Annual Wellness Exams and Physical
Taking preventative measures is always better than having to seek medical treatment. That’s why it’s recommended to have regular annual physicals, which are typically fully covered by insurance, to promote preventive care.
If you’re experiencing discomfort and back pain, chiropractors may be able to help you find pain relief. Unlike other medical professionals who may rely on medication or surgery, chiropractors focus on identifying and addressing the underlying causes of your discomfort through non-invasive techniques. By manipulating the spine and other body parts, chiropractors aim to promote healing and improve overall physical function.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet Rich Plasma therapy is effective for treating old and new injuries, as it stimulates the body’s natural healing process. The procedure involves drawing a few vials of blood, from which the plasma and platelets are separated from the red blood cells. The platelet-rich plasma is then extracted into a syringe with a special growth and nerve factor activating agent and injected into the affected area. Generally, a series of three injections is administered to achieve optimal results.
Trigger Point & Joint Injections
Many individuals who have knots in their back and do not find relief from chiropractic, massage, and acupuncture treatments have reported that trigger point injection administered by a medical doctor brought them relief. This procedure involves inserting material via a needle into the affected area to alleviate pain from trigger points.
Osteopathic Manipulation
As trained osteopathic doctors, our gentle manipulation techniques can treat muscles, ligaments, and bones. By correcting and re-aligning your body, we can stimulate the natural healing process without resorting to drugs or invasive procedures.
Nutrition & Medical Weight Management
HEALTH ATLAST focuses on realistic lifestyle modifications to treat diabetes, high blood pressure, and arthritis. Our doctors create personalized regimens centered on healthy weight management and body composition rather than relying on medication.
Hyalgan Knee Injections
If you’re experiencing knee pain and haven’t found relief from over-the-counter painkillers or physical therapy, HYALGAN® might be a viable treatment option for you. This solution contains a natural substance called hyaluronate which is found in the fluid that lubricates and cushions your knee joint. By injecting HYALGAN® into your knee joint, you can experience pain relief and added cushion. The treatment consists of 5 injections given at weekly intervals, providing long-lasting relief.
prolotherapy for sports injuries
If you have suffered a sports injury, prolotherapy may be a treatment option for you. This method can help trigger a natural healing response without the use of steroids. By injecting a sugar solution and lidocaine into the affected area, prolotherapy creates mild irritation and temporarily stimulates low-grade inflammation. This process reactivates the healing process and is typically administered in a series of 3-6 injections, spaced 1-2 weeks apart. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if prolotherapy is the right treatment option for your specific injury.
