Help for Subluxation in Port St Lucie
Subluxation? What’s that?
If you’re new to the world of chiropractic (or not!), you’ve probably heard the word “subluxation” mentioned in our conversation about the nervous system. But what is it? Subluxation is the inability of the body to perceive itself or its environment due to a misalignment in the spine that disrupts the body’s natural energy flow. This disruption, while seemingly minor, causes imbalances in the nervous system, which have the potential to affect your overall health.
What Are Some Common Causes?
Subluxations can begin as early as birth and compound throughout life. Physical stressors like birth trauma, learning to walk, sports injuries, or even minor car accidents can create misalignments.
Daily habits such as slouching, spending extended time on our devices, or repetitive movements can contribute to the problem, but it’s not just physical; emotional stress and environmental factors play a significant role. When your body is already taxed, these stress factors can accumulate, leading to a chain reaction of symptoms that may seem unrelated but often stem from the same root cause.
What Is Your Body Trying to Say?
We care about the symptoms your body is using to get your attention and helping you find relief, but symptoms are not only elements to consider when talking about health.
Why?
What to Expect
Your first visit includes an in-depth consultation to explore your health history and to get indications of where, when, and why the subluxation is showing up. We also use advanced diagnostic tools like thermography, heart rate variability (HRV) scans, and neuromuscular assessments to identify areas of subluxation and dysfunction. Our approach isn’t limited to managing symptoms; we focus on creating a comprehensive care plan tailored to your unique needs. We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach here.
During each adjustment, our chiropractors use a gentle, precise technique aimed at restoring balance and improving nervous system function. Whether it’s a manual adjustment or a more delicate tonal technique, every step is designed to make sure you’re comfortable and maximize your body’s healing potential.

Memorable Success Stories
Every day, we’re honored to help clients achieve maximum health through natural, non-invasive chiropractic care and we’ve been part of countless inspiring recoveries. Dr. Robert shares some particularly memorable clients he witnessed when he first graduated from chiropractic college:
An elderly man with severe dementia visited the office, completely hunched over and only able to speak three sentences. During the course of his care plan, Dr. Robert addressed the subluxations in the man’s sacrum and upper cervical regions. Not only did the man start standing up straighter, he regained the ability to access memories, and was able to tell stories from his time as a salesman in the 1950s!
A young child started care wearing a corrective helmet to address concerns about the shape of his head. By addressing subluxation through gentle chiropractic adjustments and cranial work, we supported his natural function and within just a few weeks, the child no longer needed the helmet; his head began to take on a normal shape! “The child’s pediatrician had never seen anything like it,” says Dr. Robert.
