For many people struggling with herniated discs, sciatica, or chronic back pain, the options they’re offered are either medications or invasive surgery. But there is another way.
At Pillars of Wellness, we focus on restoring the spine to its natural alignment and function through advanced chiropractic care and certified spinal decompression therapy. Dr. Matt Chalmers, [Hyperlink to Bio], holds a specialty certification in Spinal Decompression and has nearly 20 years of experience helping patients recover from disc injuries without surgery.

These symptoms can feel life-changing — limiting how you move, work, and even sleep.
Chiropractic adjustments restore natural alignment, reduce nerve pressure, and allow the spine to move more freely. For disc issues, this often means:
Every adjustment is customized to your unique spinal health, ensuring we correct the source of pain, not just mask the symptoms.
Spinal decompression is a specialized therapy that gently stretches the spine using a computer-controlled traction system. Unlike traditional traction, decompression works in cycles of gentle pull and relaxation, creating a vacuum effect inside the discs.
This process:
Because Dr. Chalmers is certified in Spinal Decompression, you receive care at the highest level of safety and precision.
Most patients experience gradual relief over several sessions, with benefits building as discs rehydrate and nerve pressure decreases. The combination of:
…creates a powerful, non-surgical path back to normal movement, strength, and confidence.
✨ Don’t let back pain or sciatica control your life. Healing starts here.
