The Holistic Health Center of Peoria is a family chiropractic office at 4809 N. Sheridan Rd. in Peoria, IL. Dr. Nicole Lackner, D.C., has practiced since 2001 and specializes in the Gonstead technique. Your first visit includes a myoVision scan, a painless surface EMG test that shows where your spine is under stress, along with X-rays when needed. She offers pediatric, prenatal (Webster Technique) and C.A.T.S. cranial care, and sees auto accident and workers' comp patients. She also leads sound baths and offers essential oils. We welcome patients from Peoria Heights, Dunlap, East Peoria and West Peoria. Call (309) 685-5777 to book. No referral needed.
How do you know when it's time to see a chiropractor?
Your nervous system and your spine work closely together. When the spine is out of alignment, it can put pressure on nearby nerves, and some people notice neck pain, back pain, sciatica or headaches. Dr. Lackner uses the Gonstead technique to look for where your spine needs attention, then adjusts only those areas, gently and precisely.
Finding the Source
Dealing with sciatica, back pain or tension headaches? A Gonstead assessment looks at your spine to find areas that may be contributing to your symptoms.
How Gonstead Care Works
The Gonstead technique uses visualization, instrumentation, and palpation so adjustments happen only where they're needed — never a generic "crack and hope."
A 20-Year Peoria Practice

What is a myoVision scan?
myoVision is a painless surface EMG scan. Sensors measure the electrical activity of the muscles along your spine, which helps show where your body is under stress. Dr. Lackner uses the results to guide your care plan and to compare your progress over time. Your first visit includes a myoVision scan along with X-rays when Dr. Lackner feels they're needed. There are no needles, and the scan itself involves no radiation and no discomfort.
