Headaches
Arthritis
While many people think of arthritis as a condition that only affects older people, the truth is it affects most people earlier in life due to wear and tear that could have been prevented – had you known! A few forms of arthritis affect children still in diapers, while the most common types affect those in the prime of their lives. Arthritis actually consists of more than 100 different conditions of which can be managed by both Chiropractic and Acupuncture. These can range from tendinitis, bursitis, and osteoarthritis to crippling conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Have no fear – your doctors at ASFCA are trained in how to best treat you.
Fibromyalgia
If so, you are probably trying to figure out what that means for you. Fibromyalgia is a condition that causes mild to severe generalized musculoskeletal pain and inflammation. It is often accompanied by fatigue, memory and mood issues and sleep disturbances. Symptoms sometimes begin after a physical trauma, surgery, infection or significant psychological stress. In other cases, symptoms gradually accumulate over time with no single triggering event.
Plantar Fasciitis
This biochemical increase in cell energy is used to transform live cells from a state of illness to a stable, healthy state. Conditions that Cold Laser Therapy is known to help include: headaches & migraines, herniated disc, arthritis, peripheral neuropathy, sprains/strains, plantar fasciitis, fractures, and tendinitis.
Medical Weight Loss
The healing power of red and near infrared light therapy is undeniably effective when treating chronic pain, inflammation, and encouraging weight loss; but many of our patients are taking advantage of rejuvenating effects of light therapy.

We will examine all your symptoms and develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs.

Ear Infections
Infants do a lot of growing in the first year of life. They learn to hold their head up, roll over, sit, crawl and walk. It is normal for babies to fall when they are learning to walk, but each of these falls creates a new subluxation. By the time the baby is a toddler; these subluxations have become their normal. Subluxations can affect the nervous system and lead to a less effective immune systems increasing the occurrence of chronic colds, ear infections, bedwetting and poor sleep.
Emergency Care
Dr. Colton Bartels was born in Nebraska and grew up in central Kansas. As a competitive runner, Dr. Bartels’ first experience with chiropractic came as a result of a sports injury. Initially, a trip to the emergency room resulted in being told there was nothing serious going on, and he was given a prescription for painkillers and was told to rest. Two weeks later, having experienced no improvement, Dr. Bartels went to a chiropractor, and within 2 visits was back out on the track running. This experience led to his desire to pursue chiropractic as a profession. LEARN MORE
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Fibromyalgia is categorized as a very common disorder with more than three million new cases in the US each year. For unknown reasons, women are much more likely to develop fibromyalgia than men. Many people who have fibromyalgia also have tension headaches, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, and anxiety and depression, which often exacerbate the condition. Simple daily activities such as carrying in the groceries or walking up a flight of stairs can seem impossible.
Urinary Incontinence

Pregnancy
Labor and Delivery
Every expectant mother wants a comfortable pregnancy and an easy delivery. Prenatal chiropractic care can help to achieve both by focusing treatment on nerves that are in the spine that effect the pelvis, uterus and even contractions during the delivery process. During labor and delivery stiff joints and nerve interference can minimize the strength of contractions which can slow a baby’s decent during labor. Chiropractic care during pregnancy helps to maximize nervous system function and in combination with regular prenatal care it can increase the strength of contractions during delivery.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Do you ever have sensations like tingling or numbing in your hand, thumb, index, middle or ring finger? Do you ever feel pain down into your hand or shooting up your arm towards your neck? How about a weak feeling in your hands? Does it come on after activities such as typing, driving, or answering phones and wake you up in the middle of the night? If so, you may have carpal tunnel syndrome and we are confident we may be able to help!
Autism
Considering all variant disorders that fall under Autism’s umbrella, its presentation can vary significantly from person to person. However, many with Autism can have similar traits that can affect a person cognitively, physically, emotionally, and socially.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
In the United States of America alone, one child in 59 is diagnosed with a form of Autism. Autism Spectrum Disorder, or ASD, is a broad term to refer to a wide range of conditions characterized by its challenges with communication, social skills, and repetitive behaviors. Diagnosis of Asperger’s and Attention Deficient Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) fall under the Autism’s umbrella[i]. Most children are diagnosed with a form of Autism by the age of 4, but it can usually be reliably identified as early age 2. Boys are four times more likely to be diagnosed with Autism than girls. One in 37 boys is identified as Autistic, as opposed to one in 151 girls[ii]. Given the number of individuals that were diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder has increased exponentially over the years, the likelihood that you know or have encountered someone with this condition is high. It’s so prevalent that April is considered Autism Awareness Month. Read further to see how the staff at ASFCA cares for their Autistic patients
Depression
Mental Health
Is anxiety something you have struggled with controlling and reducing on your own? Well, you’re not alone as mental health issues are one of the largest challenges in the US estimated to affect around 40 million adults. Of these issues, anxiety disorders are the most common according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America. Anxiety can contribute to problems such as headaches, muscle tension, stiffness, or even the inability to sleep and Chiropractic and Acupuncture can HELP!
Anxiety

Ultrasound
Ultrasound therapy is another form of treatment to help ease the pain and stiffness of sore, injured and/or overworked muscles in addition to speed up healing.
MRI
There are many issues that can cause severe back pain. Pinched nerves, pulled muscles, bulging or herniated discs, and possibly more, but only an X-ray, CT Scan, MRI, or doctor can diagnose what has occurred, not WebMD. The specially trained Chiropractors and Acupuncturists at Advanced Sports & Family Chiropractor & Acupuncture have the knowledge and equipment to offer a professional diagnose. If they feel that a MRI or CT scan is required, they will outsource the tests and have the information within a few days. ASFCA has onsite digital x-ray equipment that can help rule out the need for more extensive screening tests and be seen within about 12 seconds of taking the image.

Sciatica
In the clinical study of 778 patients has showed that Disc Decompression Therapy was more than 70% successful in the treatment of herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, facet syndrome, and sciatica. In this same study, 92% of patients had a reduction in their pain of at least one point on the 0 to 5 scale. (Neurological Research; Volume 20, Number 3, April 1998).

Pinched Nerve

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
Did you know your foot is made of 26 tiny bones? If only one of these bones is misaligned or not functioning properly pain and discomfort can and usually will result. The foot also contains a multitude of ligaments, tendons and muscles which are directly affected by these mis-alignments. Slips, falls, athletics, sports injuries, traumas, sprains and strains to our feet can lead to these mis-alignments. Simple and proper adjustments to correct alignment issues in the foot can decrease pain and increase function. The proper mechanics and workings of the foot are terribly important as these mis-alignments will usually alter your walking or step pattern and lead to causing knee, hip and lower back problems.
Physical Therapy
The staff at ASFCA Overland Park believes that health and wellness equal prevention. ASFCA provides physical therapy services as a compliment to chiropractic and acupuncture.
Occupational Therapy
For parents who are seeking care for their child who was newly diagnosed with Autism, consider Pediatric Chiropractic Care. Chiropractic care, alongside other treatments like occupational therapy, their developmental pediatrician prescribes, assists children’s overall physical health and cognitive function. Maintaining a healthy spinal alignment also helps Autistic children with other problems like digestive disorders, sleep disturbances, and bedwetting. Since our doctors can determine many of these issues during their assessment, this is exceptionally beneficial for Autistic patients, especially those whose children have speech delays.
Tennis Elbow
A case study from the Journal of the Canadian Chiropractic Association followed a 51-year old male who played recreational tennis. The patient was initially treated with physical therapy, an elbow strap and corticosteroid injections. In about a months’ time, the patient returned; and described a return of the pain as the worst pain he has ever felt. The patient was later diagnosed with lateral epicondylosis ( Tennis Elbow ) with a myofasciopathy ( muscle weakness ) of the extensor carpi radialis brevis (forearm muscle). He was treated six times over two weeks with Active Release Technique® (ART) to the affected muscles. After the first treatment the patient reported to feel 80% better, and at the time of discharge there was complete resolution of his symptoms (VAS 0/10 with no pain provocation on examination). The patient returned to playing tennis and at one- and two-month follow-ups he had no pain.²

Manual Therapy
There are multiple techniques and brands of tools that have been created to perform Soft Tissue Manipulation and Myofascial Release Therapies. This type of manual therapy utilizes specific instruments to break down scarred tissues, loosen up muscular knots and aid in alleviating painful areas of the body, while increasing circulation to promote healthy healing. Graston Technique is likely the most well know of these techniques.

Flat Feet
Hammertoes
A supination rotation means that the back of the foot is not rotating inward enough to absorb the complete impact of a step. This can cause conditions such as Plantar Fasciitis, Hammertoes, pain in the Achilles tendon, pain in knee and hip joints and ankle sprains.
Plantar Fasciitis
A Pronation rotation is when the foot rolls inward and it can look like a person has flat feet when standing still because of how their feet rolls inward. Extreme pronation can cause conditions such as Plantar Fasciitis, shin splints, and Achilles tendon pain.
