Services
We’re proud to offer a wide range of evidence-based chiropractic services to patients in Scottsdale. Each of our service options are individualized, custom treatments and are all included in the cost of your appointment. Dr. Palmer will outline her treatment approach and talk about how each therapy works, what to expect, and how to optimize your outcomes at each visit.
Our foundation of care focuses on restoring proper joint motion, reducing pain, and improving overall physical function. Whether you’re managing an acute injury, dealing with chronic discomfort, or seeking better mobility, chiropractic adjustments provide safe and effective support backed by clinical research.
We integrate exercise-based rehabilitation with chiropractic care to help retrain movement patterns, strengthen weak areas, and reduce the likelihood of future injury. These treatment approaches are customized to your goals and combine corrective exercise with manual therapy for lasting results.
Manual therapy techniques compliment our treatment approach and can be utilized to alleviate symptoms. Therapies offered - Dry Needling, Cupping, Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization.
This non-invasive treatment uses acoustic pressure waves to stimulate tissue repair, reduce pain, and improve mobility. Radial Shockwave Therapy (RSWT) is often recommended for stubborn musculoskeletal conditions that haven’t fully responded to other conservative treatments. At our clinic, it’s included at no additional cost when clinically indicated.
Trigger Point Dry Needling (TPDN) targets tight knots within muscles that may be causing pain or limiting movement. By using thin, sterile needles—and sometimes adding electrical stimulation—we can help release tension, improve circulation, and restore function. This treatment is included in your care plan when appropriate.
Our Class IV laser therapy harnesses the power of light to accelerate healing and reduce inflammation. By penetrating deep into tissues, laser therapy stimulates cellular activity, enhances circulation, and supports your body’s natural recovery. It’s performed at no additional charge when beneficial for your condition.
Kinesiology tape provides gentle support for muscles and joints without restricting movement. Research shows KT tape can help reduce swelling, improve circulation, and provide feedback that aids recovery. Whether you’re returning to sport, managing a chronic condition, or seeking extra support, this technique can help you move with confidence.
" Lisa is the best! I have been seeing her to treat some chronic back and neck pain I deal with from working extensive hours at a desk and I always leave feeling refreshed.
She gives me tips to help manage the pain and stretch for in between sessions that are easy to do, while educating me on what causes the pain and how to relieve it. She’s always informative and never pushy. I always feel safe when she does the corrections! I was terrified of getting my neck cracked and I’m so glad I let her do it because it’s relieved so much pain and headaches I used to get. "
