i spa is pleased to announce the latest addition to our health care family. We would like to welcome Dr. Katie Hicks, D.C. to our team as our new chiropractic physician!  Dr. Hicks is a graduate from Palmer College of Chiropractic Florida and we believe she will be a great fit in our wellness community.  She believes in overall health and is passionate about how chiropractic can help achieve this.

Dr. Hicks focuses on returning the body back to its healthy state.  Whether you've recently injured yourself or have had pain for years, she's confident that chiropractic, in conjunction with what i spa already has to offer, can help you feeling the best you have in years.  She has experience treating low back pain, sciatica, hip pain, neck pain, and headaches.  She also has experience treating other ailments you may not otherwise think to go to a chiropractor for, such as knee pain, shoulder pain, sports injuries, and TMJ dysfunction.

The types of treatment methods Dr. Hicks uses varies according to the patient's needs.  Typically, manual adjustments are used which creates that "crack" that most associate chiropractic with; but that's not the only method available to her patients.  She can accommodate patients who are hesitant of manual adjustments using an adjusting tool known as an "activator." This tool uses a low force adjustment that is much gentler, but is found to be very effective.  In addition to chiropractic adjustments, other therapeutic modalities are available such as electric-stimulation, ultrasound, Graston, and kinesiotaping.

Dr. Hicks is very excited about being a part of i spa and welcomes anyone who would like to meet her and discuss what chiropractic can do for them.  Come by and meet our new chiropractor or give us a call to schedule your appointment today!
