Holistic Alignment (Signature Service)
Dr. Darrien views the body (and spirit) as a self-healing and self-guided system when free from interference. This service combines chiropractic adjustments with dedicated time for mindful reflection on your emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. The goal of holistic alignment is to address interferences not only in your spine and nervous system but also in your overall life. This approach enhances self-awareness and helps restore natural energy flow, benefiting both your body and your life.

Based on your visit, Dr. Darrien will offer personalized guidance to align your entire being.
Who Can Benefit from Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care can benefit everyone. Dr. Darrien also specializes in working with:
- Expecting mothers (including preparing the body for pregnancy)
- Children
- Athletes
- Elders
- Laborers
- Desk workers
What to Expect
Each visit starts with a review of your overall well-being, not just focusing on pain, though that may be part of your concern. You will have the opportunity to discuss and reflect on your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual state. Dr. Darrien will use their intuition and skills to help you release blockages and restore balance.
Dr. Darrien employs a gentle approach, combining hands-on techniques with an instrument-assisted tool called an activator. This technique aids in spinal realignment and nervous system stimulation. While cavitations (gas release from joints) may occur during adjustments, they are not always present. Dr. Darrien will use the method best suited to your body and preferences.
Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy (Webster Technique)
Expecting mothers often seek chiropractic care to alleviate pelvic and back discomfort, maintain optimal pelvic balance, reduce labor time, and support postpartum recovery. Dr. Darrien uses the Webster technique to encourage optimal fetal positioning by balancing the pelvis, ligaments, and surrounding muscles. This technique is also beneficial if the baby is transverse or breech during the third trimester.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy effectively relieves tension in tight muscles, addressing neck, back, and shoulder pain. It also improves blood circulation, tissue repair, and “Qi” flow. Cupping can complement chiropractic adjustments and enhance overall health and well-being. Ask Dr. Darrien if cupping therapy is suitable for you!
Insurance + HSA/FSA
Dr. Darrien participates with BlueCross BlueShield (BCBS)/CareFirst and Aetna. If you have a HSA/FSA, you can also pay for your care using these funds or submit for reimbursement.
