ABOUT US
We want to improve the overall health of the Northwest Florida community and build a culture of wellness through chiropractic care and optimal function. We have dedicated our careers to educating and inspiring people to change their lives while creating a cultural shift of optimal health in our community.
How We’re Different
Our approach to patient care at Integrity is multifaceted and scientific. Not only do we employ the mechanical and neurological techniques of chiropractic adjustments and manipulation, but we strive for optimal body function by incorporating nutritional counseling, supplementation, structural rehabilitation of the spine, functional rehabilitation of muscles and ligaments, physiotherapy, and soft tissue mobilization.
Our doctors are continually educating themselves through post-doctoral seminars and training, while seeking out new research in the areas of human health and performance from credible peer-reviewed chiropractic and medical journals.
