Care that starts with the joint
What we actually do on the table — and how a first visit usually runs on Hilltop Drive.
Spinal adjustments
Hands-on work for neck, mid-back, and low back when a segment feels stuck, guarded, or sharp with motion.
New patient exam
History, orthopedic screens, and a plain-language plan before the first adjust — about 45 minutes.
Soft-tissue prep
Light muscle work around the joint so the adjustment isn’t fighting a hard guard.
Hip & pelvis checks
When stairs, sitting, or one-sided sports load the low back through the hip.
Maintenance visits
Shorter check-ins for desk weeks, long drives up I-5, and weekend yard work.
Home mobility cues
Two or three moves you can do between visits — nothing that needs a gym membership.
How a new patient hour usually unfolds
Listen
What flared, when it started, what makes it louder.
Screen
Motion and simple orthopedic checks on the table.
Adjust
Work the segments that need it — gentle if you’re guarded.
Plan
What to expect next and whether another visit helps.
