Specialty Chiropractic Care in Fairfax, VA

At NoVA Gonstead Chiropractic, we understand that every patient is different. Your age, activity level, lifestyle, work demands, previous injuries, and current symptoms can all affect how your body functions.

That is why we do not believe that every patient should receive the exact same approach.

Our specialty chiropractic care combines the principles of the Gonstead System with a detailed examination and individualized treatment approach. The goal is to identify the areas of the spine and musculoskeletal system that may be contributing to your symptoms and determine an appropriate chiropractic care plan for your individual needs.

Chiropractic Care Designed Around You

Some patients seek chiropractic care for a specific condition or life stage, while others need care because of an injury, physical activity, or long-standing postural stress.

At NoVA Gonstead Chiropractic, specialty care may include chiropractic services for:

• Pregnancy and prenatal care
• Pediatric chiropractic care
• Webster Technique
• Sports and athletic injuries
• Auto accident and personal injury cases
• Neck and back pain
• Sciatica and radiating pain
• Posture and spinal alignment concerns
• Chronic or recurring musculoskeletal problems
• Patients with physically demanding jobs or activities

Each patient begins with an appropriate consultation and examination so that care can be based on individual findings rather than simply treating a symptom.

Pregnancy Chiropractic Care

Pregnancy can place significant physical demands on the spine and pelvis as the body adapts to a growing baby.

Dr. Kang is Webster Technique certified and provides chiropractic care for pregnant patients with an emphasis on evaluating the spine and pelvis and maintaining comfortable, functional movement throughout pregnancy.

Care is individualized according to the patient's stage of pregnancy, condition, and examination findings.

Webster Technique

The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic technique commonly used during pregnancy. It focuses on the pelvis and surrounding structures with the goal of reducing musculoskeletal restrictions and supporting balanced pelvic function.

Webster Technique is not intended to manually turn a baby. Rather, it is a chiropractic technique directed toward the mother's musculoskeletal system.

Pediatric Chiropractic Care

Children experience many physical changes as they grow. Falls, sports, backpacks, prolonged sitting, and other everyday activities can place stress on the developing musculoskeletal system.

Pediatric chiropractic care at NoVA Gonstead Chiropractic is individualized according to the child's age, size, development, and examination findings.

Our approach emphasizes gentle, age-appropriate evaluation and care rather than simply applying adult treatment methods to children.

Parents may consider an evaluation when a child is experiencing concerns such as:

• Neck or back discomfort
• Postural concerns
• Sports-related musculoskeletal problems
• Recurrent aches or tension
• Physical stress associated with school, backpacks, or prolonged sitting
• Recovery following certain injuries

Sports and Activity-Related Care

Athletes and active individuals place repetitive demands on their bodies. Training, competition, repetitive movements, and previous injuries can affect spinal and extremity function.

Gonstead chiropractic care may be used as part of an athlete's overall approach to musculoskeletal care, with attention to spinal alignment, joint motion, posture, and functional movement.

Whether you participate in recreational activities or competitive sports, our goal is to understand how your individual activities may relate to your current condition.

Auto Injury Chiropractic Care

Even when an automobile accident does not cause an obvious fracture or major structural injury, the sudden forces involved in a collision can affect the spine and surrounding soft tissues.

At NoVA Gonstead Chiropractic, auto-injury patients receive an individualized examination to document their condition and identify areas requiring attention.

When appropriate, chiropractic care may be incorporated into a patient's recovery plan following an automobile accident.

Neck and Back Problems

Neck and back complaints are among the most common reasons people seek chiropractic care.

Rather than focusing only on where a patient feels pain, the Gonstead approach emphasizes a detailed evaluation of the spine to identify areas of abnormal motion, alignment, or mechanical dysfunction.

Depending on the examination findings, care may address conditions involving the:

• Cervical spine
• Thoracic spine
• Lumbar spine
• Pelvis
• Sacroiliac region
• Extremities and related joints

Individualized Chiropractic Care

Specialty chiropractic care does not mean that every patient receives a completely different philosophy of care. Instead, it means that the application of chiropractic care is adapted to the individual patient.

At NoVA Gonstead Chiropractic, we take into consideration your history, symptoms, physical examination, spinal findings, lifestyle, and specific needs when developing a care plan.

Our goal is to provide focused chiropractic care based on the patient's individual condition rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
