Are Neck, Knee, or Back Problems Causing Pain? Our Charlottesville Chiropractor Can Help

Our chiropractors focus on diagnosing and treating disorders of the muscles, joints, and nervous system. It has recently been recognized as a good first line defense when facing lower back pain to prevent surgery. It is thought that chiropractors only treat the spine, but there are a variety of other conditions that can benefit from treatment. People across all age groups may benefit from chiropractic care to reduce pain and increase function throughout their daily lives and recreation.


Chiropractic has classically been thought to only consist of spinal adjustments, but has evolved into including treatments that improve the body’s ability to function normally. In addition to adjustments, our chiropractic staff offers exercise programs, soft tissue techniques including Active Release and Graston. We offer a variety of adjustment techniques to meet the needs of each individual ranging from manual adjustments to gentle drop table and instrument assisted adjusting.


Chiropractors are also skilled in providing advice on lifestyle and ergonomic modifications, which are often necessary to help you achieve the best outcome possible from treatment. 


We believe in a balanced approach to injury recovery. We treat the whole person, and not just the injured part. We provide a comprehensive treatment plan to provide you the best evidenced-based care, it may include: spinal manipulation, therapeutic exercise, lifestyle changes, ergonomic recommendations, and at times may even include a referral for comanagement. Our goal is to help guide your path towards achieving your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What conditions do Chiropractors treat?

    Chiropractors are especially well known for their expertise in caring for patients with back pain, neck pain and headaches. They also care for patients with a wide range of injuries and disorders of the musculoskeletal system, involving the muscles, ligaments and joints. Chiropractors can also counsel patients on diet, nutrition, exercise, healthy habits, and occupational and lifestyle modification.

  • Is chiropractic treatment dangerous?

    Chiropractic care is safe when delivered by trained professionals — and at Balanced, it’s always paired with a tailored physical therapy plan. We’re not here to “crack and send you home.” We listen, diagnose, and build smart programs to heal and strengthen. Our patients include everyone from athletes to seniors, and even infants with mobility issues — all treated with care, precision, and respect.

  • Why does Balanced not perform imaging on everyone?

    We don’t default to imaging because we start with deep evaluations. If your condition clearly requires imaging, we’ll recommend it — but many issues can be diagnosed and treated effectively through movement assessments, orthopedic tests, and clinical experience. Our approach is practical and patient-first, not procedure-first.

  • Are my bones really out of alignment?

    No! While some bones may become very slightly rotated due to muscular tone, your bones are right where they need to be. Adjustments are extremely effective in reducing pain through endorphin release and decreasing muscular tension to improve spinal movement.

  • Do I need a referral for chiropractic?

    No referral needed. You can book directly with us — whether it’s for chiropractic care, physical therapy, or both. We’ll assess your situation and recommend the right path forward, whether you're recovering from surgery, managing pain, or just trying to move better.

  • Will my insurance cover my visits?

    In most cases, yes — but we’ll walk you through the details before you start. Our front desk is known for being fast, helpful, and clear. If insurance isn't your best route, we’ll make sure you understand your options up front.

  • What if I’ve tried chiropractic or PT before and it didn’t help?

    We hear that a lot — and it's usually because care was too generic or rushed. Our team takes the time to assess the root cause, not just the pain location. Many of our patients came in after trying other clinics with no luck — and left finally feeling better, stronger, and confident in their recovery

  • What makes Balanced different from other chiropractic clinics?

    We’re not a one-size-fits-all, walk-in/walk-out clinic. Our care is coordinated, hands-on, and outcome-focused. You’ll often work with a team — chiropractor, physical therapist, massage therapist — all under one roof. It’s not just about pain relief. It’s about long-term function.

  • What kinds of techniques do you use?

    Depends on what your body needs. We may use adjustments, dry needling, manual therapy, strengthening programs, mobility work, massage, and more. Every treatment plan is built around your injury, lifestyle, and goals — no cookie-cutter plans here.
