Here at Johnston Chiropractic we have workshops with information regarding the services we provide, which allows a better understanding for our patients. The workshops are held by Dr. Johnston himself! See our local Peripheral Neuropathy Workshop Ad as an example.


Spinal Manipulation

Also called manual therapy, combines moving and jolting joints, massage, exercise, and physical therapy. It's designed to relieve pressure on joints, reduce inflammation, and improve nerve function. It’s often used to treat back, neck,shoulder, and headache pain.


Muscle Stimulation

Muscle Stimulation is the elicitation of muscle contraction using electric impulses. The impulses are generated by a device and delivered through electrodes on the skin in direct proximity to the muscles to be stimulated. The impulses mimic the action potential coming from the central nervous system, causing the muscles to contract.


Ultra Sound Therapy

Ultrasound is applied using a round-headed probe that is put in direct contact with the patient’s skin. It has been shown to cause increases in tissue relaxation, blood flow, and scar tissue breakdown. It can be used to help reduce local swelling and chronic inflammation, and, according to some studies, promote bone fracture healing.


Laser Therapy

Laser Therapy is a treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue and helps to accelerate the healing process. It can be used on patients who suffer from a variety of conditions in order to help eliminate pain, swelling, reduce spasms and increase functionality.


Spinal Decompression Therapy

Involves stretching of the spine, using a traction table or similar motorized device, with the goal of relieving back pain and/or leg pain.


Wellness Programs

Diet, exercise, and stretching techniques recommended by the doctor. A healthy life requires a healthy lifestyle.


Shoulder Treatment


Cold Laser Therapy


Chiropractic Care

We provide advanced spinal correction and chiropractic adjustments utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic care have chiropractors been able to provide the level of help and expertise that is available today. Many of the newest chiropractic techniques are actually safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a chiropractor who cares about utilizing the most advanced chiropractic techniques, Dr. Paul Johnston has years of training, expertise and experience in helping patients get pain relief for back pain, neck pain, headaches, and other related conditions originating from the spine. Chiropractic care under a trained professional can even be used to prevent injuries and help you achieve total health or wellness.


Corrective Exercises

At Johnston Chiropractic Clinic, we teach our patients how to perform special "blueprint" exercises which can help strengthen and correct the irregularities in their body which may be causing pain. Many of these corrective exercises can actually be performed in the comfort of your own home to help improve the effectiveness of your chiropractic care and spinal correction plan. In addition to skeletal misalignment, you may be experiencing pain that is caused by muscles and connective tissues which are out of their proper place. Other types of pain such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches are caused by muscles and tissues that are being used improperly, causing injuries over time. In each case, targeted corrective exercises and stretches from our experienced chiropractor will help you feel good while also helping your body achieve balance and health.


Lifestyle Advice

Many of our patients come to see our chiropractor to address a specific pain symptom such as back pain, neck pain or headaches. While our chiropractor will address each patient's specific condition with chiropractic care, we often find it helpful to "coach" our patients towards achieving a healthier lifestyle. For example, there may be certain activities that you should avoid or do differently to prevent yourself from unintentionally aggravating your particular health challenges. The goal of including lifestyle advice with a chiropractic care plan is to help each and every patient achieve the fulfilling and happy lifestyle they deserve, one that is full of the activities that are enjoyed most. We recognize that every single one of our patients is a whole person, and we use our expertise to help them reach total health and wellness.


Nutritional Counseling

What does nutrition have to do with chiropractic care? The goal of chiropractic care is to help patients achieve total health and balance with their body, and as part of that goal we provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices. Nutritional counseling by our experienced chiropractic health professionals can assist a patient on their return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you? Do you know how these supplements and vitamins interact with one another? At our Shreveport chiropractic clinic, we can provide each patient with a structured nutritional program that is based on their individual needs.


Spinal & Postural Screenings

There is a saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Your spinal health is no exception. Posture and spinal screenings by a trained and experienced chiropractor such as Dr. Paul Johnston can help reveal important health information, unlocking the door to improved health and well-being. In order to help the Shreveport community, we provide screenings at area malls, community events, health fairs and places of employment. Contact us today at (318) 687-9671 to arrange a screening at your event or workplace.

Testimonial

  • "My name is Carolyn Palmer and I have had pain in my lower back and problems with my knees for at least ten years now. My pain scale was an 8 on a scale of 1-10 when I first visited Dr. Johnston, it is now a 1. I have less pain, better movement, less medication, and I feel much better.."
