Activator Method
The Activator is the most widely used chiropractic instrument. Studies show improvement with the Activator Method. It also has been compared to other techniques and proven to be just as effective. This means that for many patients an Activator adjustment could very well lead to the same outcome as a manual adjustment. This offers chiropractors and patients an alternative to manual adjusting when it is preferred for clinical reasons.

Acupuncture is an old healing practice of traditional Chinese medicine dating back over 4,000 years. It still remains effective today as a way to strengthen the body rather than merely treating symptoms. It is primarily used to relieve pain as well as treat other conditions. More than 3 million Americans and 200,000 children in the U.S. have had acupuncture to help relieve a symptom or condition. Because of its low side effects, it has been the treatment of choice for many doctors across the country. It is even more popular in other countries.
Children’s Wellness
Naturopathic Approach to Child Wellness
Childhood is a period of rapid growth and boundless potential. It’s the perfect time to lay the groundwork for your child’s lifelong health, and naturopathy offers a holistic approach to help them achieve lasting wellness.
Naturopathy prioritizes prevention and offers support for every aspect of your child’s development. It emphasizes diet, exercise, emotional well-being, and stress management, guiding children toward holistic health at every stage of their growth.
In cases of acute conditions, naturopathy can assist with a variety of conditions such as ADHD, digestive issues, eczema, psoriasis, acne, hormone imbalances, food intolerances, and more. Natural treatments that encourage the body to heal from within are the focus, offering long-term, sustainable health solutions.
The naturopathic approach can complement conventional medicine, blending traditional treatments with tailored holistic care.
During a naturopathic consultation for children, Lake Tahoe Wellness Center looks at the child’s health in the context of their environment, lifestyle, and behavior and take a comprehensive approach, looking at factors like diet, physical activity, and family dynamics to uncover the root causes of recurring health concerns.
The first visit looks into the child’s health history, even tracing back to the mother’s pregnancy.
Understanding the child’s personality is also a key part of the assessment. In many cases, this can be as important—if not more so—than physical symptoms. The child’s temperament can provide valuable insights into the development of health imbalances and how they present. Recognizing patterns in behavior and predispositions can guide the selection of the most effective treatment, including the use of homeopathic remedies, if needed.

We specialize in correcting your body’s misalignments. Our goal is to ensure that your spine and the rest of your body are working harmoniously. To do so, we will help you develop a plan that will require light stretching, some exercise, chiropractic care, and a healthy diet.
Corrective Exercises
Corrective exercises are the use of bodily movements and/or postures to restore desirable changes in diseased or injured tissues. The corrective exercises are movement strategies that minimize or eliminate compensation. Corrective exercises should precede more integrated exercises, because they can cue the patient’s motor system to respond in a more desirable way and assist in removing or improving biomechanical constraints.
Diversified Technique
The goal of the Diversified Technique is to reduce nerve interference. There are no special or unique procedures needed. Patients are assessed using these various mechanisms: history and basic examination (orthopedic and neurologic), palpation, x-ray, leg checks and reflex procedures as well as others.
The procedure involves analyzing the full spine and extremities. The majority of adjustments used in Diversified are manual adjustments, HVLA (high velocity, low amplitude), or long lever manipulations aimed at cavitating the joint and creating an audible release. This sound is known by patients as the “popping” or “cracking” sound associated with adjustments. Some chiropractors utilize specialized equipment such as drop tables or pelvic blocks.
Flexion Distraction
Flexion Distraction is a non-invasive mechanical procedure performed within our office to help alleviate back pain. It involves gently stretching the spine to take pressure off the spinal discs (the cushions that separate the vertebrae in the spine). By relieving this pressure, bulging discs can retract back into place which takes pressure off the nerves in the spine. By decompressing the spine, it permits water, oxygen and other fluids to work their way back into the discs allowing them to heal naturally. Flexion Distraction is an excellent option for anyone with chronic back pain who wants to get back to living a pain-free life as quickly as possible.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine is a personalized and integrative approach to healthcare which involves understanding the prevention, management, and root causes of complex chronic disease. It has evolved integrative, holistic, conventional and naturopathic models to offer the most comprehensive and effective approach to healthcare in the 21st century.

At Lake Tahoe Wellness Center, we’re committed to providing comprehensive care that promotes healing, wellness, and rejuvenation. We’re excited to introduce our latest addition to our range of holistic services – the Infrared Sauna.
What is an Infrared Sauna?
An Infrared Sauna uses infrared light to create heat, which is absorbed by the body, inducing a deep, detoxifying sweat at the cellular level. Unlike traditional saunas, infrared saunas operate at lower temperatures, making it more accessible and comfortable for a wider range of individuals.
Benefits of Infrared Sauna Therapy
This cutting-edge therapy offers a multitude of benefits:
- Pain Relief: Infrared heat penetrates tissue, joints, and muscles to relieve anything from minor aches to chronic pain conditions, such as arthritis.
- Detoxification: Sweating is one of the body’s most natural ways to eliminate toxins, promoting a deep, cleansing effect.
- Relaxation and Stress Relief: The gentle heat of the sauna induces a relaxing sensation, helping to relieve stress and tension.
- Improved Circulation: Infrared sauna therapy stimulates blood flow, aiding in muscle recovery and overall circulation.
- Skin Purification: Increased sweat production helps to flush out impurities, leaving the skin glowing and refreshed.

Our team here at Lake Tahoe Wellness Center is dedicated to helping you achieve your long-term health and wellness goals by offering you reliable lifestyle advice.

Nutritional Consultations

In order to achieve that goal, we are here to offer specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to help you maintain a healthy weight.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Chiropractic care is not just for adults. In fact, more and more parents are seeing the many benefits of their children seeing a chiropractor every single day. Some of the benefits are improved sleep, improved behavior and attitude, and improved immune system function. Children encounter many physical stresses in their life that you may not realize. These stresses can cause your child’s spine to have issues in growth and development.
Pre/Postnatal Chiropractic
Here at Lake Tahoe Wellness Center, we offer a conservative approach to treating pregnant women. Our prenatal care is gentle and safe. We aim to alleviate the stress and strains of pregnancy while improving comfort for both the mother and baby. We understand the physical changes that come with pregnancy, and we offer relief without using any drugs.
Spinal Screenings
Sometimes all that stands between your daily pain and a happier, healthier you, is a chiropractic adjustment. Your body naturally wants to be in alignment, and our daily activities can throw what is naturally aligned out of balance. Also known as chiropractic manipulation, manual manipulation, or spinal manipulation, chiropractic adjustment refers to the manipulation of the vertebrae that have abnormal movements and are not functioning properly. Here at Lake Tahoe Wellness Center, we can help you achieve balance and proper alignment, giving you relief and improving your health.
Our goal in treating your joint and spinal issues is to reduce subluxation, increase range of motion, reduce nerve irritability, and improve mobility. Our highly skilled chiropractor will work with you to relieve your pain and get you back to living a pain free and healthy lifestyle.
Women’s Wellness
Radiant Renewal – Personalized Women’s Wellness
As a woman, I know life can throw a lot your way, and sometimes it feels like everything in your body is out of sync. Whether it’s menstrual irregularities, mood swings, fertility struggles, menopause, or something else—it all adds up, and before you know it, everything feels off.
But here’s the thing: your body is unique, and you deserve a personalized, holistic approach to feeling your best again. We are here to help you tap into your body’s natural balance, tackle the root causes of your health concerns, and create lasting wellness.
Worker’s Compensation
Worker’s compensation is a form of insurance that replaces lost wages and pays for medical and chiropractic care for people injured on the job. It typically covers a number of injuries that can happen to nearly any worker. These injuries may occur as a result of a slip and fall accident, tripping over a hazard or on an unsafe surface, or falling off a ladder. For some workers, workers’ compensation will cover injuries that happen while the worker is driving or traveling as part of his or her work duties.
Musculoskeletal disorders affect a person’s muscles, bones, joints and connective tissue, such as tendons and ligaments.
A number of musculoskeletal disorders can keep a worker off the job, including:
- Sprains, strains, and tears
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive stress injuries
- Headaches and migraines
