Services & Techniques

At Back In Action Chiropractic, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different services we offer.

Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic is the largest and best recognized alternative medicine profession.  Chiropractors practice a drug-free, hands-on approach to health care.  They have broad diagnositc skills and may also be trained to recommend therapuetic and rehabilitative excercises, as well as dietary and lifestyle counseling.  Their schooling includes a four year undergraduate degree and four more years of professional study at an accredited chiropractic college.

Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on disorders of the muscular, skeletal and nervous system and the effects these disorders have on general health.  Chiropractic care is used most often to treat complaints including,but not limited to, headaches, back pain, neck pain and pain in the arms and legs.

Corrective Exercises

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.

Spine Force

In addition to corrective excercises, it may be benificial for our patients to use a high-tech piece of equipment called the Spine Force.  Spine Force was designed and developed by leading European physicians, physical therapists, strength conditioning coaches, and experts in Biomechanics to offer state-of-the-art, three dimensional rehabilitation excercise.  The Spine Force is the only technology in the world that is designed to three dimensionally target and stregthen the 180 deep spinal and core muscles.  Click here to view a video demonstrating the Spine Force.

Lifestyle Advice

We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each our patient is a whole person, and help them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.

Nutritional Counseling

We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient´s return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you? Do you know how these supplements and vitamins interact with one another? Dr. Andrew Bakken can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.  The research done by Metagenics and First Line Therapy have convinced us the nutritional supplements they produce are top of the line.

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy offers a natural conservative treatment approach that relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our office provides specific massage and muscular therapy that is tailored to meet the patient's condition and injury. The benefits of massage therapy may include increasing blood circulation, reducing swelling, relaxing muscles, relieving muscle pain and spasms, and aid in recovery and range of motion.

Patient Education Seminars 

We realize how much information there is out there about your health and well-being and would like to share our knowledge with the community.  Back-In-Action offers short seminars at our office for educational purposes.  Please check out our blog for any up and coming seminars and give us a call or sign up on-line!  If you have a specific topic you'd like to hear about let us know.
