Meet Glen Batson, D.C.

UNDERSTANDING THE CAUSE OF YOUR PAIN,
THEN WORKING TO CORRECT IT

Chiropractic Methods With Purpose

Having trained directly under Dr. Pierce, founder of the Pierce Technique of Chiropractic Analysis and Treatment, allows Dr. Batson to find the CAUSE of the pain and/or dysfunction. His methods is understanding WHY the pain is occurring and not just treating the symptom; point of pain. Point of pain is not necessarily where the problem exists. Pain can be referred pain from another area.

Dr. Batson is a “Subluxation” based chiropractor. Meaning it is the spinal subluxation or joint dysfunction that may be causing the neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction and the associated signs/symptoms.

Muscles and body systems do not function on their own, it is the nerve input from the brain telling the tissues how to function. Proper nerve energy is essential to maintain homeostasis.

Healthcare providers tend to treat symptoms for example with physiotherapy, electric stims, supplements, and/or medications. Dr. Batson always goes back to the spine for the neuro-musculoskeletal component of the condition, along with postural and structural body analysis, to make sure his patients are getting proper nerve energy to the region thus allowing restoration of biomechanical function.

"My practice is distinct compared to most chiropractors in the area. As a Palmer graduate and understudy of Dr. Pierce my practice provides my patients a unique philosophical background and approach to healthcare. "




Dr. Batson's methods include gentle specific chiropractic adjustments with no spinal jerking, popping or twisting procedures.

The high-low chiropractic table rises fully upright and lowers smoothly, allowing for easier mobility on and off the table. More importantly, the high-low table allows for proper patient positioning to provide a more specific gentle adjustment.
