Chiropractic Care
Dr. Andersen offers a unique approach that helps her patients overcome pain and other symptoms that affect quality of life. Chiropractic care is primarily about the nervous system. By removing interferences with the nervous system, Dr. Andersen is able to help your body heal naturally and improve function. The nervous system is where electrical impulses exist within your body.
When these impulses are disrupted, almost every function within the body starts to break down. Unblocking those disruptions has far-reaching effects within your body. Problems that have bothered you for years can be alleviated relatively quickly. Instead of relying on medications to cover up symptoms or surgery to restructure the body, your body can start to heal on its own within a small number of appointments.
Our Techniques
The primary technique that Dr. Andersen uses is the Activator. This is a handheld tool that is used to manually manipulate the vertebrae of the neck and spine. Dr. Andersen adjusts the speed and force of the activator to achieve the desired results while keeping her patients comfortable during the treatment.

How Long Do Chiropractic Adjustments Last?
Dr. Andersen explains some self-care tips that you should do at home in order to maximize the benefits of your treatments. She may also recommend orthotics. Being engaged in your health and well-being is the best way to help your body heal naturally after your chiropractic adjustments.
Each treatment plan is unique to the needs of the patients. Dr. Andersen outlines your plan of care during the appointment. In most cases, the treatment plan is significantly shorter than what is required by physicians who rely on medications and surgery, as well as chiropractors in the Mississauga area that use different approaches to your care.
Generally speaking, chiropractic care is safe for patients of all ages and conditions, especially when those treatments are provided with a gentle and caring touch. Dr. Andersen’s experience with treating patients of all ages means that she can adapt treatments to the comfort level of the individual.
