Services & Techniques

At Polochick Chiropractic and Wellness Center, 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 New Bedford 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. George and Brian have years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.  They specialize in Gonstead, Thompson Drop Table, Torque Release Technique with integrator, and Bio Energetic Synchronization Technique (B.E.S.T.).  B.E.S.T. work is a very gentle technique that helps correct problems created by the stress of modern living.  It is a phenominal technique which more people are discovering and enjoying as it not only corrects subluxations but also helps deal with what causes them.  We have techniques to accomodate every person from babies to seniors.  We have extremely light techniques with no force, energy balancing techniques and traditional adjusting techniques. 

Corrective Exercises

We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises designed just for them to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. Dr. George and Dr. Brian specialize in Exerise ball therapy and Dr. Brian even teaches aerobics at a nearby gym.  Exercise also reduces stress which has a major impact on the nervous system and can inhibit healing.  Exercise is absolutely neccessary for a healthy body and nervous system and we can show you how to do it safely and effectively.  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.

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.  We have a program available called the creating wellness program which is unlike any wellness system you have ever gone through.  It measures how well you are by a lifestyle questionaire and a 20 min wellness exam which includes a strength test, lung capacity, digital stress test, digital % body fat test, and a scan of your nervous system and gives you a score to find out how well your body is dealing with lifestyle stress.  Based on this score we have coaching available and wellness programs available to help you achieve optimal health and wellness.  Go to www.creatingwellness.com to find out more about the program.

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. George and Brian can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.  From weight loss, digestive problems or just improved health we can do nutritional testing to what type of supplements you may need.  We also provide a 21 day bio detox to help reduce inflammation and clear the body of toxins that may be preventing you from achieving optimal health.

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.
