30 + years in practice. We specialize in the Activator Method of Chiropractic treatment which utilizes a hand held instrument instead of manual manipulation. The treatment is very safe and gentle and extremely effective in treating musculo-skeletal problems. We have a very friendly and professional staff. We live by the golden rule...we will treat you as we would want to be treated ourselves.
I've been going to Dr. Thatcher for over 20 years and have always had excellent care. I like the activator method of adjustments which is gentle as it targets specific areas for realignment rather than other practices which do manual manipulation. (Some other practices where they wrenched my neck around, I left in more pain than when I entered.) I first visited Dr. Thatcher for sciatic pain which was so painful I couldn't sleep. I found relief after just one visit and have returned to him whenever I've had acute pain over the years (over-lifting, carpal tunnel, car accident, and the incident of dropping a canoe on my head - yeah, that wasn't the brightest move on my part.) Dr. Thatcher also maintains an excellent list of trusted therapists in complementary practices such as deep tissue massage, craniosacral work, and others. I highly recommend Thatcher Chiropractic to anyone who wants their body to feel better.
First time I visited Dr. Thatcher three years ago when I suffered from intolerable pain caused by arthritis in my neck. Not having any experience with chiropractors before I've been a bit apprehensive about the whole thing. Well, wright during this first visit Dr. Thatcher used his "magic" activator and my pain was almost completely gone. Since then I see Dr. Thatcher regularly and it keeps the pain away. Also Dr. Thatcher has the friendliest and the most caring stuff. I have recommended his service to relatives and friends and they all benefit from it.
