Springtown Wellness Center provides a variety of health and wellness services for all types of patients at two locations in Livermore and San Ramon. In addition to offering treatments that range from chiropractic and needleless acupuncture to lifestyle advice and nutritional counseling, the practice has the training and equipment to perform in-office exercises and detoxifying body wraps, set up customized weight loss programs, and more.
Owner Jag Dhesi, D.C. says Springtown Wellness Center’s ability to tailor treatment plans to fit the needs of individual patients enables it to find successful solutions to unique problems. “We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to wellness; rather, we treat every patient on an individual basis. By employing different combinations of techniques, supplements, equipment and procedures, we’re able to alleviate our patients’ symptoms and return them to normal health and functionality.”
In addition to its in-house treatments, Springtown Wellness Center teaches patients corrective exercises that allow them to continue their treatments independently. As a Qualified Medical Evaluator, Dr. Dhesi is able to perform medical/legal evaluations and treat injuries associated with workers’ compensation cases, auto accidents, and more. “I’m also an in-network preferred provider for most insurance companies,” he adds.
“We believe in giving each patient the same respect and quality care that we would give our own families. Our unique ‘whole person’ approach enables us to find the underlying causes of our patients’ symptoms and accelerate their recoveries.”
Good chiropractic treatment isn’t limited to backs, necks and spines. Many people mistakenly think chiropractors only provide pain relief and adjustments for the neck, back and spine, but most chiropractors’ expertise runs much deeper than that. “Chiropractic adjustments apply to the entire body, including rib cages, arms, hands, shoulders, wrists and legs,” says Dr. Jag Dhesi, owner of Springtown Wellness Center, which has offices in Livermore, San Ramon and Fremont. “In fact, chiropractic treatments on extremities can alleviate pain caused by all types of ailments, including carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis and sinus infections.”
Mr. Dhesi says people are often misled by chiropractic firms that have logos featuring spines and backs. “That’s just one aspect of chiropractic. Patients usually learn about their other options when they come in for spinal care and mention another area that’s bothering them. They may tell their chiropractor that they rolled their ankle or have tingling in their hands, and they’re surprised when a chiropractic adjustment to those areas gives them relief.”
Here are some other lesser-known services that many chiropractors provide:
- Full-body adjustments and realignments
- Pelvis realignments
- Headache treatments and migraine relief
- Pinched nerve relief
- Diet and nutrition counseling
- Occupational and athletic movement modifications
- Asthma and allergy relief
- Dizziness and vertigo relief
- Treatment for injuries caused by auto accidents, falls, lifting, whiplash, repetitive movements and workplace accidents
So how do you find a chiropractor who can provide the pain relief you need? Dr. Dhesi recommends making a few phone calls or getting minor adjustments from several local practitioners to get a feel for what each practice offers. “Not all chiropractors are the same,” he says. “Their techniques are different, they interact differently with patients and they provide different types of services.”
Additionally, some chiropractors are comfortable working with other doctors, which is important if you’ve had an accident and are under the care of a physician, surgeon, neurologist or neurosurgeon. “It’s a huge benefit to have a chiropractor who can work with your doctor to coordinate medications, surgeries and treatments,” says Dr. Dhesi. “Ultimately, that type of partnership will help you get better faster.”
Maintaining patient satisfaction is a crucial aspect of any health care practice, but it's even more important for chiropractors that have earned the prestigious Diamond Certified award. For Springtown Wellness Center, the key to achieving and maintaining high levels of patient satisfaction is simple: take a personalized approach to chiropractic care that ensures every person who visits its facility receives the best possible treatment. "There's no ‘one size fits all' treatment when it comes to chiropractic care–every person has different needs that need to be addressed," says owner Jag Dhesi, D.C. "We never limit ourselves to one type of treatment; rather, we use every available tool to help our patients feel better."
Springtown Wellness Center has been providing health and wellness services at three locations in Livermore, San Ramon and Fremont since 2000. In addition to offering treatments that range from chiropractic adjustments to massage therapy, the practice performs detoxifying body wraps, teaches patients corrective exercises that allow them to continue their treatments independently, and more.
Unlike less experienced chiropractic practices that use harsh adjustment methods, Springtown Wellness Center prefers to take a holistic approach to patient wellness. "Our adjustments work with the curves of the spine and natural flow of the body," explains Dr. Dhesi. "We're never aggressive or rough because we want our patients to feel better after their adjustments, not sore. Each patient gets a customized treatment that's tailored to their specific needs and goals."
Springtown Wellness Center further differentiates itself from its competition by offering a wide range of lifestyle improvement services, including customized weight loss protocols and nutritional counseling. "We can help our patients meet their healthy lifestyle goals, whether they want to lose weight or just get their nutritional and physical needs under control," says Dr. Dhesi. "From supplements to counseling to exercise and stretching regimens, we're prepared to help in a variety of ways."
