Our Arlington wellness chiropractor, Dr. Wendy Jacobs, has won many awards as a family chiropractor for her highly skilled, compassionate, enthusiastic, and most importantly, effective work. Dr. Jacobs is committed to helping people with her sports medicine experience and attention to the specific needs of each patient. Along with Dr. Jacobs, our entire staff is dedicated to serving the needs of patients here and throughout Arlington and Pentagon City. Dr. Jacobs has even served as an Army chiropractor for all-Army sports teams and several professional athletic teams.
Aside from helping people overcome back pain, neck pain, sports and car accident injuries, we literally treat everyone in the family from newborns to grandparents. Our treatments are all-natural, drug-free and non-invasive, stimulating the body's own healing mechanisms. We love helping our patients, regardless of age or current condition, to achieve their optimal health goals!
Highly skilled Arlington chiropractor Dr. Wendy Jacobs provides the latest, most precise, effective spinal adjustment techniques for both injury recovery and pain relief. Additionally, Dr. Jacobs strives to assist patients in reaching their wellness goals. There are as many reasons for a spine shifting out of alignment as there are people, but in every case, these misalignments impinge upon the nervous system's ability to regulate the body's systems. Through Dr. Jacob's careful diagnosis and treatment, she gently helps the patient's spine move back into its normal position, which relieves pinched nerves. This brings pain relief and also dramatic improvement in mental and physical function in general.
Her precise, high-quality care and thorough knowledge of sports medicine has earned her a spot as Army chiropractor for several all-Army sports teams, as well as a number of professional athletic teams both local and international. As a proud U.S. Army veteran and athlete herself, she has a great understanding of their needs. At the same time, she is a family chiropractor who has adjusted many babies, children, moms (including pregnant ones), dads, and grandparents to keep the whole family going strong!
Therapeutic massage is also another one of our natural treatment offerings, simply because it is very effective at relieving pain and accelerating recovery in many ways. Massage therapy certainly feels great and contributes to stress and tension relief. But it also increases circulation, improves range of motion and flexibility, helps the body to rid itself of toxins that inhibit optimum function and reduces inflammation. Therapeutic massage is a critical aspect of our sports medicine therapies because it also relieves pain by stimulating the body to release endorphins, which are the body's natural painkillers. We offer a number of massage packages ranging from Swedish and deep tissue to trigger point therapy, sports, pregnancy, lymphatic drainage massages and more. In every case, the massage is tailored to the needs and condition of the patient.
In addition to chiropractic care and therapeutic massage, we offer acupuncture for pain relief and increased wellness in our office. Acupuncture is a time-tested, natural method of care that helps balance the body's energy and relieve pain and stress.
We are eager to help everyone in the area overcome pain and achieve their health goals, so call us today at (703) 892-0430 to find out more!
