Patient Reviews
Treatments Provided
Chiropractic Adjustments
Adjustments remove restrictions from the joints in your spine. Increased mobility can provide pain relief, improve neurological function, and expand range of motion.
Muscle Release
Muscle Release is used to find and remove soft tissue disorders. Elasticity can be improved in muscular trigger points while adhesions are released from the fascia.
DNS Rehab
We are trained in Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), a technique used to stabilize the spine, joints, and core. This improves muscle recruitment and strength.
Dynamic Cupping
Cupping enhances blood flow and speeds up recovery. Our cupping technique incorporates movement for maximum muscle and myofascial mobility benefits.
Scraping Technique (IASTM)
Using a specialized tool to apply controlled pressure and friction to the skin, scraping can help break down scar tissue, alleviate pain, and promote faster healing.
Functional Rehab
Injuries recover faster, stronger, and properly with rehab. We hand-select exercises and stretches to improve your body's movement patterns and function.

Dr. Austin Conn
Dr. Austin understands athletes. After being a three-sport athlete in high school, he continued to play basketball at Lake Forest College where he earned his Bachelor's Degree. He wouldn't have been able to stay in the game without treatment from his father, who is also a Chiropractor. Now, Dr. Austin wants to provide that same care for others. His passion for sports and wellness brought him to Life University, where he earned his degree as a Doctor of Chiropractic. He has furthered his education by attending numerous soft tissue and sports rehab seminars, as well as becoming a referral Doctor for the Motion Palpation Institute. Dr. Austin believes that all Tampa residents can benefit from Sports Chiropractic.
