Treating Back Pain and Sciatica:
Here at One Body Chiropractic we take a holistic approach to treating conditions of the spine. We focus on the entire neuromusculoskeletal system, rather than simply the injury site. This includes the spine as a whole, extremity joints (hip, knee, etc), muscles, ligaments, tendons, as well as the nervous system.
