The Shephard Chiropractic team has spent over 30 years refining their craft and expertise. Your comfort and care are of the utmost importance to us and we’ve aligned our practice directly with our patient’s needs. Our team is dedicated to treating all of you, not just your specific injuries and pain by looking at the full story behind your symptoms.
We will work to gain your trust with our experience, our knowledge, our solutions, and most importantly: our care.
The ArthroStim™ is a handheld, controlled force adjustment tool. In this safe, effective method, each of the 12-14 thrusts per second are pinpointed to a specific area, triggering a healing response in muscle, ligament and osseous (bone) tissue.
With multiple doctors and scheduling based around our hours and your availability, we want to make sure you can see us when you need to.
There is no one-size-fits-all at Shephard Chiropractic. Your plan is unique to you and may be shortened or lengthened based on your progress.
In the case of car accidents or worker’s compensation, we know the paperwork can be stressful. We will work with your healthcare team and help you navigate the insurance / legal process.
Instrument adjustments are ideal for those with severe pain, or those concerned with neck safety. It avoids typical pre-adjustment tension or post-adjustment soreness that may occur with traditional manipulation.
A traumatic injury can lead to long wait times before you can begin chiropractic care. Instrument adjustments can be gently and precisely performed on patients while they are sitting, standing or in any position.
Many of our patients are relieved to find the efficacy of a small tool far outweighs the benefits of traditional manipulation, citing improved comfort, increased range of motion, and/or improved muscle strength soon after their treatment.
Traditional adjustments can impact the same body differently, depending on the day. Controlled force adjustments allow our providers and you to know what to expect every time.
Every chiropractic clinic operates a bit differently. At Shephard Chiropractic clinic, we use gentle, targeted methods for our chiropractic adjustments and we treat the whole body. In addition, our treatment plans are custom to your condition.
At Shephard Clinic, we have two major concerns: What’s wrong? Can chiropractic help you? Every patient receives a thorough exam and discovery process. At the end of a consultation, we will guide you to the proper choice: chiropractic, or, if chiropractic will not be beneficial for your condition, we will make a recommendation for a different specialist. Additionally, our in-house digital x-ray provides clear and immediate insight to help you.
With a strong diagnosis, treatment can begin that is specific to your needs. We’ll provide you with as much information as we can about your underlying structural problem, so that you can choose the direction of your care, knowing that any option we provide is safe, effective and affordable. Often times treatments can include chiropractic adjustments, massage, cold laser therapy, and at home exercises.
Not every condition needs the same treatment plan. Our treatment plans will target your primary concerns and include a schedule that is reasonable and necessary. Ensuring that you have every opportunity to reach maximum recovery as quickly as possible. The treatment plan is designed to fit in with your life, including any insurance you have that covers chiropractic. It is important to remember, many conditions didn’t show up overnight. It can take time and commitment to make a full recovery.
