If you’re looking for a gentle, effective chiropractic treatment option, the Activator Method may be right for you. Developed in 1967 by Dr. Arlan Fuhr, the Activator Method is a mechanical instrument that delivers a controlled, light force to the spine or other areas of the body.
Activator-trained chiropractors are highly skilled in using this precise instrument to treat conditions such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, and migraines. The Activator Method is often used as an alternative to manual adjustments, which can sometimes be too forceful for some patients.

I didn't know what I was going to do until walking into Ridge Chiropractic. Walking was so painful and I didn't want to leave home. Dr. Levi listened to my issues and gave me a recommendation plan. Pain so much better! I highly recommend decompression along with the adjustments.
I have had 2 back surgeries, 2 neck surgeries and if I had not gone to the Ridge, I would be headed for another very serious back surgery. I was willing to try anything to keep from having another surgery. Dr. Levi X-rayed & told me he thought he could help. I am almost halfway through the treatment plan.
I haven’t been able to lay on my stomach for at least 20-25 years. I woke up yesterday morning so comfortable and resting so good, and then realized I was laying on my stomach!! Not a pain anywhere!! I felt like I had received a miracle.
I highly recommend Dr. Levi, he and his staff are always kind and helpful.

Very nice clean facility, I was given a tour with explanation of the rooms. Dr Levi very nice and made me feel at ease, I had never been to a chiropractor.
Dr. Levi and his staff are amazing. Me and my husband drive an hour away to get treatments from him. And we are glad to do it He is a Great Chiropractor and Person
Dr McQueary is very knowledgeable when educating and explaining treatment options and plans. The facility and equipment are always immaculate. I’m early on into my treatment plan but already notice the difference, sadly over time we condition ourselves overtime to live with pain but it doesn’t have to be that way. Check out Dr McQueary, you will be surprised by how many different conditions actually improve with thoughtful insight and treatment.
I'm not one to leave reviews but I think people need to know how my visit was. I have been to other chiropractors and not a good experience and was not really expecting any difference here, but how I was wrong. First thing is the staff was ok like normal. The big thing was Dr McQueary he treated me with belief and listened. He never once rushed or did I ever feel rushed. He explained and gave the impression of someone who truly wants to help. He seemed very smart, patient, kind, and concerned which is rare these days. Yes this was my first visit but I have never felt more in the hands of a Dr that wants me better as much as I do. So I recommend everyone who needs a chiropractor to visit The Ridge-Dr. McQueary.
I spent decades of my life not believing in chiropractors. All of the stereotypes, I don't have to elaborate.
I'm athletic, I work hard in the gym, I take care of my body ... and finally, I had a distinct injury to my neck doing an intense deadlift and HSPU workout. Because of proximity to my workplace, I decided to give Ridge a chance. Over the next few months more happened and this is the list ...
1) Neck spasms and pain from weightlifting injury - Corrected
2) Spinal Curve (unknown for years) - Corrected
3) Acute Spinal disc injury (ultimate frisbee with high school kids at church) - Corrected
4) Knee Pain from heavy weightlifting - Corrected
I'm yet to come into the office with something they can't treat and for my age, I do some silly stuff athletically.
If you have aches and pains, please try this before you get on pills or start with other treatments.
I had legitimate pain and injuries that were 100% corrected through care at The Ridge Chiropractic. My issues will be addressed here before I take them anywhere else for the rest of my life. No hesitation.
Hands down Dr. Levi is the best chiropractor that I have ever been to, in my life; and I have been to some great chiropractors, but Levi is on a whole different level. Thank you so much, my back killed me for four months, and I am so grateful for you taking that pain away.
Months later, and I still am able to move, sleep, work, and do things that I have not been able to do without having pain. At "The Ridge Chiropractic," the entire staff are absolutely phenomenal. They are always friendly, smiling, and they enjoy helping others. If you haven't been there yet, I highly recommend that you go try it out.
These people are absolutely amazing all of them. Dr Levi makes you feel so welcome and so does the staff great atmosphere and he most definitely can make you pop
