Services & Techniques

At Harrisburg Area Chiropractic, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic care to each and every patient. We have included information below about the different chiropractic services offered in our Harrisburg chiropractic office, but please call us at (717) 558-8110 if you have any questions!

Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic Care

From pain relief to corrective and wellness care, we provide the highest quality and most up to date chiropractic care available. With a variety of techniques, we tailor your care to your specific needs and body type. Dr. Jackson is skilled in traditional hands on chiropractic adjusting techniques as well as extremely gentle, low force instrument adjustments for children and more sensitive patients. We may also use therapies such as mechanical traction and electrical muscle stimulation in the early phases of care to help reduce muscle tension and pain.


Corrective Exercises

Corrective Exercises

At Harrisburg Area Chiropractic, we teach our patients how to perform special "blueprint" exercises which can help strengthen and correct the irregularities in their body which may be causing pain. Many of these corrective exercises can actually be performed in the comfort of your own home to help improve the effectiveness of your chiropractic care and spinal correction plan. In addition to skeletal misalignment, you may be experiencing pain that is caused by muscles and connective tissues which are out of their proper place. Other types of pain such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches are caused by muscles and tissues that are being used improperly, causing injuries over time. In each case, targeted corrective exercises and stretches from our experienced chiropractor will help you feel good while also helping your body achieve balance and health. We use a combination of in office and at home exercises and stretching.


Lifestyle Advice

Lifestyle Advice

Many of our patients come to see our chiropractor to address a specific pain symptom such as back pain, neck pain or headaches. While our chiropractor will address each patient's specific condition with chiropractic care, we often find it helpful to "coach" our patients towards achieving a healthier lifestyle. For example, there may be certain activities that you should avoid or do differently to prevent yourself from unintentionally aggravating your particular health challenges. The goal of including lifestyle advice with a chiropractic care plan is to help each and every patient achieve the fulfilling and happy lifestyle they deserve, one that is full of the activities that are enjoyed most. We recognize that every single one of our patients is a whole person, and we use our expertise to help them reach total health and wellness.


Nutritional Counseling

Nutritional Advice 

What does nutrition have to do with chiropractic care? The goal of chiropractic care is to help patients achieve total health and balance with their body, and as part of that goal we provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you? Do you know how these supplements and vitamins interact with one another? We carry Standard Process nutritional supplements in our office, which are widely regarded by many natural health care providers as the highest quality organic whole food vitamins and supplements available.
