Disc Conditions

The majority of painful spinal conditions that are chronic are the result of prior injuries which healed poorly causing accidental ageing of the discs and joints at the old injury site. Chiropractic care has been shown to address these poorly healed areas of accelerated degeneration by treating the pain and then rehabilitating the old injured areas for pain management and in many cases to arrest the advance of accelerated aging.

Accident

Davis Chiropractic has over 40 years of experience in successfully treating patients who have been injured in auto accidents. We offer onsite X-ray, onsite rehabilitation, and onsite physiotherapy. If you were not at fault and do not have medical payments on your car insurance policy, we will accept most attorney liens so that you can start care right away.

Fibromyalgia

Davis Chiropractic accepts Fibromyalgia patients. If you have Fibromyalgia, you are probably aware that this is a condition that involves your nervous system. Chiropractic and Cold Laser Therapy have been shown to be effective in the pain management of Fibromyalgia. While there is no cure, chiropractic and cold laser therapy have the potential to dramatically increase your quality of life. Fibromyalgia patients are accepted on a case-by-case basis and if we cannot accept your case, there is no fee for your consultation.

Dr. Guy Karcher

Dr. Guy has been practicing the art and science of chiropractic since 1982. He is most proud of being a father of six and grandfather of ten. Most recently, Dr. Karcher practiced in Sylva, North Carolina, but "Dr. Guy" practiced here in Reno for the better part of the 80s and 90s.

As a good friend of Dr. Davis for 37 years, Dr. Guy is excited to be practicing again in Truckee Meadows. As a two-sport collegiate athlete, Dr. Guy has a special interest in sports injury as well as spinal trauma from an auto injury. He is an avid fan of the University of Nevada sports, and a super fan of UNR's Boxing and Football teams. He likes hiking, Nevada history, and quality time with his family and friends.
