Chiropractic Care
Our doctors have years of training, expertise and experience in helping patients get pain relief for back pain, neck pain, headaches and other related conditions originating from the spine. Techniques can be modified for all ages and health care need. Chiropractic care can even be used to prevent injuries and help you achieve total health or wellness. Boehm Family Chiropractic offers three phases of care:
Acute Care: acute phase care is for intensive pain with inflammation and swelling. Treatment frequency is typically 2-3 times per week for 4-8 weeks.
Continuing Care: as pain decreases, the goal of continuing care is spinal stabilization and tissue healing. Patients would typically receive treatment 1-2 times per week for 1-2 months
Wellness Care: if your goal is optimal health and optimum function, we recommend wellness care once your condition has resolved. Treatment frequency depends on your wellness goals but typically every 4-6 weeks.

Corrective Exercises
At Boehm Family Chiropractic, we teach our patients how to perform special exercises which can help strengthen and correct the irregularities in their body which may be causing pain. Many of these corrective exercises can actually be performed in the comfort of your own home to help improve the effectiveness of your treatment and retrain muscle imbalances.
Lifestyle Advice
While our chiropractors will address each patient’s specific condition with chiropractic care, we often find it helpful to “coach” our patients towards achieving a healthier lifestyle. For example, there may be certain activities that you should avoid or do differently to prevent yourself from unintentionally aggravating your particular health challenges. Lifestyle advice can include proper lifting techniques, recommendations for sleep and sitting positions, work place ergonomics, proper footwear and nutritional support and recommendations.

Massage Therapy
Massage therapy does more than make you feel good, it can actually help your body achieve balance and health. Massage therapy offers a natural treatment approach which actually relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. We have an on-site certified massage therapist available by appointment.
