Conditions We Treat
Back Pain
Back pain can start after lifting something heavy, sitting too long, or from changes in the spine that develop over time. It may stay in one area or spread into the hips or legs. At Active Family Wellness, every visit begins with a detailed examination to understand what is causing the problem. Dr. Gregory Lee creates a care plan based on your condition, which may include chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, stretching, and rehabilitation exercises. The goal is to improve movement, reduce strain on the spine, and help you return to normal daily activities.
Whiplash / Auto Accident Injuries
Whiplash is common after a car accident, even when symptoms do not appear right away. Neck stiffness, headaches, shoulder discomfort, and limited movement can develop over the next few days. A careful evaluation helps identify the joints and muscles affected. Chiropractic care may include gentle spinal adjustments and exercises to improve movement as you recover. Your treatment plan is based on your condition and is adjusted over time as your recovery progresses.
Neck Pain
Neck pain can make driving, working at a desk, or even sleeping uncomfortable. Poor posture, muscle tension, injuries, or spinal joint problems are some of the common reasons it develops. Treatment focuses on improving how the neck moves while easing stress on nearby muscles and joints. Depending on your condition, care may include chiropractic adjustments, mobility exercises, and other supportive therapies. Active Family Wellness chiropractors take time to identify the source of the problem instead of treating every patient the same way.
Sciatica
Sciatica causes pain that can travel from the lower back into the hip, buttock, or leg. Tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness may also be present. Dr. Gregory Lee checks your spine, posture, and nerve function during the examination. Chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, and exercises are selected based on the findings. The focus is on improving spinal movement and easing pressure along the irritated nerve while helping you move with greater comfort.
Scoliosis
Scoliosis affects the spinal curvature and could result in misaligned shoulders, back pain, muscle strain, or loss of flexibility. Your age, symptoms, and spinal changes will all be taken into consideration while providing treatment. While chiropractic care does not straighten every spinal curve, it can help improve spinal movement and support better function. Scoliosis treatment may include spinal adjustments, posture guidance, stretching, and exercises selected depending on your curve type.
Carpal Tunnel
Carpal tunnel syndrome often causes numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain in the hand and fingers. Repetitive hand movements and wrist strain can make symptoms worse over time. Dr. Gregory Lee examines the wrist along with the neck and upper back because nerve irritation may involve more than one area. Treatment may include gentle chiropractic care, soft tissue techniques, stretching, and exercises that support better hand and wrist function. The approach is based on your symptoms and daily activities.
Headaches and Migraines
Headaches and migraines are sometimes linked to problems in the neck, restricted joint movement, or poor posture. Dr. Gregory Lee checks how the neck and upper back are moving and looks for areas that may be contributing to your symptoms. Spinal adjustments, muscle therapy, and simple exercises may be recommended depending on the findings. The type of care depends on what is found during your examination, not just the location of the pain.
Knee Pain
Knee pain may follow an injury or develop over time from repeated stress on the joint. Walking, climbing stairs, or standing for long periods can become difficult. The knee is examined along with the hips, pelvis, and ankles because each plays a role in how the joint moves. Chiropractic care, rehabilitation exercises, and movement training are used when they fit your condition. Dr. Lee also looks for movement patterns that may be placing extra strain on the knee.
Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a gradual breakdown of the cartilage inside a joint. It often causes stiffness, swelling, and pain in the hands, knees, hips, neck, or lower back. At Active Family Wellness, the affected joint is examined for tenderness, movement, and swelling before care begins. Chiropractic care may be recommended as part of your treatment, along with exercises to keep the surrounding muscles active and support joint movement.
Workers’ Compensation Injuries
Work injuries are not always caused by a single accident. Repetitive lifting, long hours on your feet, and daily strain can all lead to pain in the back, neck, shoulders, or joints. Active Family Wellness provides chiropractic care for many workplace injuries and works with each person’s recovery goals. Treatment may involve spinal adjustments, rehabilitation exercises, and other therapies based on the injury. Dr. Gregory Lee also tracks your progress through each stage of care, making changes when your condition improves or new concerns arise.
Sports Injuries
Sports injuries can happen during training, competition, or regular exercise. Muscle strains, joint sprains, and overuse injuries often limit movement and make it harder to stay active. Dr. Gregory Lee looks at how your body moves instead of focusing only on the painful area. Chiropractic adjustments, stretching, and rehabilitation exercises are used to address the injury and improve movement. Whether you play sports regularly or stay active for fitness, chiropractic treatment is planned around your condition and the demands of your routine.
Corporate Health and Wellness Program
Active Family Wellness provides customized wellness presentations for businesses and community groups. Topics include ergonomic workstation setup, stress management, exercise, prenatal and postpartum care, pediatric health, and men’s and women’s health. Presentations can be held in person or virtually and are followed by a Q&A session. The goal is to encourage employees to recognize body signals and take a more proactive approach to their health through education.
Vertigo
Vertigo creates the feeling that you or the room is moving, even when everything is still. It may be linked to problems involving the inner ear, neck, or balance system. The examination includes a review of your symptoms along with an assessment of neck movement and posture. When chiropractic care is appropriate, treatment is directed at areas that may be contributing to dizziness. Dr. Gregory Lee explains the findings and recommends care based on the source of your symptoms.
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can make reaching, lifting, or sleeping uncomfortable. The cause is not always limited to the shoulder itself, as the neck and upper back can also affect how the joint moves. Active Family Wellness examines the surrounding joints and muscles before beginning care. Chiropractic adjustments, mobility exercises, and muscle therapy may be used to improve shoulder movement and reduce unnecessary strain. Treatment is adjusted according to how the shoulder responds over the course of care.
Arm and Leg Pain Treatment
Pain in the arms or legs may begin with a muscle injury, joint problem, or irritation of a nerve. The location of the pain does not always point to where it started. Dr. Gregory Lee examines the spine along with the affected arm or leg to look for movement restrictions and changes in nerve function. Chiropractic care is combined with exercises when needed to improve movement and support recovery. Each visit builds on the findings from the previous one, rather than following the same routine for everyone.
