Functional Analysis Chiropractic 

Doctors John and Judy utilize a chiropractic analysis method known as FACT, our focus is to optimize the efficiency of two of the most important functions of the brain: breathing and movement.  Evaluation of your movement by observing gait (walking) allows us to uncover where you may be using up extra energy with inefficient compensation patterns.   Breathing patterns are observed with the intent to remove any restrictions, problems with our frame can alter the ability for each breath to 'fall' in, and cause unwell fatigue.
