| Techniques and Services |
| At Tilton Chiropractic, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in both our Cascade and Middleville Offices |
 |
| Chiropractic Care |
 We provide advanced spinal care and stabilization utilizing time-tested and technologically improved chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. Some of the methods Dr. Tilton uses are gentle enough for 2 day old infants and some techniques involve more power for athletes when necessary. Having an array of different chiropractic applications helps Dr. Tilton treat the wide array of body types, ages and issues. |
|
| Corrective Excercises |
 When you reach a particular point in your care, Dr. Tilton teaches his patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%.
It makes sense to incorporate specific exercises to your care once particular goals have been achieved in your care. When your spinal alignment goals have been achieved, it makes sense to add exercises to strengthen new joint positions and keep “brain training” (as Dr. Tilton likes to call it), in order to achieve maximum results. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health. |
|
| Lifestyle Advice |
 Dr. Tilton also finds it helpful to "coach" his patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to prevent aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. Dr. Tilton recognizes that each patient is a whole person, and helping them reach true health and wellness is a collaborative effort between Dr. Tilton, his staff and the patient. Dr. Tilton recognizes the best doctor is YOU! |
|
| Nutritional Counseling & Blood Chemistry |
 We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient´s return to optimal health. Knowing which supplements and vitamins are good for your particular case have proven to be an essential part of recovery and maintaining optimum levels of health.
Dr. Tilton has focused on understanding this awesome balance between food and health and can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual surveys, blood panels and through kinesiology. |
|
| Spinal & Postural Screenings |
 Posture and spinal screenings can reveal important health information and unlock the door to improved health and well-being. We provide screenings at area malls, community events, health fairs and places of employment. Additionally, Dr. Tilton will provide a massage therapist, free of charge, to provide charity chair massages for your clients or event staff. Contact us today to arrange a screening at your event or workplace. |

| Massage Therapy |
 Massage therapy offers a conservative and natural treatment approach that relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our office provides specific massage and muscular therapy that is tailored to meet the patient's condition and injury. The benefits of massage therapy may include increasing blood circulation, reducing swelling, relaxing muscles, relieving muscle pain and spasms, and aiding in recovery and range of motion.
The greatest benefit of this wonderful therapy may come in the form of relaxing the muscles of the spinal column prior to chiropractic adjustments by Dr. Tilton. In this way, you are allowing your body to perhaps relax more for your adjustments, thereby making your chiropractic care more valuable. Sometimes, however, the greatest benefit may simply be mental relaxation…letting go of some of the trials and tribulations of life so that one’s body and mind can be at peace.
Dr. Tilton believes a one hour massage is as healthy if not more so, than any form of exercise and believes a massage should be prescribed as a medical necessity. All doctors agree that “Stress” is linked to 75% of all diseases. The question is, why aren’t we doing everything possible to reduce and/or handle stress? Why not invest in a one hour massage, 1 time per week for 4 consecutive weeks and ask yourself at this time, how valuable you think massage is to your body, your mind and your spirit? |
