Chiropractic Care
Healing doesn’t come from outside your body — it starts from within. Your nervous system is the master system that allows communication to flow between the brain and body, controlling every organ, cell and tissue. When there’s interference present, your nervous system can’t function properly. Your body won’t be able to, either!
Dr. Aaron focuses on using chiropractic care to help your nervous system work at its optimal capacity, facilitating the body’s natural healing abilities. When your nervous system is operating well, you can see many benefits of chiropractic care: diminished aches and pains, higher immune function and better overall well-being.
Dr. Aaron learned about the Gonstead method during his years in chiropractic college. His wife, plagued with multiple weekly migraines for years, went to a Gonstead chiropractor and saw incredible changes in her health. Dr. Aaron’s aches and pains that had troubled him for years were also relieved with this technique. These turnarounds solidified his desire to extend the technique to others.
We also use the Webster Technique on expecting moms to align their pelvis and body.
Dr. Aaron will discuss his technique with you before starting to make sure that you know what to expect. Different adjusting styles are available based on your preference and comfort level.
Reaching Peak Performance
When you have proper spinal biomechanics, one of the benefits is injury prevention.
Dr. Aaron can make sure your spine and nervous system integrity are at the highest possible levels, allowing you to excel. Numerous professional athletes such as Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods agree that chiropractic care gives them an edge!

Chiropractic Adjustments
A chiropractic adjustment can make you feel so much better. Your body does not want to be out of alignment, and that’s exactly what an adjustment can help address. It is also known as chiropractic manipulation, manual manipulation, or spinal manipulation. The adjustment refers to the manipulation of the vertebrae that have abnormal movements and are not functioning properly. A chiropractic adjustment will assist in fixing these issues.
The goal of chiropractic treatment is to reduce the subluxation, increase the range of motion, reduce nerve irritability, and improve mobility. Our compassionate and qualified chiropractor will work with you to relieve this pain and get you back to being pain free every single day.
Although many people visit their chiropractor and have an adjustment when something feels out of alignment, a regular visit will help you avoid any pain in the future and will keep your body feeling great all day long.
If you are having one of those days when you are not in the best mood, an adjustment may actually help. Your body will feel much better, which will naturally improve your mood.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is the manual manipulation of soft body tissues (muscle, connective tissue, tendons and ligaments) to enhance a person’s health and well-being. There are many types of massage therapy methods (also called modalities). People seek massage therapy for a variety of reasons; for example, to reduce stress and anxiety, to relax muscles, to rehabilitate injuries, to reduce pain and to promote overall health and wellness.

Anxiety relief
Anxiety disorders impact over 40 million people every year within the U.S. Though everyone may experience anxiety from time to time, anxiety disorders cause persistent stress or unease about even daily situations such as socializing with others, driving, or work. Left untreated, anxiety can significantly impact ones’ quality of life and ability to participate in activities that they used to enjoy.
What is anxiety?
Anxiety is an emotion characterized by strong feelings of tension, worry, physical changes such as an increase in blood pressure and heart rate. People with anxiety disorders have constant intrusive thoughts or concerns.
Anxiety disorders come in a variety of forms from general anxiety to more specific conditions such as social anxiety or panic disorders. Anxiety develops from several compounding factors, including genetics, brain chemistry, personality, and life events. Many patients who are diagnosed with anxiety may also have co-occurring illnesses such as substance abuse, depression, or other mental health conditions.
Symptoms
Common symptoms of anxiety include:
- Nervousness, restlessness, and feeling like you cannot relax
- Feelings of danger, panic, and dread
- Rapid heart rate and breathing or hyperventilation
- Increased or heavy sweating
- Muscle twitching or trembling
- Weakness or lethargy
- Difficulty focusing
- Insomnia
- Digestive problems
- Avoidant behavior
- Obsessions about certain ideas

At Cooksley Family Chiropractic, we tailor each treatment plan to the individual needs of the patient. We will carefully go over any symptoms you are experiencing, your medical history, and any other relevant factors such as life events and behaviors.

Migraine Recovery
Here at Cooksley Family Chiropractic, we specialize in assisting our patients through their migraine pain.
Unfortunately, many people suffer from migraines. Migraines are throbbing headaches that are often presaged by fuzzy eyesight, sensitivity to light and sound, and even vomiting. Although migraines are linked to stress, many people have found going to the chiropractor has helped relieve their migraine problems immensely.
Patients with migraine problems also typically have neck pain issues, a family history of migraines, and nasal congestion. Since migraines are not fun for anyone, it is no wonder so many people look for relief.
Chiropractic treatment has helped so many people get rid of their migraines, even for good! Prior to treatment, our educated and compassionate chiropractor will also take you through a physical exam to ensure that there are no other reasons behind your pain. After this, we start by trying sensitive trigger points in your lower neck and upper back muscles. By stimulating these areas, the migraine symptoms will actually start to go away.
The success of this and the severity of your pain will determine what further treatment will be required. We will also go over your sleep patterns and overall health. Sometimes this plays a role in your migraine problems.
Our entire staff is always smiling and wanting to go the extra mile. We understand how migraines are not only painful but can also cause you to miss work and not enjoy your days. We work at not just addressing the migraine but actually fixing your body so that you never deal with this problem again.
We are always here to answer your questions. No question is ever too silly for us. We want you to be healthy and will do whatever we can to assist you with this. The moment you enter our office, you will be greeted by our friendly receptionist. The entire time you are in our office, you will be in caring hands.
If you have any questions or suffer from migraines, contact us today at (402) 483-4646.
