Injury is inevitable. All of us will experience some form of trauma at some point in our lives, be it from a childhood fall, chronic poor posture, repetitive movements, sporting activities or a car accident. Chiropractic treatment can help with these types of injuries by eliminating pain, improving mobility, restoring proper biomechanics, and maintaining optimal nervous system function.

Chiropractic is a non-invasive, natural form of health care that focuses on the health and function of the entire body, paying particular attention to the spinal column and its' related structures. Your spinal column is a series of moveable bones extending from your skull to your hips.

These bones, which are held together by muscles, tendons, and ligaments, serve to support your body, allow movement, and protect your nervous system (brain and spinal cord).Your nervous system is designed to maintain the optimal health of your body through careful monitoring and control of all your body's cells, tissues, and organs.
Having been raised in a teacher's family, Dr. Houlgrave recognizes the importance of knowledge and education. He encourages all his patients to ask questions. Dr. Houlgrave regularly uses charts, diagrams, and spine models to educate his patients about their ailments, about how he can help them, and about what they can do to help prevent future occurrences.

My whole life I have been sceptical of seeing a Chiropractor. For a few months now I have been having back issues and about a month ago started getting Piriformis issues accompanied by severe Sciatica pain. Dr. Houlgrave uses the "drop table" technique and after 3 non aggressive adjustments I have my quality of life back! My sciatica is gone and I actually feel taller. I'm walking straighter.
Thank you Dr. Houlgrave!

Patient care is wonderful here. I was given detailed explanations of what was going on and consulted along each step to make sure improvements were occurring. Dr Houlgrave insists on a complete care plan and makes it clear he is not in it to have me returning unless i'm finding benefit and improvement. Amazing place, highly recommend.
