Chiropractic Care in Parkland, FL

Why Parkland patients choose us for chiropractic care

Plenty of Parkland residents could find a chiropractor closer to home. They make the drive to us for chiropractic care in Parkland for three practical reasons.

• It is a straightforward drive. Our clinic at 5675 Coral Ridge Drive is about 5 to 10 minutes from Parkland straight down Coral Ridge Drive or University Drive, with free parking at the door. Patients from Heron Bay, Parkland Golf & Country Club and Pine Trails Park are here every week.
• Hours that fit a working week. We are open until 7:00 pm on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, with Wednesday afternoon and Friday morning hours, so you can come after work or before the commute without using a vacation day.
• We already know Parkland. We typically see Parkland families and youth athletes from Pine Trails Park, golfers from Heron Bay and Parkland Golf & Country Club, and parents juggling long days behind a desk and the carpool line. Your plan is built around how you actually spend your days, not a generic template.

Chiropractic care in Parkland: what we offer under one roof

People searching for “chiropractic care in Parkland” usually want two things: a clinician who will find the real cause of the pain, and a clinic where the whole plan happens in one place. The Spine and Wellness Center, founded in 2005 and led by Dr. Jared Cohen, DC, was designed around exactly that for families across north and central Broward.

• Structural care: specific chiropractic adjustments, corrective protocols and posture correction.
• Disc and nerve care: non-surgical spinal decompression on the Triton DTS table for herniated discs, sciatica and pinched nerves.
• Rehabilitation: physical therapy, core and hip stabilization, and return-to-sport programs.
• Soft tissue: Graston Technique, massage therapy and cupping for scar tissue and chronic tightness.
• Recovery and wellness: cold laser, red light, PEMF, IHHT oxygen therapy and BrainTap.

Because the diagnostics and the treatments live in the same building, your plan can change the moment a re-scan says it should — without a referral loop or a second drive from Parkland.

Which conditions do we treat for Parkland patients?

We are a spine clinic first, so the conditions we see most from Parkland cluster around the back, the neck and the nerves that run from them — the conditions behind most searches for “chiropractic care in Parkland”:

• Low back: lower back pain, herniated discs, sciatica, sacroiliac joint pain.
• Neck and head: neck pain, headaches and migraines, whiplash.
• After a crash: car accident injury care, including the paperwork Florida PIP requires.
• Active bodies: sports injury rehab, shoulder pain, knee pain, tennis and golfer’s elbow.
• Nerve entrapments: pinched nerves, carpal tunnel and repetitive strain.

Not sure which bucket you are in? The 60-second spine assessment gives us a Spine Score and likely pattern before your first visit.

How does the 4R Method work?

Every plan at The Spine and Wellness Center follows the 4R Method — Repair, Rebuild, Regenerate, Refine — because that is the order the body heals in. Skip a phase and the result does not hold.

1. Repair (3–5 visits a week, 4–8 weeks). Calm the irritated structure: decompression for discs and nerves, specific adjustments for locked joints, cold laser and ultrasound for inflammation.
2. Rebuild (2–3 visits a week, 8–16 weeks). Correct the architecture that caused it — curves, pelvic balance, deep stabilizers — with corrective care, physical therapy and Graston.
3. Regenerate (about 2 visits a week, 2+ months). Support tissue recovery and energy with red light, PEMF, IHHT oxygen therapy and BrainTap.
4. Refine (monthly). Brief structural tune-ups so the correction survives golf season, travel and desk work.

Where “chiropractic care in Parkland” starts for you depends on what visit one shows. Some Parkland patients begin in Rebuild because the pain is already quiet; most begin in Repair. Either way, we re-scan at set points so progress is measured, not assumed.

What happens at your first two visits?

We measure before we treat. The first visit is an examination; the second is your findings and plan, and the full plan is set there.

Visit one — we measure (and usually begin care)

1. A real conversation about where it hurts, what makes it worse, what you have tried and what you want back.
2. A hands-on structural exam: posture, range of motion, orthopedic and nerve-tension tests, and a neurological screen of reflexes, strength and sensation.
3. Surface EMG and thermal scanning along the spine — a painless scan that shows where muscles are guarding and where nerve irritation is likely.
4. Digital X-rays, when indicated, for disc spacing, curvature, alignment and wear. We review any MRI you bring.

Visit two — findings and plan

Your scans and images on the screen, explained in plain English and mapped to the 4R phases: what we found, what we recommend, how long it should take. Treatment starts at this visit. Want a head start before the drive from Parkland? Take the 60-second spine assessment.

Is chiropractic care safe — and what does the evidence say?

“Is it safe?” is the most common question we hear from first-time Parkland patients, and the honest answer is: for most people, yes — and the exam is how we make sure you are one of them.

• What the evidence says. NCCIH describes spinal manipulation by a trained, licensed practitioner as generally safe, with usually mild, temporary side effects, and supportive evidence for low back pain, some neck pain and some headaches (NCCIH, Chiropractic: In Depth).
• What we screen for. Fractures, spinal instability, certain vascular conditions, active cancer and recent surgery with hardware — identified on visit one by exam, scans and X-rays when indicated.
• How we adapt. Low-force and instrument-assisted techniques, decompression instead of adjustment where a disc is the driver, and a plan that changes when a re-scan says it should.

Symptoms that need a doctor today, not a chiropractor: loss of bladder or bowel control, saddle numbness, rapidly worsening weakness, a sudden severe headache, fever with spinal pain, or pain after a serious fall or crash. Please see a doctor or urgent care today if any of those apply.
