Dr. Svihlik worked with Dr. Leahy as part of the first "official" chiropractic team for the Ironman Hawaiian Triathlon Championships in 1992. He has studied and practiced ART in his office ever since.
Dr. Svihlik's collegiate athletic background, along with his 34 years of experience in the conservative treatment of athletes at all levels, has provided him with a unique clinical insight necessary for effective athletic care. This doctor understands your training needs for rapid and early return to competition.  


ACTIVE  RECOVERY  STRATEGY   is  emphasized  at  this  office.


This practice focuses on INJURY CARE AND PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT through the use of the most up to date manual and rehabilitation methods.


Manipulation can be used to restore optimal joint function in conjunction with ACTIVE RELEASE TECHNIQUE (ART) to restore normal soft tissue function. Low-tech equipment and therapeutic exercises are prescribed to complete the recovery process.

Dr. Svihlik strongly advocates patient involvement/compliance in their rehabilitative recovery.
Recommendation of sports-specific exercises will always serve the athlete in their longevity, success and enjoyment of their chosen sport.
