Like the hand inside a sock puppet, the spine supports the body's every motion and keeps it from collapsing into a formless sack of cotton and googly eyes. Maintain your vertebral integrity with today's Groupon: for $60, you get chiropractic services at Optimal Wellness Family Chiropractic in Royal Oak (up to a $160 total value). New patients get a new-patient exam (a $55 value) and three adjustments (a $35 value each); existing patients get four adjustments.

Optimal Wellness Family Chiropractic’s savvy spine specialists, including Doctor of Chiropractic Michaella Walter, who was featured on Examiner.com, and Doctor of Chiropractic Jennifer Boechler tend to a wide range of ailments by mitigating subluxations in the spine that may hinder the nervous system and overall well-being. The doors at Optimal Wellness Family Chiropractic are wide open to every type of humanoid, including pregnant women and wee ones, whose complaints of colic, earaches, and allergic reactions may lessen with treatment.

New patients begin with a thorough examination, during which the chiropractor reviews health history and lifestyle, checks reflexes, develops a treatment plan, and tests the patient’s ability to convey “pretzel” during charades. Afterward, one of the seasoned staffers will perform alignments to straighten skeletons, treating musculoskeletal complaints as well as aiming to prevent disks from slipping due to athletic activity or mislaid banana peels in the spine.
