Action Potential - What's Your Potential?
Our Clinic
Our clinic saw it’s first patient in August 2006. We had one practitioner and only two rooms in the upstairs of an old house. Since then we have changed locations twice and finally settled into our current location. Our chiropractors have gained a variety of skills, additional training and experience over the years enabling them to be a rehabilitation specialist, clinical acupuncture provider, certified exercise physiologist, kinesiologist and strength and conditioning specialist. Each chiropractor brings their unique skills and experiences and offers a variety of services and techniques. Together we have seen thousands of patients, young and young at heart. We continue to learn and grow, with the purpose of offering you great care for you and your family. We have grown to become a busy clinic, and over the years have sponsored or supported sports teams and community organizations. Each of us looks forward to continuing to be an active member in Oxford County, both personally and with our practice, to serve its citizens the best we can. Our chiropractic and rehabilitation clinic, offers a wide variety of services and products focused on your well being. We offer chiropractic and physical rehabilitation, clinical acupuncture, soft tissue and stretching techniques, orthotics and bracing and taping.
