The word "chiropractic" comes from the Greek words cheir (hand) and praxis (action) and literally means "done by hand."

Testimonials
Reviews By Our Satisfied Clients
"I have been going to Dr. Thompson for about 1 1/2 years. He and Julie are great. I initially went in because of constant neck and back pain and I was leaning heavily to the right. Dr Thompson explained Activator Methods Technique to me and he worked with me to get me where I am today. I has worked wonders. I now stand up straight and only have occasional lower back pain which is treated on maintenance schedule. I feel so much better and I feel that my overall health has improved. I highly recommend Dr John Thompson."

"This was my first experience with any chiropractor. So I was quite apprehensive. I came to Dr. Thompson because he uses the Activator Method of treatment and I was needing relief from sciatic nerve pain. Amazingly I felt some relief after only 3 treatments and now 10 treatments later later I am pain free. It seems like a miracle to me."
