HEALTHCARE
Move Without Pain
Abnormal body alignment can cause chronic joint pain. Similar to any structure, when moving parts rub, they wear unevenly. In the human body, abnormal tracking can cause joint inflammation, and over time, even joint loss.
The Pearl Health Center is pleased to announce we now offer custom made foot orthotics. Our Chiropractors are specially trained to assess your individual gait, posture and foot imprint. These simple shoe inserts can create amazing realignment of your foot, knees, hip and spine. Are you exercising less or exercising with pain? Do the heels of your shoes wear unevenly? Do you notice chronic foot, knee hip or back pain that interferes with usual activities? Dr. John Howell and Chris Zander will examine your symptoms, abnormal tracking in your joints, how stable your body moves and how to prevent reoccurring injury. They will then fit you for custom made orthotics
Make an appointment today for your evaluation. Then get out there and walk your way to health.
The Pearl Health Center accepts all insurances. For individuals without insurance we offer 50% discount for evaluation and orthotic products.
The Pearl District is home to some of the best Healthcare Providers in the city:
