More than "JUST" an adjustment...
Dr. Melchizedek's approach to treatment of the musculoskeletal system involves analysis of proper muscle functioning. This is achieved through specific muscle testing in order to determine whether the muscle’s functional reflex is working properly or not. A muscle’s dysfunctional reflex inhibits its ability to contract properly and leads to an inability to adapt to various movements. In other words, the muscle has a “weakness” from the dysfunctional reflex. Your body is then forced to compensate for this “weakness”, adding increased stress on “strong” muscles, tendons and ligaments. These dysfunctional muscles leave you vulnerable to injury and inhibit your optimal performance while you play sports, work, or perform daily activities. You might be wondering, “If I have “weak” inhibited muscles, then can’t I just work out to make them stronger and avoid injury that way?” If this were true, then professional athletes would never suffer from injury other than from direct trauma.
With our advanced treatment techniques, we are able to test to see how many muscles in your body are functioning, and how many are inhibited. Once we understand exactly what is wreaking havoc on your body, we will work to restore muscle function in your inhibited muscles, allowing your body to heal and function properly. This is something you will see and feel. Being able to restore muscle function is why athletes come from other parts of the country for treatment.

The truth behind chiropractic care...
If you have ever been told that you needed to see a chiropractor every week for the rest of your life, there is a root problem that is not being identified. If your adjustments are not holding after the first treatment, there is a deeper reason as to why. If you only address the joints, but do not properly address the surrounding muscles, the joint will continue to lock up, and you will need the same adjustment on a regular basis. This creates an irritating, painful cycle, keeping you enslaved to your chiropractor for regular, and temporary, pain relief. This is why you MUST find and treat the source of the issue, which is most likely the muscles. When you properly treat the surrounding muscles that create the subluxation of the joint, the muscles will be strong enough to function properly, and the joint will no longer subluxate/lock up.
Following the breadcrumbs that God laid out for him, Dr. Melchizedek has traveled across the country, working with the nation's best doctors to understand what it takes to truly heal someone. He has brought this extensive knowledge and experience into his practice, so that he can give his patients the best care possible. Dr. Melchizedek is continually learning and growing in his practice, making sure his treatment is always as advanced and in-depth as possible.
