Treatment Overview
What to Expect
Sports Medicine Acupuncture and Chiropractic treatments keep athletes performing at their best, improving recovery times, and balancing muscle groups.
Treatment focused on sports injuries, repetitive use injuries, and orthopedic disorders. We provide the most advanced care available in the assessment and treatment of these injuries.


We are Extensively Trained
Oliver Leonetti L.Ac. and Erik Isaacman L.Ac. have both completed the year-long certification program and passed all of the exams to earn their certificates in Sports Medicine Acupuncture. Casey McGuire L.Ac. and Terry Atchley L.Ac. are both now in the process of completing the certification.
Dr. Jerrod Puckett obtained a Masters of Science in Sports Medicine in addition to his Doctorate in Chiropractic, which required hundreds of additional hours treating athletes, on and off the field.
How We Treat You
Evaluation of injuries and orthopedic disorders to find the cause of pain and dysfunction.
Based on these findings, treatment plans are then devised, which include acupuncture, myofascial release (a type of clinical deep tissue massage), and corrective exercises.
Postural assessment to understand the global imbalances that can lead to, and/or prevent proper healing of, orthopedic disorders and sports injuries.
