Dr. Elwart's passion for chiropractic began after a serious injury while playing junior hockey in Canada. It was a chiropractor who relieved his headaches and ringing in the ears — and that experience inspired him to help others reach their maximum health potential without drugs or surgery.
He takes a "whole person" approach to care, looking for underlying causes of pain rather than just treating symptoms. Dr. Elwart specializes in multiple techniques including Diversified, Gonstead, Thompson, Extremity Adjusting, Activator, and Pediatrics.
