Dr. Craig Schulman explains how modern chiropractic care has evolved beyond outdated stereotypes and what today’s evidence-based treatments can do for you.
Discover how your spine affects digestion. Dr. Craig Schulman explains the surprising nervous system connection between chiropractic care and gut health.
We often recommend targeted exercises to strengthen your core and stabilize your spine because a strong, supported lower back is less likely to get injured again.
The earlier you seek care for frozen shoulder, the better your outcome. If you’re starting to notice reduced mobility or shoulder pain that’s not going away, don’t wait. A personalized care plan can make a huge difference in speeding up your recovery.
Through regular chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue work, and functional movement assessments, we can catch small issues before they become big problems. We also give you strategies to strengthen, stabilize, and protect your body long-term.
If you’re dealing with chronic headaches, facial pain, or jaw discomfort, don’t overlook the role of alignment and muscle tension. Chiropractic care may be the missing piece that brings relief.
Many of my patients say they feel “tight” or “creaky” when the weather changes. This is especially common in areas where there’s already some wear-and-tear—like old injuries or arthritis.
And if your knees ache after long periods of sitting or standing? It might be a sign your joints aren’t moving the way they should be. Mobility work paired with chiropractic care can help restore that lost range of motion.
Tech neck isn’t just annoying — over time, it can lead to poor posture, spinal misalignments, nerve irritation, and even early degeneration in the cervical spine.
Now, to be clear, chiropractic isn’t a cure for colds or the flu. But what we do focus on is the nervous system — and that’s the same system that communicates with your immune system. When your spine is out of alignment, it can interfere with nerve signals that help regulate immune function.
Of course, not every baby will need chiropractic care, and that’s why we always start with a careful assessment. At Chiropractic Fitness, we specialize in age-appropriate care for even the tiniest patients.
When the spine is out of alignment — what we call a subluxation — it can put pressure on those nerves, leading to pain, stiffness, or even problems in areas you wouldn’t immediately connect to your spine, like digestion or breathing.
We see this all the time at Chiropractic Fitness — patients who commit to regular maintenance care often experience far fewer flare-ups and live more active, pain-free lives.
The truth? Chiropractic care is incredibly safe — especially when it’s performed by trained, licensed professionals like the ones here at Chiropractic Fitness.
One of the biggest benefits of spinal decompression is that it treats the root cause of the pain rather than just masking symptoms. Instead of relying on medications or rushing into surgery, spinal decompression offers a natural, effective option for healing.
When you’re stressed, your body releases hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, preparing you for a ‘fight or flight’ response. While this is useful in short bursts, chronic stress keeps these hormones elevated, which can lead to issues like anxiety, fatigue, and even physical pain.
Body alignment refers to how your head, shoulders, spine, hips, knees, and ankles relate and line up with each other. Proper alignment means that your body is well-balanced, with minimal strain on your muscles, ligaments, and joints.
I came in with a reversed cervical curve and Dr. Schulman was able to completely fix it. He uses different techniques than just the basic readjustments that most chiropractors do, so he actually fixes problems long term.
Mary the receptionist is also so sweet and welcoming. Always brightens my day to see her!
I’m so glad I came here! 🙌 Everyone made me feel like they genuinely cared about my health and getting me better. I had never had X-rays done on my back before, and being able to actually see what was going on and understand that there were ways to improve it made me feel much more at ease. I really appreciate the doctor for explaining everything, giving me stretches to work on at home, and providing adjustments that have been helpful. I’m definitely coming back!
I highly recommend Dr. Schulman! He is personable, knowledgeable, and professional. I went from having neck and back pain almost every day to having no pain at all. I also continued seeing him throughout my pregnancy, and he was always thoughtful about accommodating me and adjusting care as needed. Sheila and Mary at the front are so sweet and welcoming as well. I’m very appreciative of the care and kindness I’ve received here!
I came into Dr. Schulman's office with severe sciatica pain, heel pain on right, and such a tight neck that I couldn't sleep at night from throbbing aches and pains. Now that I've been seeing Dr. Schulman for 3 months now, I'm running with my dogs again, and getting back into the gym without any back or neck pain. Best decision I ever made for self care! Highly recommend!
I have endured an 18 year headache due to a car accident. I’ve visited multiple Chiropractors over the years with no change to my issue. I’m now seeing there is light at the end of this dark tunnel. The care that I am receiving is unmatched. I no longer have a constant headache. I recommend coming here for Chiropractic care if you desire to get better.
I found Dr. Schumann at the Taste of Charlotte a few weeks back, and it has completely turned everything around for the better. I have had chronic pain in my low back, hip, leg, and groin since November of 2025 (~7 months unresolved). I went to orthopedic doctors, physiologists, physical therapists and more in that time frame — no one was able to give me a concrete or definite source of my pain — if anything, I was thrown around a million different diagnoses and treatments. I’m a healthy, active 26 y/o and had no prior injury. Very quickly (when I say fast, I mean with scans evaluated during our FIRST consult) Dr. Schumann was able to identify that I’ve had a pinched nerve at my S1. I’ve been following his plan for the last two weeks and have already felt relief that I completely forgot exists. I can proudly say that I am no longer in chronic pain, while I experience minimal flares as we work to fully resolve the issue. I plan to continue treatment until my spine is realigned. Whether you’re in need of immediate relief, long term relief, or someone that will affirm you are not crazy and there is a source to your pain — Chiropractic Fitness is the place to go (and Dr. Schulman’s team is absolutely phenomenal and so helpful).
