At Spinal Care of Wilmington, 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 Wilmington office.

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression

 Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression works by creating a negative pressure inside the spinal discs, which draws in any bulging or herniated material, like suction.  This then stimulates the body to undergo a process know as "fibroblastic activity", producing fresh new tissues and ceslls.  These new cells attach themselves to the torn fibers of the disc that cause its contents to bulge.  When complete, it is stronger thatn before.  The negative pressure will also draw in vital fluid and nutrients to rehydrate a degenrated disc.

MASSAGE THERAPY   Several types of massage therapy are available and can greatly assist in the relief of pain from a variety of conditions. From reducing swelling, to breaking up scar tissue, to relieving painful spasms, to relief of tired, sore and aching muscles, to overall relaxation, you'll find the massage therapy available to be a valuable and comforting option to speed your recovery and make your care a pleasant experience.

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? Dr. Aaron Richardet can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.

These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. 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.
