About the ClinicWhat exactly is Midwest Muscle & Joint Clinic? We are a chiropractic healthcare clinic that specializes in not only getting people out of pain, but finding the root cause of that pain.
About the ClinicAt Midwest Muscle & Joint Clinic we take pride in our examination and assessments with every patient. Typically, a first visit can be anywhere from 30-45 mins. This may seem like a long time, but for us to properly diagnosis and have a plan of action for treatment, we make this visit very thorough yet as efficient as possible.
About the ClinicAll of our treatment and therapy consists of not only chiropractic care but also corrective exercises. Research suggests that when we combine manipulation with rehabilitation, we not only see shorter treatment plans but also lower healthcare costs.Â

Services & TreatmentWhen someone thinks of a Chiropractor, typically the first thing that comes to mind is the adjustment. At Midwest Muscle & Joint Clinic we use adjustments (manipulation) in conjunction with many other functional treatments. Most patients do not fully understand the mechanics involved in an adjustment, all they know is that they often feel better afterwards.. but why?Â

They are not only used to determine if an athlete is healthy enough to play sports, but is also used to evaluate and prevent the risk of future injuries. With every Sports Physical we go above-and-beyond what is necessary to assess and document by including a complimentary Functional Movement Screen. Â

LifestyleWe’ve all heard it. When you’re sick, rest. When you’re hurting, rest. There is no doubt that the body needs rest. Sleep is critical for the proper functioning of the body, including immune function, tissue healing, pain modulation, cardiovascular health, cognitive function, and learning and memory.
