Why we are Unique
Unlike standard chiropractic visits, our service integrates multiple modalities—chiropractic adjustments, dry needling, acupuncture, blood flow restriction training and functional assessments—within a single session if needed.
-
Chiropractic adjustments, also known as spinal manipulations, involve the application of controlled, sudden force to specific joints in the spine. This procedure aims to , restore range of motion, and reduce pain. Evidence suggests that chiropractic adjustments can be effective in managing acute and chronic low back pain, neck pain, and certain types of headaches by enhancing joint mobility and decreasing inflammation. These adjustments promote the body's natural ability to heal itself without the use of medication or surgery, making chiropractic care a valuable component of conservative musculoskeletal treatment.
-
Targeted rehabilitation exercises focus on specific muscles or joints affected by injury or surgery, promoting faster recovery and reducing the risk of further complications. These exercises enhance strength, flexibility, and range of motion in the injured area while minimizing strain on surrounding tissues. By addressing individual needs, targeted rehab helps restore function efficiently and supports long-term health and mobility.
-
Dry needling is a therapeutic technique used by healthcare professionals to relieve muscle pain and tightness. It involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific trigger points or tight bands within muscles. The goal is to stimulate these points to release tension, improve blood flow, and promote natural healing.
Unlike acupuncture, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine principles, dry needling focuses on the musculoskeletal system and is rooted in Western anatomical and neurophysiological concepts. It can be effective for conditions such as muscle strains, tension headaches, myofascial pain syndrome, and sports injuries.
-
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissue. This stimulation is believed to promote natural healing, reduce pain, and improve overall wellness by balancing the body's energy flow, known as "Qi." Acupuncture is commonly used to treat various conditions such as chronic pain, headaches, arthritis, and stress-related disorders. It is considered a complementary therapy supported by research demonstrating its effectiveness when integrated with conventional medical treatments.
-
Blood flow restriction (BFR) training is a technique that involves applying a specialized cuff or band to partially restrict blood flow to a muscle group during low-intensity exercise. This method limits venous return while maintaining arterial inflow, creating a hypoxic environment in the muscle. The restricted blood flow leads to increased muscle fatigue and metabolic stress, stimulating muscle growth and strength gains similar to those achieved with high-intensity training. BFR training is often used in rehabilitation settings and by athletes to improve muscle size and function while minimizing joint stress and the risk of injury.
-
Cupping works for musculoskeletal (MSK) pain by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, releasing muscle tension, and modulating pain signals via nerve stimulation, though high-quality trials are still developing. It creates suction, drawing blood to the surface, which helps deliver nutrients, remove waste, and promote tissue healing, while also stimulating nerves to block pain signals, often combined with movement for best results.
-
IASTM (Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization) is a manual therapy technique used by physical therapists, chiropractors, and other healthcare professionals to treat soft tissue injuries. It involves using specialized tools made from stainless steel or other materials to massage and scrape the skin gently over muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This process helps detect and break down scar tissue, adhesions, and fascial restrictions, promoting healing and improving mobility.
IASTM aims to:
Increase blood flow to the affected area
Reduce inflammation and pain
Enhance tissue repair and regeneration
Improve range of motion and function
It is commonly used for conditions such as tendonitis, muscle strains, plantar fasciitis, and repetitive strain injuries. The treatment is typically combined with other rehabilitation exercises and modalities to support optimal recovery.
-
Kinesiology taping is a therapeutic technique that involves applying specialized elastic tape to the skin to support muscles, joints, and ligaments without restricting movement. The tape is designed to mimic the elasticity and thickness of human skin, allowing for natural motion while providing support. It helps improve circulation, reduce pain and inflammation, enhance muscle function, and promote faster recovery from injuries. Kinesiology taping is widely used by athletes, physical therapists, and healthcare professionals as part of injury prevention and rehabilitation programs.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
At Stoneberger Performance and Family Care, we choose not to accept insurance for our chiropractic rehabilitation services. While this approach may seem unconventional, it is designed with your best interest in mind.
By not navigating the constraints of insurance protocols, we are able to provide truly personalized care tailored specifically to your unique health needs. Insurance often limits treatment options and frequency, which can hinder your path to full recovery. Without these restrictions, we focus entirely on what will most effectively restore your function and wellness.
This freedom allows us to spend ample time with each patient, thoroughly assessing and adjusting the treatment plan as you progress. It also reduces administrative burdens and overhead costs, enabling us to maintain high-quality care and transparency in pricing.
Ultimately, our goal is to deliver superior outcomes, helping you regain optimal health and performance as efficiently and safely as possible. Choosing a cash-based model empowers us to put your wellbeing at the forefront—because your recovery truly deserves nothing less.
We also accept HSA/FSA and offer payment plans.

Every patient and condition progresses uniquely, reflecting the complexity of individual health journeys. Understanding this variability is crucial because optimal recovery is not solely about alleviating pain but about restoring proper function to prevent future flare-ups. Pain often serves as a late indicator of dysfunction; it is typically the last symptom to manifest and the first to subside once treatment begins. Therefore, while pain relief is a welcomed milestone, the primary focus must remain on regaining and maintaining optimal function. This approach ensures long-term stability and reduces the risk of recurrence, supporting sustained health rather than just temporary comfort.
That being said, our care plans have end dates. Our goal is to have you back on your feet as fast physiologically possible and more resilient than ever.

Depending on your needs, your session might include dry needling, soft tissue work, joint mobilization, customized corrective exercise or much more. We pride ourselves on treating the whole patient, not just the painful joint, because that is how you create lasting change.

No. In Kansas, Chiropractors are portal of entry providers. You can book your evaluation directly with us without waiting weeks for a referral from another doctor. However, if you were recommended to us by your doctor, we would love to hear about it!
