Chiropractic Care
Our spine is our lifeline, and anything that negatively affects our spine can negatively affect our health. When joints in your spine don’t move as they should, they begin to degenerate. Your body may compensate for this immobility, and you may not even notice it at first. But when one joint doesn’t move correctly, it will affect other joints, and eventually pain and dysfunction can result.
At J W Schlingman Chiropractic, our goal is to correct the specific joints that aren’t moving properly. This improves circulation and releases muscle tension in those areas, which helps make the spine more flexible and mobile.

Custom Care Plans
Dr. Schlingman designs custom care plans for each patient, based on their individual needs and goals. He uses many adjusting techniques, such as
- Manual, hands-on adjustments. This is a traditional adjustment technique that results in the “popping” sound many people associate with chiropractic.
- Drop technique to establish joint movement with no twisting or popping. This uses a special table that has drop mechanisms.
