Lafayette Chiropractor Dr John Sullivan

Lafayette chiropractor, Dr. John Sullivan, owner of Independence Chiropractic, is one of the leading providers of chiropractic therapy in the entire Lafayette area. He is the only Advanced Practitioner Certified Activator Doctor in the area, and one of the very few in the state. Our chiropractor has also developed his own technique, which he teaches to chiropractors everywhere in the United States.  He is an innovator and advocate of low-force technique, even getting licensed in Australia to spread this practice.

Our Lafayette Chiropractor's Techniques and Services

Dr. John believes in a multi-faceted and low-force approach to wellness.  His chiropractic style involves little to no physical manipulation, as is common among other chiropractors.  While he is at the cutting edge of chiropractic medicine, he also advocates nutrition and weight management to improve his clients' overall health.  Diet can not only improve health in terms of weight, but it can also decrease general back pain, and even correct problems with allergies.

One of Dr John's techniques is the Activator method.  This is the only mechanical force manual assisted instrument whose effectiveness has been proven empirically by clinical study.  Briefly, the use of this device involves the client lying face down, while the chiropractor uses the device to gently adjust the spine.  This low-force procedure has been proven effective for a wide range of back pain issues, including fibromyalgia.

Dr. John also implements cold laser therapy, which is a highly effective technique for soft tissue and joint problems.  This non-invasive technique fires a low intensity laser into the soft tissue.  This stimulates cellular activity, which accelerates healing, provides pain relief, and lessens inflammation.  This treatment is completely safe, and requires no recovery time after treatment.  Problems such as bursitis, some forms of arthritis and fibromyalgia are treated to great effects with laser treatment.

All of Dr. John's clients are invited to attend his wellness classes.  At these classes, clients are provided with strategies in diet and weight management, as well as exercise programs that can bring their overall wellbeing to a perhaps previously unrealized level.  Even allergies, in many cases, can be alleviated by proper nutrition, adequate exercises and particular lifestyle choices.

At his clinic, Dr. John also holds seminars to educate other doctors on his advanced techniques.  Chiropractors from all over the United States and Australia credit him as the source of many of their more cutting edge practices.  He is well renowned in the medical community for his contributions to the practice, which have advanced it by leaps and bounds.

Our goal at our Lafayette clinic is to "Help you renew the quality of your life by restoring your function and helping you stay healthy for the rest of your life."  We believe that this can be achieved with little or no force applied to your spine or trigger points.  To make an appointment with our clinic, please call 337-205-8848 and see how we can help you achieve a new level of wellness.
