3443 Penn Ave Sinking Spring PA, 19608About
Dr. Smith has been practicing Chiropractic in the Reading area since 2015, and native to Berks County area. He is a graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic, Florida. His post-graduate studies include advanced training in MRI, Auto & Personal Injury case management, Spinal Biomechanics & specializes in Sports Injury prevention. Dr. Smith's passion for his profession and healthcare is rooted from childhood memories of his mother’s suffering of constant low back pain. “I saw my family go through many struggles all because of something everyone experiences in their lifetime and is very easy to treat. I became frustrated, but didn’t realize the impact a Chiropractor from King of Prussia would have on my mother's life as well as mine. Soon, the whole family was going and I became keenly aware that this was a hidden treasure in the healthcare system that needs to be more readily available and advertised. I’m excited that my career is very rewarding and enjoy helping others, so that they can avoid the struggles an injury to the spine can have on their personal as well as family life.”

After running, my ankles get a shooting pain. Can a chiropractor help?
Depending on where specifically you are experiencing the pain in your ankle, it could be one of three things. More than likely it’s your Achilles’ tendon, which is inflamed from the run or your ankle is out of place. There are chiropractic adjustments that can be performed on the ankle to help mobilize any stuck or misaligned bones. This in turn can free up the strain on the tendon, but there are plenty of soft tissue mobilization techniques that can also help! READ MORE
I have a slight pain in my elbows and I don’t understand what is causing it. What should I do?
Depending on where in the elbow, you may have what’s called tennis or golfer’s elbow. It’s a very common muscle soreness that’s caused by repetitive use. If there is numbness going down into the fingers, this could be from a pinched ulnar nerve at the elbow. Both are really easy to treat! READ MORE
Can a chiropractor help to align my back?
The sunken in curve you’re referring to sounds like kyphoscoliosis, which is scoliosis with a kyphosis component. This is a more advanced form of scoliosis and needs to be properly managed, but chiropractics can definitely help! READ MORE

Write ReviewPatient Experience with Dr. Smith
Dr. Smith helped with my low back pain tremendously. I walked in crooked and walked out practically skipping. He explained my ailment very clearly and provided home therapies to do as well as a reasonable treatment plan. I've been to others, but I'm glad I found one that I trust.
