Back Pain Management
Our back pain management program addresses spinal subluxations through precise chiropractic adjustments that restore proper nerve function. Using motion palpation and diversified techniques, we target misalignments causing discomfort from herniated discs, muscle strains, and sciatica. Patients receive personalized treatment plans combining spinal manipulation with rehabilitative exercises to strengthen core muscles and prevent future injuries. This comprehensive approach helps patients achieve lasting relief without relying on medication or surgery.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Pediatric chiropractic care focuses on early spinal health to prevent future complications. Our gentle techniques address birth trauma, colic, and developmental issues through light pressure adjustments suitable for newborns and children. Regular check-ups help ensure proper nervous system development, improving sleep patterns, digestion, and immune function while reducing the need for childhood medications.
Sports Injury Recovery
Sports injury recovery combines chiropractic adjustments with targeted rehabilitation programs for athletes. We treat ligament sprains, muscle strains, and joint injuries using flexion/distraction techniques and therapeutic exercises. Our approach accelerates healing while improving range of motion and preventing re-injury through biomechanical assessments and customized strengthening protocols tailored to each athlete's specific sport requirements.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are precision-engineered shoe inserts that correct biomechanical imbalances affecting posture and gait. Using 3D laser foot scanning technology, we create personalized arch supports that alleviate foot pain while addressing related knee, hip, and back issues caused by improper weight distribution and altered foot mechanics.
Prenatal Chiropractic
Prenatal chiropractic care addresses the unique physical demands of pregnancy through specialized adjustments that accommodate growing bellies. Our treatment focuses on maintaining pelvic alignment to ease labor preparation while relieving back pain, sciatica, and joint discomfort caused by postural changes and hormonal shifts during pregnancy.

Been going for about 2 weeks now and can't say enough. Front staff is very friendly and explain everything for you. Dr. Gibson is very attentive to your issues and works on what will be the best care for what it is. He's very informative and explains everything in a manner that anyone can understand. I highly, highly recommend him for chiropractic care. Will continue to return while I'm in the area.

When I moved from Massachusetts I needed a new chiropractor. I chose Dr. Gibson solely because my sister had worked for him and she had spoken very positively about him. He has been the right choice for me, who has had back problems since high school. He not only does a great job with adjustments, but also gives me excellent excersises that help me keep my back and neck healthy. His entire staff and he are clearly concerned about their patients' health and work efficiently to care for each person who walks through the door. I recommend his practice without hesitation.

I began my chiropractic healing in daily discomfort from top to bottom, and within months Dr. Gibson has helped me tremendously. I feel myself again, free of constant pain, and am even able to comfortably practice yoga daily again! Dr. Gibson and his team are the best; always professional and kind. Always a great way to start my day. Highly recommend East Pond. :

Since I have been a patient here, these issues are almost non existent now and has completely changed my life for the better. Dr. Gibson and his staff are always helpful and cheery! Chiropractic is key in wellness care. I highly recommend Dr. Gibson!

I have been going to Dr. Gibson for about 2 years for lower back issues. I have had a huge improvement regarding my back pain. Also, I generally feel better all over, better concentration, better mood, don't think I have had even a cold since coming here, and i feel more equipped to handle stress in my life. Dr. Gibson and his staff are always happy and helpful and greet everyone with a smile. Absolutely a feel good place - Highly recommend!
