We take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our West Paterson office.

Spinal and Postural Screenings:
Posture and spinal screenings can reveal important information and unlock the door to improved health and well-being. In addition to our West Paterson office, Atlas Chiropractic offers screenings at various locations such as community events, health fairs and places of employment. Dr. Nepa is available for lectures and presentations on various health topics such as relieving your stress and exploding your energy, what you absolutely need to know about most pain conditions before resorting to surgery. Contact Atlas today to arrange a screening and/or presentation at your event or workplace— you can help increase employee productivity and morale while decreasing absenteeism and workers compensation costs.

Atlas Orthogonal (AO) Technique:
A safe, non-invasive alternative to surgery for pain relief from misalignment of the spine. AO utilizes an acoustic wave (vibration) to deliver a gentle ajustment without any popping or cracking of the spine. Of more than 3000 NJ chiropractors, Dr. Nepa is one of only 4 board certified in the AO Technique. See Atlas Orthogonal for more information.

Laser Therapy:
Low level laser and LED therapy is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near infrared) to create therapeutic effects. Results include improved healing time, pain reduction, decreased swelling and increased circulation. See Laser Therapy for more information.

3D-Active Trac:
3D-Active Trac is a safe, non-invasive option that performs cervical and lumbar decompression to treat bulging or herniated discs, facet syndrome and degenerative disc disease without surgery. For more information, see 3D-Active Trac. 

Active Release Technique:
Active Release Technique (ART) is a state-of-the art soft tissue system used to quickly and treat muscular adhesions (scar tissue that develops in muscles and adheres to the surrounding nerves) that can result from over-used muscles and cause headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel, shin splints, sciatica, tennis/golf elbow and many other painful conditions. This particular technique is presently used to treat top athletes worldwide. Dr. Nepa is certified in all levels of ART.

Corrective Exercises:
Special "blueprint" exercises designed just for our patients to help improve the effectiveness of spinal correction. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help the body stay in balance and in health.

Orthotic Scans and Footwear:
The orthotic scan provides a dynamic analysis of the way a patient stands, walks and runs with a gait analysis report (clinical summary and conclusion regarding foot function). This technology actually analyzes the foot in motion, making traditional foot molds obsolete. After a consultation with the doctor, custom orthotics may be prescribed to help align feet and body for relief and support, returning normal foot function. Orthotic footwear is commonly used by professional athletes, but is effective for any level of daily activity. Dr. Nepa utilizes Footmaxx equipment and products, used to treat more than 500,000 patients to date.
