Personalized Chiropractic & Injury Care
No two patients experience pain or injury in exactly the same way. Recommendations at Mount Prospect Health Center are based on the patient's health history, examination findings, functional limitations, symptoms, goals, and clinical appropriateness.
Depending on the evaluation, conservative care may include:
- Chiropractic adjustments
- Manual techniques
- Soft-tissue care

- Strengthening
