Auto Accidents

It's always a good idea to consult with a chiropractor after being involved in any sort of auto accident. No matter how minor of an incident it may have been, any kind of collision can cause whiplash, back injuries, or soft tissue injuries, all of which can be treated by a chiropractor.

Sports/Recreational Injuries

A sports injury as a teenager is what lead to Dr. Kennedy’s passion for chiropractics. For athletes, chiropractic treatment can not only help treat existing injuries, but it can also help to prevent future injuries. Chiropractors ensure bones are lined up and balanced which in turn helps relieve tension in the body allowing it to perform better and be less prone to injury. Dr. Kennedy is a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician.
