You’ve done everything they told you to do.
You saw your primary doctor. You went to physical therapy. You iced, stretched, rested, even tried injections or muscle relaxers. Maybe you even bounced from one provider to the next, hoping someone would explain why you’re still in pain.
And yet, no one ever found the real problem.
If that’s your story, you’re not alone. We see patients like you every day — people who’ve been told their MRI looks normal, their symptoms don’t match the scans, or worse… that it’s probably just stress.
But we take a different approach.
At Advanced Health Chiropractic, we don’t stop at standard imaging or trial-and-error care. We focus on how the spine moves — because movement is where the injury often hides. Specifically, we’re looking for signs of spinal ligament injury, which causes instability — small shifts in how the bones move during motion that lead to big, ongoing symptoms.
These injuries don’t show up on a static MRI or regular X-ray. That’s why we use stress imaging, combined with CRMA™ (Computerized Radiographic Mensuration Analysis), to test the spine under real conditions. Every report is interpreted by a board-certified medical radiologist trained in ligament injury, so the results are both accurate and usable — for care and for documentation.
Once we know exactly what’s injured, we build a recovery plan based on the data. This isn’t guesswork. It’s a roadmap — one that helps reduce inflammation, stabilize the spine, and guide you back to real healing
Many of our patients say the same thing:
“This is the first time someone really explained what’s going on.”
If no one else has found the reason behind your pain, don’t give up. You don’t need another round of “try this and wait.” You need someone to look deeper.
We’re here when you’re ready.
If you’ve been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or left without answers, you’re not out of options.
We specialize in finding what other providers miss — and creating real recovery plans around it.
