Chiropractic Care
Living with recurring discomfort affects more than just your body—it impacts your work, your family time, and your ability to enjoy the activities you love. Whether you’re a parent keeping up with active kids, an athlete pushing your limits, or someone who simply wants to move through your day without limitation, finding relief that actually lasts matters.
At Lake Norman Chiropractic, we’ve spent more than 25 years helping people in Mooresville get back to doing what they love. Dr. Todd Abernathy and our team take the time to understand your specific situation, explain exactly what’s happening in your body, and create a personalized plan designed around your goals and lifestyle.
How We Approach Your Care
Every person who walks through our doors receives individualized attention based on their age, condition, and what they want to achieve. We never use a one-size-fits-all approach because your body and your life are unique.
Our care typically begins with modalities that address immediate discomfort—techniques like ESTIM, which uses electrical stimulation to reduce muscle tension, or intersegmental traction, a gentle rolling table that helps restore motion to the spine. These prepare your body for the next phase of care.
Once we’ve reduced initial discomfort and muscle guarding, Dr. Abernathy performs specific adjustments to restore proper motion to your joints. Following adjustments, we incorporate therapeutic exercises that strengthen supporting muscles and help stabilize your progress. This three-phase approach—prepare, adjust, strengthen—gives you the best chance at lasting results rather than temporary relief.
Conditions We Address with Chiropractic Care
Our practice helps patients dealing with a wide range of musculoskeletal issues. We work with people experiencing nerve-related discomfort, disc injuries, muscle spasms, trigger points that cause referred tension, and facet joint problems that limit movement.
Dr. Abernathy is a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician, which means he brings specialized training to treating athletic injuries and helping active individuals return to their sport or activity safely. Our certified chiropractic assistants work alongside him, delivering additional modalities including ultrasound for deep tissue healing, cold laser therapy that promotes cellular repair, spinal decompression for disc-related issues, and both myofascial release and dry needling for stubborn muscle tension.
We also have extensive experience working with veterans through our relationship with the local VA, and we provide DOT and CDL physicals for professional drivers who need to maintain their medical certification.
Tracking Your Progress Every Step Forward
We believe you should always know where you stand in your care. Before beginning care, we review what to expect, discuss any risks and benefits specific to your condition, and verify your insurance coverage so there are no surprises about costs.
Throughout your care, we track your progress through regular discussions about your comfort levels and daily activities, combined with objective tests that measure improvements in movement and function. This ongoing assessment ensures your care plan continues working for you, and we adjust our approach whenever needed to keep you moving toward your goals.
