WE HELP YOU FIND SOLUTIONS FOR:

"We brought our son in to see Dr. Nicole around the time he started sitting up. She is very gentle and caring and explains things to me in ways I can actually understand. And best of all, our son sleeps like a champ after each appointment. We're so thankful for the work Dr. Nicole does for him and our whole family."

"[Nicole] is amazing! Three visits and my baby was doing 100 times better! Seriously love her. So caring, passionate, and knowledgable. And I love that she took the time to get to know our daughter, played with her, walked with her, and made sure she was comfortable."

- Kayla O. -

"I went to see Dr. Nicole during my last pregnancy and continue to see her postpartum. She's helped so much with my neck and back stiffness from holding and breastfeeding my baby. She even gave me a few tricks to help my baby with latch and reflux. She is a very good chiropractor and a sweet woman."

- Kelly W. -

"Nicole is one of those few doctors who you can feel love pouring into what she does. Her kindness and empathy are just as powerful as her technical skill. She knows about nutrition, too. She helped me heal my leaky gut. I didn't even know that's what my problem was until I saw Nicole."

- Suzanne M. -

"Nicole has been great to work with. As an avid golfer, I battle tension in my upper back and neck and also suffer from headaches. Nicole's treatments always do the trick. She's also provided recommendations for at-home care that have been very helpful. It's nice to work with someone who gets to the root cause of your issues and really wants to see you get healthier."

- Jeremy W. -

"The best physical healing experience I've had was with Dr. Nicole. She scheduled an appointment with me as soon as possible, gave me an adjustment that healed my injury, and put me immediately on the path to recovery. I hihgly recommend Dr. Nicole. She excels at well-rounded care, bedside manner, and incredible knowledge and skill."

WHY WOULD MY BABY SEE THE CHIROPRACTOR?

Inside the womb, babies can develop structural imbalances and nerve irritation due to awkward fetal positioning or the tight space of their first home. Being born can be an intense experience that places huge forces on your child’s delicate neck, skull, and spine. Gentle chiropractic care after birth can help relieve trauma from gestation, labor, and delivery, as well as help babies dealing with colic, reflux, tongue tie, torticollis, and difficulties with nursing or bottle feeding. For more information on pediatric chiropractic care, please go here.

HOW IS COUVE CHIROPRACTIC DIFFERENT?

Dr. Nicole blocks a full hour for new patient visits, and 30 minutes for all follow-up appointments. There are no "cookie-cutter" protocols or treatment plans at Couve Chiropractic, as we truly believe in individualized, whole-person care. Each appointment will be slightly different, depending on what you and your body need on any given day or season of life.

WHAT IS THE POPPING NOISE DURING AN ADJUSTMENT?

A licensed chiropractor is trained to "palpate," or feel for movement and misalignments at the joints in your body. At synovial joints (such as many in your spine and extremities), there is a special fluid within the joint space called synovial fluid. When a chiropractor delivers certain types of adjustments, gas bubbles from the synovial fluid may be released, causing the audible popping noise, also known as a cavitation. Please note that a cavitation does not need to be heard for therapeutic benefit!
