Jasz Couldn’t Turn Her Head… but Now She Can.
Recently we had an interesting case come through our doors and with our practice members’ permission, we documented how it started and how it’s going. Dr. Derek sat down with her to discuss a little bit about her case so you get to see firsthand, before and after, how chiropractic has helped her.

About a month ago I had a rib pop out of place. As a construction worker, it made work very painful and challenging. I called around town and Dr.Larsen was the only one in town that was able to see me for a same day appointment. He helped me immensely that day. I've gone back several times since for follow up visits and he always provides great care.

Dr. Derek is very friendly and professional. Went in for neck pain but I also have chronic migraines. After just a few sessions I’ve felt a significant change in pain and have less frequent migraines. He’s very good and making you comfortable and explaining what he’s doing. Plus a little puppy love from buckwheat, the lovely assistant, always makes my day!

Chiropractic FAQs
What are the health benefits of chiropractic care?
The wise Hippocrates once said – “Look well to the spine for the cause of dis-ease”.
‘Chiropractic care is more than just making the pain disappear. It is about learning, understanding, and taking care of your body to improve your quality of life.’
Helping with back pain is just one of many, but the advantages don’t end there. We realize that health is more than just the absence of pain. It’s also about the ability to enjoy life to the fullest.
How can a chiropractor help me?
“Chiropractic is… a system of adjusting the segments of the spinal column… for the correction of the cause of dis-ease.” ( Chiropractic Text Book, R. W. Stephenson,) As we go through life we all experience trauma, that trauma can be physical, emotional, or chemical. We typically are able to adapt to that trauma and carry on with life. Occasionally our bodies experience trauma that is too much to handle and we cannot adapt well. When this happens the body stores that trauma and then requires a bit of encouragement to overcome the trauma. It is in these situations where chiropractic can help by giving the body encouragement through a gentle adjustment. With that encouragement, the body’s restorative and recuperative properties are enhanced and the body can begin to heal more optimally. Through consistent chiropractic care, we are able to help the body achieve its optimal function. Allow us the opportunity to help you find your 100%.
Do you accept insurance?
At the moment, we do not accept insurance.
Do you do walk-ins?
We do take walk-ins, but be sure to call before coming in to make sure Dr. Derek didn’t take a fishing break.
