Why patients choose the Demko Method
A Gentler Approach
Unlike traditional chiropractic methods that rely on forceful manipulation, we use a gentle, biomechanics-focused approach tailored to your body’s natural alignment.
Whole Body Biomechanics
We treat the root of your pain — not just the symptoms — by addressing how your entire body moves, balances, and functions together.
Personalized, one-on-one care
Every visit is thorough and unhurried, built around your specific needs and goals — not a rushed, five-minute adjustment.

The Demko Method, in short
Dr. Demko's approach starts with a close look at how your muscles work together, because no muscle works alone. Using small, precise movement patterns, he stimulates the nerve signals that restore normal muscle function, then layers in simple stretching and strengthening to calm the muscles that have been compensating for your pain.
Patients are active participants in their care, which speeds recovery. Dr. Demko works alongside Nurse Practitioner Tamara and often collaborates with local physicians, pain specialists, and physical therapists.

Common questions
Is the Demko Method the same as a chiropractic adjustment?
No. Traditional adjustments use forceful, high-velocity manipulation of the spine. The Demko Method uses light-touch, precise movement patterns that work with your body's nervous system and biomechanics — no cracking or twisting involved.
How many visits does it usually take to see results?
Most patients see measurable improvement within 6 to 10 visits, with an overall success rate above 85% for restoring spinal and joint function.
What conditions can the Demko Method help with?
Back pain, sciatica, neck pain, shoulder pain (including frozen shoulder and rotator cuff injuries), knee pain, hip pain, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and other muscle or joint-related pain.
Do I need a referral to book an appointment?
With most insurances, no referral is necessary.
