This integrative approach, intertwined with interdisciplinary relationships allows for patients to always have a wide variety of treatment options at their disposal, while keeping communication organized between all offices and clinics involved.

Spinal misalignments, compensation and spasm of major muscle groups, organ dysfunction, and opportunistic stealth pathological microbes are all a recipe for degrading and chronic health in our population. Spinal manipulation to correct vertebral fixations/subluxations, along with ART, corrective exercise, neuromuscular reeducation, applied functional medicine, and many more modalities, are all valid integrative measures to guide patients to optimal health and equilibrium. Providing a unique protocol for the individual is paramount to the success of treatment protocols. Decades of physical trauma and misuse requires a multi-layered approach to illness and dysfunction, with commitment from both the patient and the practitioner. Dr. Peterson has dedicated his time in practice to achieve wellness and recovery for his patients, and looks forward to continuing to be an integral part of that journey.
