about our office

TLC means just that “Tender Loving Care” for our patients, they are treated like family members. Dr. Barbara has created a “hands on” healing environment- a “sanctuary for the soul.” Health is the main priority at TLC and we pride ourselves on teaching the importance of spinal healthcare. Life changing Wellness Opportunity Workshops, which are a public service for the community are given on the second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 7:30 P.M. Dr. Barbara has produced her own video on health awareness, which has aired on the public information television networks in her community. TLC is an official Community Children’s Chiropractic Information Center and Backpack Safety Center. Dr.Barbara has served on the Board of Directors for the Howell Chamber of Commerce and is also part of her districts School Improvement Team. Dr. Barbara hosts a Patient Appreciation Day in February every year in which the patients fees are waived and donations are payable to the Oakhaven Children’s Chiropractic Center. She volunteered her Chiropractic services at the WTC disaster site. Every year in November, TLC collects winter jackets and food for the homeless and in December, toys for tots for the underprivileged children. On Saturdays, you can always have a complimentary breakfast of bagels, coffee and juice, and on occasion you can experience a free 10 min. chair massage with your adjustment.

TLC Family Chiropractic is a wellness practice from which the whole family can benefit. Most patients of TLC are symptom-free and utilize chiropractic care to maintain their health.

Doctors of TLC treat a condition of the spine and nervous system referred to as subluxation. Subluxation is defined as nerve pressure from misaligned and locked vertebrae. These misaligned spinal bones, which irritate and choke nerves, cause malfunction of the organs, muscles and cells of an individual.

 

Dr. Ladagona uses gentle adjusting techniques to safely restore balance and motion to “locked joints,” which then reduces nerve pressure and pain. Many people have subluxation (pinched nerves), without pain. It is similar to having clogged arteries or dental cavities without symptoms. Early detection is key for preventing degenerative joint and organ disease.

Dr. Ladagona checks babies as young as four days old for subluxation which is often caused by the birth process. If subluxation is left undetected and uncorrected, it can cause:

• A lowered state of health
• Neck Pain
• Headaches
• Lower Back Pain
• Sciatica
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Jaw Pain/TMJ Dysfunction
• Numbness & Tingling
• Ear Infections
• Mid-Back Pain
• Tight/Sore Muscles
• Chronic Fatigue
• Insomnia/Restlessness
