At Heal Thyself Institute, chiropractic care goes beyond pain relief; it’s about restoring communication between the brain and body. Using Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT®) and applied kinesiology muscle testing, Dr. Waldo provides precise, gentle care that aligns the spine and supports optimal nervous system function.
Each chiropractic wellness appointment combines neurological and functional assessments to help you move, think, and feel better. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic stress, or working toward optimal performance, every session is individualized to your needs and may include co-activation therapies, red light therapy, or vibration-based stimulation to enhance results.
Dr. Waldo’s holistic approach blends hands-on techniques with a deep understanding of how the body’s structural, muscular, and neurological systems work together, supporting long-term balance, resilience, and whole-body wellness.
We view every adjustment as a communication with the brain, not just a mechanical correction. By improving how the nervous system interprets and responds to information, chiropractic care supports healing across every system of the body.
Each visit builds on the last, creating a foundation for better movement, sharper cognition, and calmer emotional regulation. For many patients, chiropractic wellness becomes a cornerstone of maintaining lifelong health and preventing future dysfunction.
SOT® focuses on the relationship between your spine, pelvis, and skull, using gentle adjustments and specialized blocking techniques to restore alignment. It’s designed to improve nervous system function without forceful twisting or "cracking."
Applied kinesiology is a method of muscle testing that helps identify imbalances, weaknesses, or dysfunction in the body. It allows us to pinpoint the root cause of an issue and tailor treatment to your exact needs.
Yes. Our techniques are adaptable for infants, children, adults, and seniors. We adjust the pressure and methods to suit each patient’s age, comfort, and condition.
Frequency depends on your goals and needs. Some patients come for a short, targeted plan, while others choose ongoing wellness care. We’ll recommend a schedule based on your exam findings and progress.
Every story is a reminder that healing happens when the brain and body work together.
Dr. Waldo is excellent at his skill. Never walk out of there not feeling better than when I went in. He has so much knowledge and just keeps learning new things.
