Chiropractic Care
Has chronic pain been holding you back from living your best life? You are not the only one. The American Chiropractic Association reports that roughly 31 million Americans experience pain at any given time. We tend to forget that the body is a complicated structure. It has hundreds of bones, ligaments, and muscles.
Back pain, neck pain, and shoulder pain generally occur when something is off in the way your spinal joints, muscles, discs, and nerves fit together and move. A lot is riding on your spinal column since it’s your body’s primary structural support. Its main purpose is to help keep you balanced enough to stand upright but flexible enough to make various movements. So, it is not surprising that so many people experience multiple forms of pain from time to time.
When it comes to modern chiropractic care, it assumes that misalignment in the spine results in pain. Chiropractic care is a patient-focused, non-invasive, hands-on therapy that focuses on the spine, muscles, joints, and the nervous system. Chiropractors can diagnose issues that affect your body’s movement and get to the root cause of the problem.

I have never been more welcomed and felt like family than at any other doctor's office that I have been to. The moment you walk into the doctor's lounge you are greeted by the most pleasant medical receptionist on this side of the planet. The professionalism of this staff and the care shown by the doctor is why I gave them 5 stars.
They helped me to heal after getting whiplash from a hit and run accident. They also worked with on how to pay for session. Definitely one of the best chiropractor experiences I’ve had.
After an incident about 2 months ago I was not able to work due to low back pain and right leg numbness. My orthopedic Dr put me on some pills to make me even more drowsy and sleepy all day instead of helping me with the pain to be able to go back to work and I was also referred to a physical therapist in Washington DC for pain management. After 1 month and a half going there 4 times a week there was only very minimal relieve so I decided to talk to my attorney to be seen by another provider in the area. Then I found Dr Gela, she is very knowledgeable and professional and her staff are very friendly. They provided me with the transportation for every visits since I have no ride at this moment. Dr Gela was able to help me walk pain free in 5 visits and I returned to work after being out of work for almost 2 months. I highly recommend pain and rehab center if you are suffering from injuries.
