What Chiropractic Care Service Means in Peoria
Chiropractic care is a healthcare discipline focused on the relationship between your spine and nervous system. At The Holistic Health Center of Peoria, Dr. Nicole Lackner uses the Gonstead technique — one of the most precise and thorough systems in chiropractic — to identify and correct spinal subluxations that may interfere with nerve function.
The Gonstead Difference
Not all chiropractic is the same. The Gonstead technique stands apart for its thorough analysis:
- Visualization: Posture and movement analysis to spot asymmetry
- Instrumentation: A myoVision surface EMG scan to map muscle tension
- Static palpation: Feeling for tightness and tenderness along the spine
- Motion palpation: Testing each joint for restricted movement
- X-ray when appropriate: To see the exact structure and alignment
This analysis identifies the exact vertebra that needs adjustment — no guessing, no random cracking.
Who Dr. Lackner Cares For
- Adults with back pain, neck pain, or headaches
- Seniors with degenerative joint changes
- Infants and children, including colic and ear infection support
- Pregnant moms using the Webster Technique
- Auto accident and workers' comp patients
- Athletes recovering from sports injuries
