Chiropractic Care

We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Timothy Sharp has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment and is continually upgrading his knowledge.


Massage Therapy

At Liberty Chiropractic our massage therapists help retrain old negative holding patterns in the muscles that have shortened from stress, overuse or bad posture.  Therapeutic massage helps to rid the body of toxins and lactic acid.  This is done by manually draining the lymphatic system and allowing the lymphatics to aid the body in its fight against chronic inflammation, viruses, bacteria, and other diseases.


Spinal Decompression Therapy

Spinal decompression therapy is a beneficial treatment at Liberty Chiropractic that has improved the quality and effectiveness of the care we offer. Distraction and inversion of the spine pulls water and nutrients into the spinal discs in order to regain disc space, decrease pain, and increase mobility.

People that haven't been helped by other forms of treatment, even those with failed spinal surgeries, are getting relief from this therapy. Alone or in conjunction with chiropractic adjustments, decompression allows us to affect the deepest structures of the spine and help even the most difficult problems such as, herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, spondylolisthesis, scoliosis, muscle spasm and even swelling.


                               Erchonia Laser

 
We Are Excited To Announce We Are Now Offering A Touchless, Painless Treatment for Chronic Pain, no Pain, no side-effects,                              no downtime.  

Erchonia® laser technology is designed to effectively target muscles and tissues and promote natural healing. Low-level lasers stimulate the body’s light-sensitive components to produce an effect similar to photosynthesis in plants — the cells’ mitochondria are stimulated, encouraging the cell to produce more ATP naturally.

With Erchonia’s handheld red laser treatment device, you get more than just a typical cold laser. We can now treat more conditions with a single device and create a more personalized treatment regimen for you.

The Erchonia red laser, operating at a wavelength of 635nm, has been proven effective in relieving chronic pain such as neck and shoulder pain. The healing properties of red laser pain treatments provide patients with a safer, healthier alternative to drugs and corrective surgery.

Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave treatments are non invasive and promote accelerated recovery of injured soft tissue, bone, heel and joint pain.  

A shockwave is an intense, but very short energy wave traveling faster than the speed of sound.  Therapy sessions are short, provide successful relief of chronic pain, able to restore mobility, have no side effects and are available at a reasonable cost.

Conditions that can be treated by Shockwave Therapy with an outstanding 75% - 95% Success Rate are:

  • Plantar Fascitis
  • Achilles Tendinopathy
  • Scar Tissue
  • Tennis Elbow
  • Jumpers Knee
  • Rotator Cuff Tendinitis

  • Non Healing Ulcers

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.


                           Lifestyle Advice

We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most.

                               Nutritional Counseling       

We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient´s return to optimal health.  Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for "you"?  Dr. Timothy Sharp can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.
