About Us
We don’t offer cookie-cutter care—our approach is individually customized to meet your unique needs.
"See you three times a week for the next six months" or "Sign up for chiropractic care for a year"—sound familiar from your last chiropractic visit? We understand that while everyone can benefit from chiropractic care, each individual's situation is different.
You, the patient, are the center of our professional relationship. While I'll provide my professional recommendation for your care, the final decision must come from you. After all, it's your health we're dealing with, and I take that very seriously.
Different approaches - is your chiropractor straight or a mixer?
At Tanaka Family Chiropractic Center, we offer the purest form of chiropractic care. A straight chiropractor is solely dedicated to correcting vertebral subluxation complex using hands-on techniques. This approach focuses on addressing the root cause of symptoms, staying true to the original chiropractic philosophy established in 1895. It's the essence of old-school, traditional chiropractic care.
In contrast, mixers are symptom correctors. They use various instruments and devices to alleviate symptoms, adopting an outside-in approach rather than promoting healing from within.
So, which type of chiropractor do you prefer: straight or mixer?
You can find more information on our chiropractic care on the FAQ page.
