Specialties

We look to restore your body’s ability to regulate & heal itself without drugs & surgery. In addition to hands-​on spinal adjustments, our treatments may include traction (with our state-​of-​the-​art flexion-​distraction tables to help with disc problems, scoliosis, and nerve root pain), electrical muscle stimulation to relax tight muscles, ultrasound to reduce inflammation & promote healing, and hydraulic resistance exercise equipment to tone up muscles. We also make custom orthotics. Our office has a licensed massage therapist on staff.

By consulting our office you’re taking an exciting first step toward better health. Traditional health care focuses on germs and symptoms, while chiropractic care produces results by helping your nervous system work the way it should to improve your health. Our examination includes assessing joint motion and how it effects your nervous system and muscles; Digital x-​ray, thermography and a 3D laser scan of your feet may also be performed, if indicated.

Meet the Business Owner

Richard E.

Business Owner

Dr. Eggert’s initial interest in natural health care was nutrition — he actually earned both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in nutrition, graduating at the top of his class in both. He then worked for 2 years in a hospital as a clinical nutritionist, but found that a hospital setting was not the ideal environment in which to teach people about natural alternatives to drugs and surgeries!

Dr. Eggert’s sister and one of his good friends were chiropractors… after seeing them for preventive care, it became readily apparent that chiropractic and nutrition provided the perfect combination for a more complete natural health care approach.

Dr. Eggert graduated with honors from New York Chiropractic College in 1986. He also completed an additional 1 ½ years study in sports injuries… so in addition to a general practice, he is certified in the treatment of sports injuries.
