Thank you for you service - It is our honor and privilege to serve you!

Through a decade of treating Veterans as a Triwest in-network Chiropractor, Dr. Rivera has a great understanding of the unique health challenges faced by veterans after years of service. Dr. Rivera offers specialized chiropractic treatments that focus on improving the overall physical and mental well-being of our veteran patients. 

The Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Veterans

Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, hands-on health care discipline that focuses on the musculoskeletal system. Veterans, who often face chronic back pain, joint pain, and headaches due to the physical demands of military service, can find significant relief through chiropractic adjustments. Chiropractic Adjustments can help alleviate pain, enhance mobility, and improve quality of life for our Veteran patients. 

Veteran patients under our care, have reported a great variety of  improvements and health benefits. One veteran, who suffered from chronic lower back pain due to years of military service, experienced significant relief after just a few sessions; his ability to walk longer distances without pain greatly enhanced his overall well-being. Another veteran found substantial relief from recurring headaches through cervical adjustments and therapeutic massage, techniques frequently used in our clinic to alleviate tension and improve circulation. Other veterans have shared feedback about overall improvements in their health, which they feel have positively impacted their general well-being.
