Conditions we treat
Chiropractic care and functional rehabilitation exercises work together to create safe, natural healing solutions for many conditions. We have patients from every background who benefit from our evidence-based services.
Back pain, low back pain, & pelvic pain
The spine stabilizes and allows us to do many of the movements we perform daily; without its proper function, balance is thrown off, and mobility is impaired. Finding solutions that work fast while keeping your body safe is a smart move.
Some common back-related problems include:
Pelvic pain
Lumbar disc disorders
Disc bulges
Disc herniations
Sciatica
Groin pain
Scoliosis
And more
Chiropractic care is the answer you’re looking for. Our team is experienced in building plans that meet the unique needs of each patient.
Head pain & headaches
Headaches and pain in and around the head have a way of creating disaster. Even minor discomfort can cause problems with focusing, reading, working on a computer, sleeping, and more. Often, when a minor headache starts, it builds and worsens over time.
For patients who suffer from recurring headaches, everyday life can get challenging. We’re ready to help you stave off your headaches and keep them away. We work with patients experiencing:
Migraines
Tension headaches
Chronic headaches
Stress headaches
TMJ pain
Neck pain
With so many people of all ages looking at handheld devices regularly, neck pain is becoming increasingly common. Not only that, but poorly designed remote workstations and everyday stress seem to be taking a toll. Neck health should be a priority if you’re experiencing discomfort.
Reasons for neck pain include:
Muscle strains
Cervical disc disorders
Thoracic outlet syndrome
Whiplash
Text neck
And more
Our methods will increase comfort and give you strengthening guidance so your neck can support you better.
Whiplash
Whiplash occurs with the sudden, violent rocking of the head forward and backward. The aggressive neck jerk strains and pulls the soft tissues contributing to pain and motion loss.
You can get whiplash by:
Being rear-ended by another vehicle
A forceful blow, hit, or fall
Sporting or exercise injuries
And more
Arm & shoulder pain
Losing mobility in our arms and shoulders can make even the slightest movement intolerable. Finding a safe, natural solution quickly will allow you to confidently return to your everyday movements. We work with patients with impaired shoulders due to improper use, overuse, traumatic events, and more.
Some reasons your shoulder or arm may have discomfort include:
Tendonitis
Elbow injury
Carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist, and hand injury
Nerve entrapment
And more
Hip pain, sciatica, & leg discomfort
Hip and leg pain can stem from various injuries and can make it difficult to move, impeding our ability to safely exercise, work, and sleep. The severity of the injuries differs; however, chiropractic care and a reliable rehabilitation process can make all the difference.
Sciatica
In some cases, sciatica is the cause of your discomfort. This appears when the sciatic nerve is compromised. Because the nerve is found through the entire bottom half of your body, it’s important to the body’s proper function that you stop the discomfort at the source. We can do that.
Other symptoms and reasons to see us for hip and leg pain include:
Thigh tightness and pain
Hip impingement
Piriformis syndrome
Radiating pain
Muscle strains
Knee and hip bursitis
IT band syndrome
Shin splints
Calf pain
Achilles tendonitis
Plantar fasciitis
Ankle sprains
And more
Knee pain
Our knees carry a lot of weight throughout the day; even when we’re sitting, our knee joints are active. Caring for our knee joints and soft tissues when hurt and learning proactive techniques to keep them out of harm’s reach will contribute to a balanced and aligned body.
We’re prepared to find a remedy to your knee discomfort so you can move properly, not depend on dangerous overcompensating, and prevent further damage.
Athletes & sports injuries
Has there ever been a time when a coach tried to change up your mechanics or get you into a specific position, and although you felt no pain, you couldn’t get into the position or complete the task? As former athletes, our team can attest to this happening.
The reason is usually due to physical limitations that hold you back; however, our chiropractic care can help. We have a thorough assessment process in place that lends to finding your limitations. Through guidance, exercise, stretching, and strengthening, we’ll help you maximize your potential and find full and correct function and support so you can reach your athletic goals.
Some solutions include:
FMS- Functional Movement Screen that helps us determine where your body needs help
TPI- Golf-related movement screening and correction process
OnBaseU- Baseball and softball assessment screening

Pediatrics
Infants and children are not adults, so we don’t treat them like adults. Young children haven’t been exposed to chronic postural stress or had time to develop tight and tender muscles and joint restrictions, so the typical treatments for adults (like chiropractic adjusting and muscle release) often won’t be needed in the same way.
Our chiropractors know how to evaluate pediatric movement development, and we use gentle and effective chiropractic adjustments and movement corrections to rehabilitate children into appropriate motor patterns.
Our Elkhorn pediatric chiropractors help with:
Asymmetrical movement patterns
Developmental movement delays
Colic
Ear infections
Reflux
Creating successful habitual movement patterns
Middle and high school sports players

Other common conditions we work with include:
Muscle pain or muscle spasms
Arthritis
I.T. Band Syndrome
Extremity pain and injuries
