What Our Patients Are Saying About Their Experience with The Grice Chiropractic Knee Injury Protocol.
AMAZING CARE
I went there a few years ago and then recently returned and they actually remembered my name, details about me personally.. I just felt so welcomed. I always feel better and am able to go in just every now and then to get maintenance adjustments and they work with me well on that. The office is very clean and nice. I love their values as well. I’ll never go anywhere else.
