Doctors of Chiropractic are licensed in the state of Indiana to treat any musculoskeletal condition. Shockwave therapy utilizes pressure waves or "shock waves" to provide relief for various musculoskeletal conditions. It offers restorative treatment, and not just pain relief. It is an acoustic wave that carries high energy to injured areas of the body.

I contacted Dr Joel Starns after my life-changing accident in 2017 when I ended up with a herniated neck disc. I should have been a quadriplegic but his laser treatments helped me manage the swelling and pain to heal quicker than normal. Dr Starns pays individual attention to all his patients, and in areas that are beyond his chiropractic services he knows many other professionals for follow up medical procedures (like neurosurgeon). Lately I tried his new HiEMT treatment to strengthen my abdominal muscles to relieve my chronic back pain from the nerve damage I suffered. Not only did it lessen my pain (I don't feel it around my stronger abdomen) but a nicely sculpted stomach is an added bonus. Thanks, Dr Starns, for saving my life!

I first met with Dr. Starns in 2009 when I was experiencing right shoulder pain originating from a shoulder separation over 30 years ago. He quickly identified the A-C joint as the source of the issues and was able to alleviate all pain within 6 weeks of adjustments. After I moved away from the area, I began to have issues with the same shoulder, three Chiropractors and an orthopedist later, Dr. Starns referred me to another chiropractor. in the Metro Detroit area. The adjustments weren't having the same effect, but that chiropractor referred me to a different orthopedist that has since found that the same A-C joint has become more difficult to mobilize 8 years later (and older). Surgery may be necesssary at this point, but Dr. Starns successfully pinpointed the problem from the get-go years ago. It's a real pleasure to find providers that take an analytical approach to patient care, and develop a network of referrals to help patients who have moved out of town. Thank you

Dr. Starnes is great! I had a really warped view on what a chiropractor should be until I came to Dr. Starnes. He had me come in a hadnfull of days over 2-3 weeks and I was cured! He is a great Dr. who knows what he's doing and is a really great guy. His mother at the front desk I think keeps him grounded as she describes him as "genius!" They are a great duo and I enjoyed my visits.
You can actually feel it working to. He will say "hey try to lift this legs as much as possible" and I would lift it and barely be able to. Then badda bing! He would do his thing, tell me to lift it again and it felt like 20 lbs had been lifted off my leg because I could smoothly lift it higher with no pain! Dr. Starnes is a miracle worker and I would highly suggest that you give him a visit if you have back pain. A lot of people dont believe in chiropractors, but he is the real deal. It is a great holistic approach to back pain that, in my case, really worked out well!
