Our Approach to Chiropractic Care
Every single aspect of the care we provide is focused on the nervous system, and promoting whatâs called neuroplasticity. Now thatâs a really big, nerdy word â but it simply means ensuring that the bodyâs most important system is able to rest, relax, heal, grow, and adapt. đ§
Those five things are absolutely essential to everyone, from a tiny infant whoâs supposed to be asleep more than awake, to kids and parents who need every bit of rest, recharging and resilience we can get in this crazy world.
As youâll see with our unique 5 step clinical process, everything starts with our doctor taking the time to truly listen to your concerns, working together to set goals for your care, and diving deep with the most modern technology in the world that allows us to truly assess exactly where the nervous system is stressed, stuck (subluxated), exhausted, and not functioning properly.
If that sounds too simple and too good to be true â believe us, it really is!
We take the time to explain and educate our patients each step of the way, and the path to healing, restoration, and full health and happiness for your family will be straightforward and never complicated!
Dr. Chrisi Kelly is trained in multiple adjusting techniques, allowing for personalized care for each practice member. Our neurologically-focused approach to care addresses the fact that stress on the nerves can negatively impact not just joints and muscles within the body, but different organs and other major systems as well. Analyzing your body from this root-cause approach allows the adjustment to be incredibly effective and far-reaching!
Subluxations, or areas of stress and tension within the nervous system, occur due to a variety of stressors that we encounter on a daily basis. These subluxations impact the function of our nervous system, and can ultimately build up, leading to symptoms. Our adjustments focus on finding and eliminating these areas of subluxation and stress, allowing your body to eliminate excess tension, decrease symptoms, and permit your nervous system to function properly without any interference.

Our Techniques
Â
Webster Technique
A specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment that balances the pelvis and sacrum of an expecting mama; a necessity for optimal baby positioning.
This technique requires advanced training and certification through the ICPA, and is backed by studies indicating that benefits can include a more natural, shorter and more comfortable labor + delivery. The Webster technique is safe, gentle, and effective, often allowing your baby to turn into an optimal position on their own following even a handful of adjustments.
In addition to Webster Technique certification, Dr. Chrisi Kelly utilizes training from âSpinning Babiesâ workshops in order to better serve her expecting patients. Spinning Babies is a combination of positions and exercises that are performed in the office and taught for use at-home, as to further aid in proper fetal positioning.
Â
Diversified
This hands-on technique is often what comes to mind when envisioning a âtraditional chiropractic adjustment.â Dr. Chrisi Kelly utilizes a variety of analysis techniques to determine exactly where the adjustment is needed, and will perform the adjustment using her hands, or an activator, a gentle hand-held tool, perfect for pediatric patients + other specific populations.
The technique that Dr. Chrisi Kelly chooses for your care will be thoroughly discussed with you prior to adjustment, and will be chosen based on your specific history, preference, symptoms, and goals. All of our adjustments are provided on a case-by-case basis and are highly personalized to your unique body.
Â
Instrument-Assisted & Tonal Techniques
Effective, low-force techniques that are often utilized in the office. These type of adjustments use the aid of a small handheld instrument and involve no twisting or popping. Tonal works to normalize the âtoneâ of the nervous system, helping your body to back out of itâs âfight or flightâ stress mode.
