Services Offered at Graceful Pompano Beach Chiropractic
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care addresses pain and restricted movement by focusing on the spine and its effect on the nervous system. Many common conditions trace back to joint restriction or misalignment. Dr. Michael Cohen and Dr. Susan Lee begin with a detailed evaluation to determine the cause before recommending treatment. Adjustments are used to restore proper joint movement, often paired with stretching or supporting exercises depending on the condition. Some patients seek care for a specific injury, while others continue with regular visits to maintain movement and function over time. Learn more about Chiropractic Care →
Prenatal Care
Pregnancy places additional strain on the spine and pelvis as the body adjusts to changing weight distribution and posture. If this strain is not addressed, discomfort in the lower back, hips, and pelvis will often continue or increase as pregnancy progresses. Dr. Michael Cohen evaluates spinal and pelvic alignment using techniques appropriate for pregnancy, and care is adjusted according to each stage. Gentle chiropractic adjustments are used to reduce misalignment and ease pressure on the surrounding muscles and joints. Positioning during treatment is modified to ensure comfort and safety throughout each trimester. Many patients report improved comfort and mobility as pregnancy progresses with continued care.

Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Children’s spines are still developing, and posture, falls, and physical activity can all place stress on the growing musculoskeletal system. If this stress goes unaddressed, it may affect posture and movement patterns as the child continues to grow. Dr. Michael Cohen conducts a gentle examination suited to the child’s age to assess spinal alignment and movement. Adjustments used in pediatric care are modified in technique and pressure to match the needs of a developing body. Treatment is designed to support proper alignment and healthy movement as the child grows. Parents are kept informed throughout the process, and care is adjusted as the child’s needs change over time. Learn more about Pediatric Chiropractic Care→
Spinal Adjustments
A spinal adjustment applies a controlled, precise force to a joint that has lost its normal range of motion. Joints in the spine can become restricted for a number of reasons, including poor posture, injury, or repetitive strain, and the surrounding muscles and nerves are often affected as a result. During treatment, Dr. Michael Cohen locates the specific joints involved and applies the adjustment directly to that area. Pressure, direction, and force are adjusted based on the joint being treated and the patient’s comfort level. In most cases, adjustments are paired with exercises intended to help the joint retain the movement gained during the session. Patients with long-standing restrictions typically require a series of visits rather than a single adjustment. Learn more about Spinal Adjustments →
Spinal Decompression
Pressure on a spinal disc or nerve is often the source of pain that does not improve with rest. Spinal decompression works by gently stretching the spine so as to provide more space between the vertebrae. This treatment is often used to relieve the pain caused by herniated discs or the compression of the discs in the neck. Prior to the treatment, Dr. Michael Cohen evaluates whether the treatment is suitable for the problem and should be used in that particular case because not all problems related to the discs can be solved with this method. The treatment is often done together with chiropractic adjustments and exercises.

Wellness Care
Not every visit to a chiropractor is tied to an active injury. At Graceful Pompano Beach Chiropractic, wellness care exists for patients who want to maintain spinal alignment and catch small issues before they turn into larger ones. Posture habits, repetitive movement at work, and general activity level all affect how well the spine holds alignment between visits. Dr. Michael Cohen schedules periodic evaluations to check joint movement and posture, adjusting the plan as a patient’s routine or activity changes. Adjustments during these visits are aimed at preserving the results from earlier treatment rather than correcting a new problem. This type of care is common among patients who have finished active treatment and want to stay ahead of recurring pain. Visit frequency depends on the individual, ranging from monthly to a few times a year. Learn more about Wellness Care →
