Chiropractor using Torque Release Technique to treat a patient

How Your Nervous System Holds the Key to Healing

Your body is designed to heal itself when your nervous system functions at its best. Dr. Craig uses advanced Torque Release Technique, along with other techniques, and INSIGHT scans to locate and remove interference in your nervous system, supporting your body's natural ability to heal. The Integrator® is a specialized instrument that delivers gentle, precise adjustments to restore optimal nervous system function.

This method uses light, targeted input instead of forceful twisting or popping. If you've seen unsettling videos of aggressive "cracking" adjustments, rest assured that's not what happens here. Dr. Craig blends instrument-assisted adjusting, gentle hands-on techniques, and supportive therapies like kinesiology taping, adapting his approach at each visit based on what your body needs that day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you really not crack bones or make loud popping sounds?

We use several different techniques based on what each patient needs during their care. One technique we use is the Torque Release Technique® that uses an instrument with gentle force. Many patients, especially children, find it very relaxing. We do use hands-on adjusting techniques if needed, but we are as gentle as possible. Some of our hands-on techniques do cause an audible click or popping sound.

How quickly might I start feeling better?

Many patients notice some improvements after their first visit, though everyone responds differently to care. Our experience with similar cases shows that significant changes may occur within two to four weeks of consistent care for chronic conditions.

Can you help my whole family?

We provide care for patients from birth through their golden years. Dr. Craig has had success helping families of all ages find relief from various conditions.

What makes your practice different?

Dr. Craig is the only chiropractor in our area who is certified in Torque Release Technique. Through this gentle technique, combined with thorough assessments and genuine care for each person's story, we strive to offer hope and help.

Do you accept insurance?

We work with most insurance providers. We do not work with Medicaid. Our team helps navigate your benefits to make care as affordable as possible.

The staff are welcoming and so kind. Facility is comfortable & clean. Level of service is excellent. The evaluation before adjustments was thorough, identified the issue causing me so much pain and then a clear treatment plan was offered. Since my first (very gentle and effective) adjustment I have had results they have changed my quality of life drastically. I am so grateful I found Dr. Henley - he & his staff are the best in the business.

Everyone was very welcoming when I arrived at the office. Dr. Hensley and Allie both listened to all of my concerns to be sure they understood. Although there was no guarantee they could help, after testing was complete, on my second appointment they had a plan of action. After one appointment of adjustment, I already started feeling relief from the pain I had been in for 5 months.
