Chiropractic Care
Natural health solutions that keep your body in motion

Healing Therapies
At Align we offer effective, relaxing, cutting edge therapies to boost your wellness
Sunlighten mPulse Infrared Sauna
We can incorporate our full-spectrum infrared sauna therapy into your treatment plan to decrease pain and muscle spasms and to speed up recovery time. Infrared sauna heat penetrates tissue, joints and muscles to relieve anything from minor aches and pains to chronic pain conditions. Infrared light has the ability to penetrate deep into our bodies, which in turn produces a host of anti-aging health benefits, like detoxification, weight loss, cellular health, lowering blood pressure, and simply relaxation.
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF)
PEMF uses bursts of low-level electromagnetic pulses to heal damaged tissues and bone, to relieve injury-related pain, and even to stimulate organs. The idea is that pulses at low frequencies, like those found in nature, activate the cell’s energy and encourage its natural repair mechanisms. PEMF is a well-studied, non-invasive way to approach injuries, pain, and even chronic conditions.
