General Info

Dr. John H. Kerner is a trained health professional who uses a variety of non-surgical treatments, such as spinal manipulation and mobilization, to treat patients with: *Lower back pain *Neck pain *Repetitive strains *Headaches *Sports injuries *Car accident injuries When accidents, falls, tension, over-exertion or other injuring mechanisms occur, the inability of the spine to compensate can result in minor displacements of one or more vertebrae, causing irritation to spinal nerve roots directly by pressure or indirectly through reflexes, and requiring consultation with a chiropractor. The physical demands of our jobs can create repetitive strain injuries. Chiropractic adjustments help by counteracting the unhealthy daily stresses placed on the spine. The chiropractic approach to health care is holistic stressing overall health and wellness. It recognizes that many factors affect health, including exercise, diet, rest, environment, and heredity. Chiropractors provide natural, drugless, non-surgical health treatments and rely on the body’s inherent recuperative abilities. They also recommend changes in lifestyle—in eating, exercise, and sleeping habits, for example—to their patients.
