Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care that keeps you moving for life.

Millions of nerve signals travel your spine every second, controlling movement, healing, and the function of every organ. When spinal joints lose alignment or motion, they irritate those nerves — and you feel it as pain, stiffness, headaches, or fatigue. Pain-masking drugs quiet the alarm. Chiropractic care fixes what set it off.

Treat the cause, not the symptom.


We locate the source of your symptoms and correct the underlying dysfunction so the problem doesn't keep coming back. You'll get a complete examination, a clear report of findings, and answers to every question before care begins.

The Impulse IQ® difference


Adjustments with the Impulse IQ instrument feel like a light tapping — no twisting, no cracking. The instrument reads your body's response in real time and stops when the correction is complete. Most patients feel relief and improved mobility right away; many describe a calm sense of well-being after treatment.

Cold Laser Therapy

Healing at the cellular level


Low-energy laser light (Erchonia) stimulates cellular repair and natural pain relief at trigger points — a painless, drug-free way to accelerate healing. Emerging photobiomodulation research suggests cold laser also promotes brain health, supporting cellular energy production and healthy neurological function.

"Pain is optional."
— Dr. Patricia Sheppard

Common Questions

What patients ask us


Does the adjustment hurt or make a cracking sound?

No. Dr. Sheppard adjusts with the Impulse IQ instrument, which delivers a light, controlled tap. There is no twisting and no cracking, and the instrument reads your body's response and stops when the correction is complete.

Can a chiropractor help with sciatica?

Sciatic pain is usually a nerve being irritated somewhere along its path. We examine to find where that is happening, correct the mechanical cause, and use cold laser therapy where it helps the tissue settle — rather than only quieting the pain.

Do you treat headaches and migraines?

Yes. Headaches frequently trace back to the joints and muscles of the upper neck, and sometimes to food or environmental reactivity. We examine for both.

I was in a car accident. Should I be seen even if I feel fine?

It is worth an examination. Soft-tissue and joint injuries from a collision often declare themselves days or weeks later, and they are easier to resolve early.

How many visits will I need?

That depends on what the examination finds and how long the problem has been there. You will get a written plan with a clear expectation before care begins — not an open-ended commitment.

What is cold laser therapy?

Low-level laser light (we use Erchonia devices) that stimulates cellular repair and drug-free pain relief at trigger points. It is painless and takes a few minutes.
