Our Story
I spend quality time with each patient and attend to your Chiropractic needs personally. I am very personable, easy-going, and enjoy providing health-improving treatment to my patients. Chiropractic treats the whole body not just what aches or hurts without drugs or surgery. Chiropractors use the integration of your muscles and joints, nerves, exercise instruction, nutrition, and stress management in treatment plans. Chiropractors recognize that many factors affect your health, including exercise, nutrition, sleep, environment, and heredity. Chiropractic focuses on maintaining your health naturally to help your body resist disease, rather than simply treating the symptoms of disease.
Chiropractic care emphasizes joint health and attempts to optimize patients' range of motion. Chiropractic is a natural method of healing that stimulates the body's communication system to work more effectively to initiate, control. and coordinate the various functions of the cells, organs, and systems of the body.
Chiropractic works by restoring your body's ability to be healthy. When under the proper control of your nervous system, all cells, tissues, and organs of your body are designed to resist disease and ill health. Chiropractic works to locate and remove interferences (subluxations, misaligned vertebrae) to your nervous system.
Dr. Michael Mathey is a certified Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) practitioner.
The NKT system is a great fit with the already natural healing process of Chiropractic, Treat the cause of dysfunction, not the symptoms.
NeuroKinetic Therapy® corrective movement system addresses the cause of pain – dysfunctional movement patterns stored in the brain.
NeuroKinetic Therapy® corrective movement system is a sophisticated bodywork modality that can be used as both an assessment and rehabilitative technique for low back pain, neck pain, carpal tunnel, and other injuries.
NeuroKinetic Therapy® corrective movement system is based on the premise that when an injury has occurred, certain muscles shut down or become inhibited, forcing other muscles to become overworked. By applying light pressure that the client then resists, the practitioner can evaluate the strength or weakness of each muscle, revealing the sources of injury and retraining the client’s body to remove the compensation patterns.

Dr. Michael Mathey is certified in Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA)™. This adds yet another important diagnostic tool to the services available through Sports and Family Chiropractic Care.
Pain changes everything. SFMA™ is a movement-based diagnostic system that finds the cause of pain - not just the source - by logically breaking down dysfunctional movement patterns in a structured, repeatable assessment. This concept is better known as regional interdependence - how seemingly unrelated problems are actually driving the dysfunction.
This diagnostic system works well with chiropractic in working towards healing and pain relief without the use of drugs or surgery.
