Everyone knows chiropractic adjustments relieve back, neck, and shoulder pain, but few realize that it’s key to overall wellness. When Dr. Matt adjusts the spine, he improves the central nervous system function which will allow the body to heal itself. It is amazing what the body can do!

"The power that made the body heals the body." - B.J. Palmer*

*B.J. Palmer is known as "The Developer" of Chiropractic who helped spearhead the Chiropractic movement in the 1920's and 1930s

Our chiropractic services in Marysville, WA utilize several chiropractic techniques that range from manual adjusting to activator instrument adjusting.

It is time for our Quarters for a Cause Campaign!

Oh, sugar.
If you have managed to make it through the holidays with minimal sugar, you have done well! A tasty treat here and there is a nice indulgence, but most agree Americans eat way too MUCH sugar.

Many people will start the year with New Years' Resolutions, and while it may seem trendy, it certainly is an easy time of year to kick start some new healthy habits! You may want to increase your exercise, change your diet, cut out alcohol, reduce sugar, take more time for self care, get out and enjoy nature, spend time with friends, or... there are so very MANY positive things you can do to improve your health and wellness as we head into 2025.

Dr. Matt and Monica are taking the month of January to reduce our carb intake. Over the years, we have both experimented with keto, low carb, and even the carnivore diet. The reality is that the standard American diet is full of sugar, lacking in nutrition, and all but guaranteed to increase inflammation in your body.

Oh, sugar. If you have managed to make it through the holidays with minimal sugar, you have done well! A tasty treat here and there is a nice indulgence, but most agree Americans eat way too MUCH...

Thank you, thank you! With your help, we were able to raise $719 to donate to Save-A-Mutt during our last Quarters for a Cause campaign! If you don't know, Dr. Matt and his family had two wonderful adoption experiences with Save-A-Mutt this year! We adopted 75-lb Mantis in July 2024, and 20-lb Axel in October, 2024. It is a full house with 6 boys in the family! If you are looking for a new furry friend, we cannot recommend this wonderful organization highly enough!

Don't suffer in silence!

When the spine moves out of alignment because of repetitive stress, trauma, or growth issues, the nerve fibers suffer increased pressure and friction. As the nerves become irritated, the muscles in the back, neck, and jaw respond by becoming tight. This tightening of the muscles is a direct cause of tension headaches and neck pain.

We can help. Call today!

Migraines, tension headaches, and cluster headaches may have a spinal alignment issue as the root cause, which can be healed by chiropractic treatments and therapeutic massage, providing long-term headache relief and enhanced overall wellness for our Mary

It is time for another Quarters-For-A-Cause campaign!
There are three ways to help the amazing organization, Save-A-Mutt!
1. We will donate one quarter for every office visit.
2. We will donate $40 for every NP referral (not referred by anyone? Just mention this Facebook post and it is a referral!)
3. You can donate any spare change you have!

A triple win for our community!

One Save-A-Mutt passion is transporting moms and puppies from high-kill California shelters. They have a team of rescue people in CA that save and foster these families until transport can be arranged. Once in Washington State, they provide quarantine, fostering and vet care.

Dr. Matt and his family recently adopted Mantis from the Kung-Fu-Panda litter! He has been a wonderful addition to our family and we are so happy to support this amazing organization!

We love donating to local charitable donations! We are donating $40 for each new patient referral this month!

Chiropractic treatment has a long and successful history in treating ear infections in children and adults. Either as an alternative to antibiotics or in combination with them, your chiropractor can help remove the root causes of recurring ear infections and allow natural healing to take place.

Chiropractic care has been shown to provide relief from existing ear infections in children and adults, as well as helping prevent recurring ear infections by removing subluxation of the spine and improving immune system function.

Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine that can result in both chronic and acute pain.

Many people wonder “Can a chiropractor straighten scoliosis?” Oftentimes, scoliosis responds well to chiropractic therapy and improvements in curvature can often be measured on X-ray. However, there are times when patients use chiropractic adjustments as a supportive and pain relieving treatment, regardless of whether changes are noted!

Chiropractic care for scoliosis pain focuses on eliminating subluxations and supporting spinal health, allowing patients with scoliosis to experience less discomfort and stiffness while undergoing other treatments.
