Services & Techniques

At McDaniel Chiropractic Center, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our Middlebury office.

Adjustments

We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are safe, comfortable and more effective than ever before. As Doctors of Chiropractic, Dr. Jim and Dr. Julia McDaniel have years of training and experience in spinal adjustments.

Corrective Spinal Stabilization Exercises

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These rehabilitative exercises can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%.

Low Level Laser Therapy (Cold Laser)

Our practice utilizes the FDA approved ML 830 Cold Laser. Low level lasers, also known as cold lasers, are the cutting edge non-thermal, non-invasive method for the treatment of a variety of pain syndromes, acute and chronic injuries and repetitive motion disorders such as carpel tunnel syndrome. Cold laser therapy has been studied and successfully used around the world for over 25 years. Many top athletes, including Lance Armstrong, consider cold laser therapy an integral part of their regime for the treatment of injuries as well as for performance enhancement. Click HERE for more information.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound is a therapeutic modality which uses high-frequency sound waves to treat regions of joint and soft tissue injuries. Ultrasound creates a mild yet deep penetrating heat which increases blood flow, relaxes muscles, and speeds the healing of the tissues. Ultrasound can often help shoulder, elbow and sports related injuries.

Interferential Electro-Therapy

Interferential therapy is most often used for pain reduction and to aid in reducing the swelling of soft tissues. Ligament sprains, muscle strains and spasms often respond quite well to this therapy. Most patients find the interferential therapy to be quite comfortable and relaxing. We have even had patients fall asleep during the treatment!

Intersegmental Traction

An intersegmental traction table is a specialized treatment table which induces passive motion to the spinal joints and discs to increase mobility, circulation and help restore necessary motion and elasticity to the spine.

Nutritional Counseling

We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient's return to optimal health. Both Dr. Jim and Dr. Julia have competed in natural bodybuilding and have a wealth of information on diet, nutrition and supplementation.

Spinal & Postural Screenings/Lectures

Posture and spinal screenings can reveal important health information and unlock the door to improved health and well-being. We also lecture on a wide variety of health and wellness related topics.  Contact our Middlebury office today to arrange a screening or lecture at your event or workplace.

Orthotics

We use a 3-dimensional computer scan of the feet to produce a true custom orthotic. Our orthotics won't cost you an arm and a leg either!
