See the site map for exact driving directions. Dr. Fiscella has been in private practice since 1977, when he first was mentored by Dr. Ken Yochum. The Wilmington Clinic has been serving patients sin

ce 1953. We utilize several alternative approaches of chiropractic -- Receptor-Tonus technique as originated by Dr. Raymond Nimmo D.C., Graston Technique, Myofascial release technique, and acupressure to focus on the soft tissues of the body (muscles, ligaments and tendons) to release muscle tension and improve body function ["MUSCLES MOVE BONES, BONES DO NOT MOVE MUSCLES"] as well as the traditional adjustment. In addition, we have a complete diagnostic and rehabilitative facility to include rehab exercise, hot/cold packs, ultrasound, cold laser, muscle stimulation, traction, spinal decompression, acupressure/acupuncture, blood+live-cell analysis, and x-ray. Speciality procedures are available for acute/chronic "sinus sufferers" as well as for those patients who suffer with "frequent colds, post-nasal drip ,allergies, etc" with the use of Endo-Nasal Technique (Sinoplasty and Pharyngeal Sweeps) and specific dietary enhancements.

Whiplash Isn’t Just About the Neck 🚗

Even low-speed car accidents can cause whiplash that affects your entire spine. Symptoms may include headaches, jaw pain, or dizziness, sometimes days or weeks later.

Chiropractic care helps restore motion, reduce inflammation, and improve recovery.

How much of your diet comes from junk food? 🍩

We all enjoy the occasional treat. However, when too much of our diet comes from ultra-processed foods, it can affect more than just our weight.

A study found that just a 10% increase in calories from processed foods raised the risk of early death by 2.7%. 🤯

It’s okay to indulge now and then. But try to keep your meals mostly fresh, whole, and balanced!

Strengthening your Trunk Postural Muscles Can Help Prevent Lower Back Pain! 🏋️‍♀️

Did you know that having a stable trunk isn't just about abs? It affects how your hips and knees move, too!

A recent study found that people at risk of lower back pain significantly improved their movement patterns after just 6 weeks of trunk stability exercises. They moved better, especially in the hips and knees, reducing their chances of developing low back pain later.

At our clinic, we can help you build a stronger foundation, improving your movements and keeping you pain-free!

💧 Hydration = Joint health + Energy boost!

As temperatures rise, getting dehydrated is easy, especially during activity. Water supports spinal discs, reduces joint stiffness, and improves focus.

Most adults should aim to drink six to eight 8-ounce glasses of water each day (48-64 oz./1.5-2 liters total) and more if you sweat or are active outdoors!

Check out our infographic for more hydration tips this season! https://bit.ly/2V0oyyU
