We seamlessly integrate traditional medicine with natural approaches to deliver comprehensive care that addresses the whole person. This integrative model ensures that our patients receive the scientific rigor of conventional medicine alongside the holistic benefits of natural therapies. We incorporate evidence-based practices, including diagnostics, pharmaceuticals, advanced medical imaging, and laboratory tests to accurately diagnose and treat various conditions.
Every patient receives a customized treatment plan that blends traditional medical treatments with natural therapies to address their unique health needs and goals.


Chiropractic

Chiropractic care emphasizes the body's ability to heal itself. Treatment typically involves manual therapy, manipulation of the spine and other joints to correct misalignments, relieve pain, and improve mobility. Other forms of treatment, such as exercise and nutritional counseling, may be used as well.


Massage Therapy

Massage is a manual therapy that involves manipulating the soft tissues of the body to improve health and well-being. Massage therapists use a variety of techniques, such as rubbing, kneading, tapping, stroking, squeezing, and rolling.
Massage can help with:
Pain relief and injury healing
Stress relief
Improved circulation
Lower blood pressure
General wellness


IV Therapy

IV Therapy (Intravenous Therapy) is a medical treatment that delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous line. This method ensures rapid absorption and immediate availability of nutrients, bypassing the digestive system for immediate and maximum absorption- providing a powerful tool for enhancing health and well-being.

Heather began her medical career as a technician in physical therapy and earned her BS in Exercise Physiology. She later shifted her focus, obtaining a BSN in nursing, and gained experience in various hospital departments, ultimately specializing in wound care for several years. After receiving her FNP degree, Heather worked in primary care before transitioning into dermatology. Throughout her career, she has always believed in treating the whole body rather than relying solely on medications. This philosophy led her to join her husband, Dr. Michael L. Ackerson, a chiropractic physician, in his practice, where she could fully integrate her diverse skills and passion for holistic care. With over a decade of experience in prolotherapy and regenerative injection therapy, Heather has embraced a comprehensive approach that addresses the mind, body, and spirit, leading to remarkable outcomes for her patients.
