Veterans

Dr. Jimenez Veterans Chiropractic, Physical Rehabilitation, and Fitness Team. Our valued veterans deserve the best care to maintain their optimal health. Many of these individuals experienced injuries or may have developed medical conditions as a result of their military service. Through Veterans Affairs (VA) and other services available, a majority of individuals can be eligible to receive the necessary health evaluations and treatments for their prior or current symptoms of discomfort.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine, or CAM, has been favored by many active-duty members and veterans alike. A variety of treatment options are being used at a much higher rate by troops for stress management and for musculoskeletal injuries than their civilian counterparts.

Chiropractic care has been frequently offered through the military health system for about a decade, encouraging its use for many troops. Dr. Alex Jimenez’s collection of articles covers a variety of medical options, as well as, offering chiropractic insight on injuries and conditions affecting the well-being of many individuals.
