— Spinal Manipulation in Covington
Move your neck and back with less pain and stiffness.
Spinal manipulation is a hands-on treatment for stiff or painful joints in the neck, middle back, or low back. We use a quick, controlled movement to help a joint move better. It is only used when it is safe and fits your treatment plan.
When stiffness keeps changing how you move.
Our team first checks your pain, movement, strength, and health history. Spinal manipulation is not right for every person or every type of pain. If it fits, it may be used to help you move more easily and take the next step in rehab.

Your neck or back feels hard to turn, bend, straighten, or move through a full range.

— The Momentum Approach
Use better movement to build lasting progress.

We check how your neck, back, hips, shoulders, and muscles move during the tasks that cause pain.
Make sure manipulation is safe
We review your symptoms and health history before choosing this treatment. A gentler option may be used when needed.
