Dr. Allen D. Van Scoyk believes chiropractic care is centered on finding the root cause of a patient’s symptoms. In the vast majority of patients, multiple structures become damaged through the activities of everyday life and must be treated accordingly. Dr. Van Scoyk sees each patient as unique, thoroughly evaluating their medical history and their specific challenges in order to recommend the best course of treatment.
Dr. Van Scoyk focuses on the patient’s nervous system, as it either directly or indirectly controls every cell in the human body. When the nervous system is altered, repercussions manifest themselves and prevent normal body function. A visit with Dr. Van Scoyk will help a patient identify what triggers their symptoms, provide a course of treatment to restore proper function, and chart prevention methods to prevent further damage to the body.
Prior to joining the Chiropractic Company, Dr. Van Scoyk spent time in Hungary working at an athletic college, where he assisted patients ranging from Olympic athletes to underprivileged citizens of all ages. Although he enjoys working with athletic injuries, he also emphasizes the benefit of chiropractic care with health problems, not usually associated with chiropractic care, including: chronic headaches, carpal tunnel, and extremity injuries like to those ankles, knees and wrists.
