Our Chiropractic and Wellness Services
Every service we provide at Pathways Chiropractic is rooted in a commitment to evidence-based, whole-patient care. We don’t offer cookie-cutter treatment plans — every patient receives a personalized evaluation and a customized care plan designed around their specific condition, health history, and goals. Below is an overview of the services available at our Traverse City, MI office.
Chiropractic Care
Our core service, chiropractic care focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders — especially those involving the spine — through precise, hands-on adjustments. Chiropractic adjustments restore proper motion to restricted joints, relieve nerve interference, reduce pain and inflammation, and support the body’s natural healing processes. We treat a wide range of conditions using spinal manipulation, soft-tissue techniques, and corrective exercise to help patients achieve lasting relief and optimal function.
Auto Injury Treatment
If you’ve been in a car accident — even a minor one — the forces involved can cause significant damage to the spine, soft tissues, and surrounding structures. Many auto injury symptoms such as whiplash, neck pain, and back pain don’t appear immediately and can worsen significantly if left untreated. At Pathways Chiropractic, we provide early, conservative care to help accident victims recover fully and prevent long-term pain and disability.
Massage Therapy
Our team of licensed massage therapists provides one-hour therapeutic sessions tailored to your individual needs. We offer a full range of massage modalities including Swedish/relaxation massage, deep tissue massage, prenatal massage, trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and sports massage. Massage therapy pairs exceptionally well with chiropractic care, helping to reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and accelerate recovery. Many insurance plans cover massage therapy — contact us to verify your benefits.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Chiropractic care isn’t just for adults. Children of all ages — from newborns to teenagers — can benefit tremendously from gentle, age-appropriate chiropractic adjustments. Pediatric chiropractic supports healthy nervous system development, helps address conditions like colic, ear infections, and postural imbalances, and sets the foundation for a lifetime of good spinal health. Adjustments for children use significantly lighter pressure than those used for adults and are always tailored to the child’s size and developmental stage.
Pre/Postnatal Chiropractic
Pregnancy brings remarkable changes to a woman’s body — and those changes can create significant musculoskeletal discomfort. Our pre and postnatal chiropractic services are designed to support expecting and new mothers through every stage of pregnancy and recovery. Our chiropractor is certified in the Webster Technique and has extensive training in prenatal and postnatal care, offering safe, effective treatment to help mothers feel their best throughout their pregnancy journey.
Wellness Care
At Pathways Chiropractic, we believe that healthcare doesn’t stop when your pain does. Our wellness care program is designed for patients who want to maintain their results, prevent future problems, and support their long-term health proactively. Regular chiropractic maintenance visits help keep the spine aligned, the nervous system functioning optimally, and the body resilient against the physical demands of daily life.
Conditions We Treat at Pathways Chiropractic
Our services address a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions. At Pathways Chiropractic, we regularly treat patients experiencing back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches and migraines, shoulder pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, scoliosis, vertigo, whiplash, and work injuries. If you’re dealing with a condition not listed here, call our office at (231) 252-4249 — chances are, we can help.

Chiropractic Services FAQs
What chiropractic services does Pathways Chiropractic offer?
Pathways Chiropractic offers a comprehensive range of services including general chiropractic care, auto injury treatment, massage therapy, pediatric chiropractic, pre/postnatal chiropractic, and wellness care. Each service is delivered using evidence-based methods and tailored to the individual patient’s needs and health goals.
Do I need to choose between chiropractic care and massage therapy?
Not at all — in fact, combining chiropractic care and massage therapy often produces better results than either treatment alone. Chiropractic adjustments address joint alignment and nerve function, while massage therapy relieves muscle tension and improves soft tissue health. Together, they create a more comprehensive and effective approach to pain relief and recovery.
Does Pathways Chiropractic treat children?
Yes. We offer specialized pediatric chiropractic care for infants and children of all ages. Adjustments for young patients are gentle, light-pressure techniques specifically adapted to their developing bodies. Pediatric chiropractic is safe and beneficial for a wide range of childhood conditions including colic, ear infections, sports injuries, and postural development issues.
Can I receive chiropractic care after a car accident?
Absolutely. Seeking chiropractic care promptly after a car accident is one of the most important steps you can take for your recovery. Early, conservative treatment can prevent minor auto injuries from developing into chronic pain conditions. At Pathways Chiropractic, we work with auto insurance to help cover the cost of your care.
Is wellness chiropractic care necessary if I’m not in pain?
Many of our patients choose ongoing wellness care precisely because they feel great and want to keep it that way. Regular chiropractic maintenance helps maintain spinal alignment, prevent injury, support nervous system function, and optimize overall health — the same logic as regular dental cleanings.
How do I know which service is right for me?
The best way to determine which services are most appropriate is to schedule an initial consultation at Pathways Chiropractic. During your first visit, your chiropractor will conduct a thorough evaluation and recommend a personalized treatment plan. Call us at (231) 252-4249 or book online to get started.
Does Pathways Chiropractic accept insurance for all services?
We accept insurance for both chiropractic care and massage therapy, including Medicare, Medicaid, MESSA, Veterans Affairs, and many other major carriers. Coverage varies by plan and service type, so we recommend calling our office before your first visit to verify your specific benefits.
