Meet the Restored Health Chiropractic Team
At Restored Health Chiropractic Center, we believe in whole body healing and that it is never too late (or too soon!) to prioritize your health and wellness. We individualize care for each and every one of our patients and will tailor your treatment plan to specifically meet your body’s needs. In addition to spinal manipulation, we also utilize rehabilitative therapy equipment, x-ray, massage therapy, acupuncture, and clinical nutrition to aid our patients in their journey to better health.

Israel
LMT
I was born in Mexico and moved to the United States when I was 10 years old. I have been practicing massage therapy for about 16 years, of which I’ve been in Michigan for 2. I got into massage therapy because of a long list of injuries I had, which caused me to be in pain all of the time. I wanted to learn how to help myself and once I became proficient at it, it flourished my passion to help others. It is very rewarding to help others discover the route of their pain, and help to solve their problem.

She would practice by massaging her grandparents during pretend spa sessions and even offered leg massages to her lacrosse teammates in high school.

Who We Are
Restored Health Chiropractic Mission & Vision
To provide the best individualized care to every patient, no matter where they are in their health journey.
Why the Unalome?
Traditionally, the unalome symbolizes a person's journey through life or to enlightenment. We wanted to build off of this and use it in our logo to describe a person's journey to health.
When we started the rebranding process, we envisioned an office that offered chiropractic care to individuals in every stage of their health journey. Maybe we are the first taste of alternative healthcare for somebody struggling with a chronic issue who has not been able to get answers using other routes. Or maybe we are the new chiropractic home to somebody who has seen a chiropractor for 20+ years and they are wanting to explore other therapies we offer. We want to care for everybody, no matter where you may be in the sometimes messy and not-so-straightforward journey to better health. We would be honored to serve as a part of your particular health journey.
“Wonderful chiropractor (Eric) and massage therapist (Alicia). They always listen to me. I had had some surgery and had to do modifications with my adjustments and massage, and they were more than willing to do whatever I needed. Excellent chiropractic office!”
