Welcome to Manatee Wellness Center!

MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE

Manatee Wellness Center is more than meets the eye. What makes it different? Whether by design or destiny, we have assembled a motivated staff headed by  uniquely talented doctor. Now add to that a revitalized clinic, new physical therapy and rehabilitation equipment, state-of-the-art patient education services and complete nutritional diagnostic protocols and you have one of the most successful chiropractic centers in southwest Florida.   The primary reason for that success is our credo, “Our patients first and foremost.” ManateeWellnessCenter has been helping sick people feel good for more than 2 decades. It’s simple and it works. Here’s how. Dr. Flaim  listens to your story, the history of your condition. After implementing the necessary diagnostic exams he alerts the staff to prepare and perform their individual roles. Chiropractic adjustment,  explaining insurance, trigger point release, referral to an aligned professional, neuromuscular reeducation, nutritional counseling or whatever it takes, the staff is primed and ready to rumble. You will notice it. There is an air of cooperation between staff members, a friendly feeling of support that spills over to you, our patients. We are having fun and fun is healing for everyone.  If you haven’t been in lately drop by and look around. You’ll like what you feel.

It's Your Life... Live it in Health!

7-YEAR STUDY FINDS THAT STROKES

ARE NOT BROUGHT ON BY

CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS.

The multi-national, inter-disciplinary study team concluded that people who visit a Chiropractor for neck adjustments are NO MORE LIKELY to suffer a stroke than when treated by their family physician (MD/DO) or ANY OTHER medical profession.  The type of stroke under examination is considered extremely rare, and can occur after simple neck movements such as looking towards the sky, or just looking over your shoulder while backing up a car.  This information, published in the peer-reviewed journal Spine, comes at a great time, since Chiropractors in several states have recently come under attack from special-interest groups running media and Internet campaigns suggesting that Chiropractic is dangerous and can cause strokes.  Unfortunately, those groups are spreading false information because, as the results of the long-term study showed, it is simply NOT true.
