Its becoming the in thing to do now days, especially in Ohio. Why?  OPIOIDS!

2019 will be the year of the Chiropractor!  With opioid overdose claiming thousands of people each year in Ohio alone, doctors are now being told to find a course of treatment that does not include drugs. They are being told to try conservative care first.  They have found us.  A Chiropractor is considered a primary health care physician that can diagnose and administer treatment without any referral scripts.  Our specialty is soft tissue.  Everything from strain sprains and pulled muscles to herniated discs. Chiropractors are experts in treating these types of injuries without drugs or surgery.  For this reason  MDs are sending patients to Chiropractors more than ever and hospitals are bringing Chiropractors on as staff.
