Jacksonville Chiropractor

What types of chiropractic services do you offer at San Jose Chiropractic in Jacksonville?

At San Jose Chiropractic in the Mandarin area of Jacksonville, we offer short term chiropractic care, wellness chiropractic care, upper cervical Orthospinology, Thompson chiropractic, and auto accident injury treatment.

 

Each service is customized to the individual so we can help with both recent injuries and long standing chronic conditions. Our goal is to provide precise, gentle care that helps patients from Jacksonville, San Jose, and Mandarin feel better and function better as quickly as possible.

​

What is the difference between short term chiropractic care and wellness chiropractic care?

Short term chiropractic care focuses on helping you get out of pain and moving better when you are dealing with a recent injury or a flare up of an existing problem. Wellness chiropractic care is for people who want to maintain their results, keep their spine and nervous system healthy, and prevent issues from returning.

 

Many patients in Jacksonville start with short term care to address headaches, neck pain, low back pain, or vertigo, then choose wellness care once they are feeling better to support long term spinal health and overall well being.

​

What is upper cervical Orthospinology and how is it different from traditional chiropractic?

Upper cervical Orthospinology is a very specific chiropractic approach that focuses on the top of the spine where the head and neck meet. This area, called the craniocervical junction, has a huge impact on the brainstem, balance, muscle tone, posture, and nervous system function. Instead of adjusting the entire spine with more force, upper cervical Orthospinology uses precise analysis and gentle corrections to realign the upper neck.

 

Many patients in Mandarin and Jacksonville who are sensitive to traditional chiropractic or have not found relief elsewhere do very well with this type of care.

​

Is your chiropractic care gentle enough for people who are nervous about being adjusted?

Yes. Dr. O uses gentle upper cervical adjustments and Thompson chiropractic techniques that are very comfortable for most patients. There is no twisting of the neck and no aggressive popping. Many of our patients were nervous to see a chiropractor at first, but they are surprised at how light and precise the adjustments feel.

 

This style of care is especially helpful for seniors, people with osteoporosis, patients who have had previous spinal surgery, and anyone in Jacksonville who prefers a lower force approach.

​

How does Thompson chiropractic fit into the care you provide?

Thompson chiropractic is a technique that uses a specialized table with drop pieces that assist the adjustment. This allows Dr. O to deliver a controlled, gentle correction with less force. Thompson chiropractic can be especially helpful for issues involving the pelvis, hips, and low back.

 

When combined with upper cervical Orthospinology, it allows us to address both the top and bottom of the spine in a way that supports better alignment, posture, and movement for our Jacksonville patients.​
