What is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care is a healthcare discipline focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. At Dr. Beth’s Chiropractic Clinic in Collingwood, Ontario, we believe in a gentle, evidence-based approach that honors your body’s natural healing capacity.
With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Beth Teskey has developed a soft-touch methodology that sets our clinic apart. Rather than using aggressive manipulations, we employ specialized techniques and advanced technology to restore proper alignment, relieve nerve interference, and help your body function at its best.
The Philosophy Behind Our Approach
Traditional chiropractic often relies on forceful adjustments with audible popping sounds. We’ve moved beyond that model. Our philosophy recognizes that the nervous system controls every function in your body. When vertebrae become misaligned—what we call “subluxations”—they can interfere with nerve signaling, leading to pain, reduced mobility, and dysfunction.
Our gentle approach focuses on removing this interference without unnecessary force. This is particularly important for patients who are anxious about treatment, those with fragile health conditions, or anyone who simply prefers a more comfortable experience.
Our Specialized Techniques
Dr. Beth specializes in soft-touch adjustment techniques combined with the ArthroStim adjusting instrument. The ArthroStim delivers 12-14 controlled, incremental thrusts per second, creating a gentle tapping sensation rather than the forceful snap associated with traditional adjustments. This precision instrument stimulates proprioceptors—sensors in your body that help maintain balance and coordination.
We also utilize the NASA-certified nerve scan technology at your initial consultation. This non-invasive assessment detects nerve interference and provides a complete picture of your spinal health, guiding our personalized treatment plan.
Conditions We Treat
Chiropractic care can address a wide range of conditions. Our patients come to us with back pain, neck pain, headaches and migraines, vertigo, sciatica, fibromyalgia, anxiety, TMJ disorders, brain fog, numbness and tingling, sleep issues, arthritis, and sports injuries. Each condition receives individualized attention, with treatment plans tailored to your specific needs.
What makes chiropractic care unique is that we don’t just treat symptoms—we address the underlying cause. By correcting spinal misalignments, we help your nervous system function optimally, which can have far-reaching effects on your overall health.
What Makes Our Clinic Different
Dr. Micheline Cote, who has been practicing since 1982 and specializes in Activator Methods, works alongside Dr. Beth to provide comprehensive care. Together, they combine decades of expertise with a patient-centered approach that emphasizes your comfort and results.
