At Okemos Family Chiropractic, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our Okemos office.

Chiropractic Care

We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Kirby Perrault has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.

Spinal & Postural Screenings

Posture and spinal screenings can reveal important health information and unlock the door to improved health and well-being. We provide screenings at area malls, community events, health fairs and places of employment. Contact us today to arrange a screening at your event or workplace.

Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field Therapy

Pulsed Magnetic Cellular Exercise is dynamic technology.  Stress and injury contribute to creating an energetic imbalance at the cellular level.  When this occurs, the cell is no longer functioning at its full potential.  The electrical currents of living tissue are the essence of cellular energy that powers every organ and system of the body.  Benefits of cellular exercise may include improved circulation and cardiovascular function, improved immune system function, pain relief, eased joint pain and stiffness, and reduced stress and fatigue.  It also helps remove bodily toxins and assists in detoxification.

Ionic Cellular Cleanse Footbath

The Ionic Cellular Cleanse Footbath is designed to restore the body's energy while facilitating and aiding the natural detoxification process.  Some of the benefits of the detoxifying footbath are ionic cleaning and recharging, energizing the red blood cells, assisting the body in recovery time from injury, surgery and disease, assisting the body with headache and pain relief, joint stiffness, improved sleep patterns, arthritis pain, removing heavy metals, boosting the immune system.  It may also assist the body with kidney and liver functions. 

• Nutritional Counseling

  We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient´s return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you? Do you know how these supplements and vitamins interact with one another? Dr. Kirby Perrault can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.

Phototherapy

Phototherapy uses a specific type of light to penetrate the skin's surface and underlying tissues to stimulate the body's natural repair process. The result is faster healing and reduced pain, swelling and inflammation. By providing the extra energy required for healing, the tissue is able to heal itself naturally. It penetrates deeply to stimulate tissue and enhance the healing and normalization process.

Medical Percussor

Percussor therapy can significantly reduce chronic pain.  Excessive tightening of muscles or areas with scar tissue can cause overall stiffening of the muscles, resulting in pain.  Both of these conditions can be alleviated through percussor therapy.  Percussors rely on trigger point therapy to release the tightened muscles, breaking up scar tissue and adhesions which cause restricted motion or pain.   Medical percussors can alleviate muscle pain and release chest congestion due to mucus build up.

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy offers a natural conservative treatment approach that relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our office provides specific massage and muscular therapy that is tailored to meet the patient's condition and injury. The benefits of massage therapy may include increasing blood circulation, reducing swelling, relaxing muscles, relieving muscle pain and spasms, and aid in recovery and range of motion

Corrective Exercises

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.

Lifestyle Advice

We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each our patient is a whole person, and help them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.
