At Atlantic Chiropractic and Rehabilitation, serving the 23320 zip code, our Chesapeake chiropractors offer diverse services to help patients rehabilitate after an injury and discover new levels of wellness. Chiropractors Dr. Suzanne Santjer and Dr. Eric Santjer offer both manual spinal manipulation and adjustments using the Activator technique. Our chiropractors have over 20 years of chiro experience, helping patients who suffer from headache and migraine pain, as well as helping patients recover from injuries. Our clinic also offers massage therapy and nutritional and lifestyle advice as part of our integrative care for patients in the 23320 zip code.
Chiropractic care at our Chesapeake clinic is available for people of all ages. Our chiropractors treat patients who are newborns right up to those who have lived for 100 years. The techniques used in our clinic include the traditional manual method of spinal manipulation. Dr. Suzanne Santjer is skilled in using the Activator technique, which is a low-force chiro method ideal for patients of all ages.
Both the traditional manual technique and the Activator method are useful in treating patients who suffer from pinched nerves, back and neck pain, and headache pain. The Activator tool used by Dr. Santjer allows her to adjust a patient quickly and without pain or discomfort to the patient. Modern manual adjustments used by our chiropractors are also pain-free and comfortable for patients. The techniques used in our 23320 clinic are safe and comfortable enough for pregnant women as well as infants and the elderly.
In addition to chiropractic services, our clinic also offers Chesapeake massage therapy to help patients feel their best. The therapy is beneficial for patients who suffer from migraine pain as well as pain in the muscles, such as spasms. Patients who have been injured in an auto
accident or other accident also benefit from massages, as swelling is reduced and blood flow is increased, speeding up the healing process. Both chiropractic care and massage have proven to be beneficial components of rehabilitation plans. By addressing the musculoskeletal system as well as the muscles and soft tissues, we are able to provide patients a comprehensive recovery program.
At our clinic in the 23320 zip code, our chiropractors believe in the overall health of a patient. Our chiropractors offer you advice for your day to day activities as well as tips on how to exercise to avoid pain and injury. Talk to our chiropractor to learn how your daily activities may be contributing to your condition or may be causing you pain.
If weight loss or better eating habits are your goals, our chiropractors can also help you achieve those goals. Our doctors will work with you to develop a healthy eating plan that is right for your body and needs.
Our clinic is typically able to see patients the day they schedule an appointment. Waiting to be seen after your scheduled appointment time is not an enjoyable experience, so it is our goal to see every patient within 10 minutes of their scheduled time. Additionally, we provide after hours emergency care as needed. At our clinic, we respect your time and your health.
