Conditions we treat

Six common reasons people walk in our door.

If none of these match, call anyway — about a third of our visits start with “I think it might be something else.”

C1 · Cervical

Neck pain & tension headaches

Desk posture, sleep position, stress-clenching — we trace the cause back further than just the soreness.

Avg. relief · 3 visits
T2 · Thoracic

Upper-back & shoulder mobility

Frozen shoulder, climbing wall plateaus, the “knot between my shoulder blades I can’t reach.”

Avg. relief · 4 visits
L4 · Lumbar

Lower-back & sciatica

Sharp, shooting or dull-and-constant. We diagnose the disc / facet / nerve first, then treat — not the other way around.

Avg. relief · 5 visits
H2 · Sports

Athletic performance & rehab

Mountain Avenue runners, Belmar climbers, REC-league soccer. Active recovery plans, not just adjustments.

Avg. plan · 6 weeks
P · Postural

Postural correction

Forward-head, anterior pelvic tilt, scoliosis monitoring. Photo measurements at intake and at the 6-week recheck.

Avg. plan · 10 weeks
Pre & post

Prenatal & postpartum

Webster-certified care all three trimesters and the first year after. Pillows + tables sized for round bellies.

Custom plan

The protocol

A six-week plan with measurable check-ins.

No mystery decade-long programs. Most patients hit the 6-week recheck, see the difference on paper, and graduate to monthly maintenance.

01

Intake & exam · Week 0

60-minute consultation with imaging review, posture photos, range-of-motion testing, written diagnosis & quoted plan before you commit.

02

Active care · Weeks 1–3

Adjustments + soft-tissue work + a short at-home mobility program. 2 visits/week for most plans, sometimes 3.

03

Strengthening · Weeks 4–6

Visits drop to once a week. We graduate from passive care to active loading so the adjustment holds.

04

Recheck & graduation · Week 6

Re-photograph the posture, retest range of motion, compare the numbers. If you’re 80%+ better we graduate you to monthly maintenance.

Your team

Three doctors. Two adjustment rooms.

All three are Doctors of Chiropractic with at least eight years in private practice — and your records are shared, so you don’t have to start from scratch if you switch providers.

DC · 12 yrs · Sports

Dr. Maya Reyes

Doctor of Chiropractic · Co-founder

“I came from the world of orthopaedic PT — and I still take the same evidence-first approach to spinal care.”

DC · 9 yrs · Prenatal

Dr. Daniel Okafor

Doctor of Chiropractic · Webster-certified

“Most low-back pain has a story. I want to hear the story first — and then I want to look at the X-rays.”

DC · 8 yrs · Sports

Dr. Lina Park

Doctor of Chiropractic · Sport DC

“Half my caseload is runners, half is desk workers. The body mechanics are more similar than you’d think.”

“Two herniations from a bike crash. Dr. Reyes did the X-ray review, walked me through the disc anatomy, and had me back on the bike at week 5. The 6-week recheck numbers were on paper.”

“I’ve seen four chiropractors. AlignWell is the first one that ran a real exam, set a real timeline, and didn’t try to sell me a five-year program.”
