For more than 30 years, Queens Center Chiropractic's crew has been realigning spines bullied by injuries and lifestyle habits while under the guidance of licensed chiropractor Dr. Emanuel Tsourounakis. Stiff figures sprawl out as a licensed therapist's sends trained fingers gliding across the body during a deep-tissue massage. During the 60-minute treatment, firm pressure and flowing strokes unite to increase blood circulation, reduce stress, and untie knots forming corsets across the back.

The up-to-60-minute chiropractic services further enhances bodily well-being by realigning the spine with a series of back-cracking services. A spinal evaluation and consultation explores previous health history before a back specialist inspects painful points and achy spots camped along the bodyscape. Next, a spinal adjustment works to gently untangle coiled columns, unkink hunched backs, and prepare spines for giving piggyback rides to redwood trees. The vertebrae-soothing session wraps up with the doc's recommendations on maintaining a healthy spine.
