Chiropractic Health Care is the #1 Alternative Health Care discipline in the United States, and the leader of the Wholistic Health Care movement. Chiropractic works on the premise that all disease is caused by one of three reasons: structural, nutritional or emotional imbalance. Doctors of Chiropractic deal directly with structural imbalance by detecting and removing vertebral subluxations in the spinal column. A subluxation is defined as any malposition or irregular movement pattern of spinal vertebrae, which can cause disruptions in the normal nerve flow. Subluxations not only cause pain and discomfort, but also have far reaching effects on the functioning of normal body processes. Chiropractors use Spinal Adjustments to gently restore normal vertebral motion and position, thereby reducing nerve interference and allowing the body to work at optimum function. Chiropractors also concern themselves with making sure their patients are eating the right foods, taking proper nutritional supplements and eliminating toxins to maximize the nutritional balance that is so important for overall health. 

While chiropractic helps restore proper joint motion, Physical Therapy is focused on strengthening and balancing the associated soft tissue. This means muscles, ligaments, tendons and capsular structures. Our facility is equipped with passive modalities such as Electric Muscle Stimulation, Ultrasound, Russian Stimulation, TENS units, Hot/Cold packs and Traction. These modalities are used to reduce muscular spasm and inflammation and restore normal muscle tone. Once this is accomplished, the treatment will be directed towards functional restoration in the form of therapeutic exercises. Our facility is equipped with state of the art rehabilitation equipment, and treatment is supervised by a licensed Physical Therapist at all times for all health rehabilitation services for Nassau and Suffolk County . The therapists will teach the patients how to strengthen their damaged areas safely, and monitor their programs throughout their treatment program. 

Some of latest researches in the field of clinical nutrition points out that certain foods are better for certain blood types. This amazing discovery might be able to give us an exact blueprint of what foods are best for us as individuals. Our office also helps outline nutritional programs for specific conditions such as weight loss, detoxification, muscle building, athletic performance and overall wellness. We also carry a full line of nutritional supplement products and will help you make an educated choice as to which supplements are best for you.
