Services
Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments use Activator, Diversified, Thompson, and Cox techniques to correct spinal misalignments. These methods relieve pain, improve mobility, and enhance nervous system function. Patients receive personalized treatment plans addressing back pain, neck pain, and posture issues through precise manual adjustments.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep tissue massage targets chronic muscle tension and imbalances during 15-20 minutes of each session. This therapy complements spinal adjustments by releasing trigger points and improving circulation. Our technique addresses sports injuries, repetitive strain, and postural stress through focused myofascial release.
Nutritional Coaching
Nutritional coaching focuses on whole-food-based supplements and dietary strategies to support spinal health. We recommend Moringa-based superfoods and antioxidant-rich protocols to reduce inflammation and prevent degenerative diseases. This service educates patients on daily nutrition practices that enhance chiropractic treatment outcomes.
Essential Oil Therapy
Essential oil therapy integrates plant-based remedies for pain management and wellness. We use therapeutic-grade oils to address inflammation, muscle soreness, and stress. Patients learn safe application methods for home use, complementing their chiropractic care with natural anti-inflammatory and calming benefits.
Pregnancy Chiropractic Care
Prenatal chiropractic care addresses low back pain, pelvic discomfort, and postural changes during pregnancy. Using gentle Webster Technique adjustments, we improve pelvic alignment to facilitate optimal fetal positioning. This service reduces labor complications while maintaining maternal spinal health through all trimesters.

Dr. Sean has worked with both me and my wife. He is caring, takes time to get to know you and then goes about making you feel great! Each appointment is 30 minutes directly with Dr. Sean. We have tried other larger firms in the area and nothing compares to the personal attention we get from Dr. Sean. We have found our chiropractic home!

Sean Matteo has been a great help in getting me back on track after a shoulder injury. He came highly recommended and I am so glad I followed up on that recommendation. I am now giving the Zika product a three month trial and I already see some positive improvements.

Highly intuitive, safe and knowledgeable. Finding a good chiropractor can be daunting, and in my case was traumatic. The Matteos were recommended to me. At my first appointment I knew pre-adjustment that I was in good hands, (and then it was confirmed post-adjustment) that I had found home. Thank you!

Best in town! After visiting two different chiropractic offices, and my symptoms worsening, I felt hopeless. Then someone recommended Dr. Matteo. After just a few visits, I was feeling much better. His knowledge of western and eastern medical treatment and previous medical training makes him an invaluable asset. I couldn't speak more highly of his practices and his ethics.

Report
I was referred to Dr. Sean Matteo by my primary care physician for issues with migraines, chronic back pain, and recurring knee pain. I had seen a chiropractor several years prior which was somewhat helpful, so I decided to give Dr. Matteo a chance. Well, I couldn't be happier that I did! There are a lot of reasons that I highly recommend him if you're thinking about seeing a chiropractor. First of all he has helped me with all the issues I saw him for. Second, it's obvious he really cares about his patients overall well-being as he never rushes any visit (as most doctors tend to do these days) and makes sure he knows what's going on every single time you see him. Third, I love the fact that his treatments and recommendations are all natural and he and his family "live what they preach" (not that he actually preaches to you, just meaning he won't recommend things to you he wouldn't also use on his family).
Fourth (and last), he knows that regardless of how much you know there is always room for improvement, so he will go out of his way to get more training or get training in new areas that show promise. This means you'll always get the best care available.
