What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care is a natural, non-invasive approach to health that focuses on the relationship between your spine and nervous system. When your spine is properly aligned, your body can function at its best — reducing pain, improving mobility, and supporting overall wellbeing.
At Route 15 Chiropractic Center, we take a "whole person" approach. We don't just treat your symptoms — we look for the underlying causes of your pain and discomfort. By addressing the root cause, we help you achieve lasting relief without depending on medication or surgery.
Chiropractic adjustments are safe, gentle, and effective for patients of all ages — from newborns to seniors. For sensitive patients, we offer low-force, "non-crack" techniques that provide the same benefits with a gentler touch.

Once we've identified the root cause of your pain, we'll explain exactly what's happening in your body and how we can help. You'll understand your condition inside and out.

Your adjustment is safe, gentle, and typically painless. Many patients feel relief immediately. Some may feel mild soreness that fades within a day or two.

What our chiropractic patients say
"I had chronic headaches nearly every day for about 2 years. I tried acupuncture, botox, allergy testing, a nutritionist, and a variety of drugs — all with minimal relief. Dr. Rajeckas quickly diagnosed me with cervicogenic headaches. After about 3-4 weeks of adjustments my pain subsided. Absolute miracle."
"I was in so much pain, suffering from sciatica that I could hardly walk. I called Dr. Andy and without hesitation, he saw me right away. It took about four adjustments the first week and I could finally walk without the pain."
"Within 3 visits to Dr. Rajeckas, I was walking faster and had less pain. Within nine visits, I was walking normally and without any pain. The only regret I have about chiropractic care is that I didn't start sooner."
