"sitting......increase(s) the load (on spinal discs) by about 30% in relation to standing upright."

"... it is recommended that one's sitting posture should have a lordotic lumbar spinal curve similar to that achieved when standing."

I wanted to share this incredible pilot study. Basically, chiropractic adjustments of the neck, lowered blood pressure "similar to the use of two-drug combination therapy"! Results showed an average decrease in systolic pressure by 17mmHg, and diastolic by 10mmHg.

When I first read this years ago, I actually called Dr. Bakris to ask why this was never repeated with a larger group, and he said simply "no money".

Our Story

We are a multidisciplinary healthcare center offering top-quality chiropractic, acupuncture, McKenzie method, physical therapy and functional / nutritional medicine. Additionally, we offer VAX-D therapy - a patented, FDA-approved spinal decompression therapy that treats spinal disorders causing neck or back pain.

At the American Back Center, we’re a big healthy family - and you're a part of the family as soon as you walk through our doors! Our mission is to improve your health through conservative, non-invasive and above all, effective methods. With so many disciplines under one roof, we use a team approach towards a patient’s health. Often a combined, multi-perspective method is more effective than a singular therapy. Whatever works for the patient is what we’ll do! And with a focus on efficiency and effective patient education, we aim to limit visits and in turn, cost.
