A new way to heal.

Gently.

I unleash your healing potential by applying the combined philosophy, art and science of BIO CRANIAL THERAPY and CHIROPRACTIC. This new healing approach is getting remarkable results, gently freeing patients from past problems as well as current ones. It’s ideal for patients who not only need relief from troubling symptoms of pain or ill health but also want to maximize their performance and to experience lives full of energy, achievement and joy.

Balance body, mind and spirit and you will become more vibrantly alive.

Healing the root cause of your problems.

When you receive BIO CRANIAL THERAPY, you might think I’m simply massaging your head and neck. But something much more profound is happening.

While you lay comfortably, I place my hands on the back of your head and begin to gently yet firmly stretch your upper neck muscles. This unwinds core tension throughout your nervous system, addressing stress and misalignment in your head, spine and even pelvis. Your body changes from a state of contraction to a state of relaxation and healing.

It’s been called a three-minute miracle.

Your body is self-healing, self-regulating and always striving for balance and homeostasis. Yet almost all of us are compromised from birth. Anatomical over-contraction forms deep stress patterns making us candidates for spinal and other acute and chronic health problems. Bio Cranial Therapy unlocks those patterns and helps your body heal itself from within.

Gentle yet powerful, this universally needed therapy addresses the root cause of your health problems and can maximize the potential of all systems and components of your body, optimizing your energy, clarity, and co-ordination skills while reducing your susceptibility to illness and injury in the future.

Freeing your body’s miraculous healing power.

CHIROPRACTIC is the most popular drug-free, surgery-free health care system in the world.

It addresses three types of problems in the nervous system: physical trauma, mental/emotional stress, and environmental toxins.

Your nervous system touches each and every aspect of your body. It is a vast communications system organizing your billions of parts into a healthy, adapting, living being. Chiropractic is the healing art, science and philosophy assisting this process. It promotes your natural healing ability - your inner healer - to function at its best.

That’s why nearly every disorder responds positively to chiropractic, including pain, immune system problems, emotional issues and myriad others. People also visit chiropractors to gain energy, think more clearly and resist disease.

When Bio Cranial Therapy is added to Chiropractic care, it’s the perfect complement.

my story

My passion for chiropractic began when I was treated by a chiropractor for constant fatigue, digestive problems and an injured shoulder. I began to see health and healing in a whole new light. Then I attended a chiropractic lecture discussing nutrition, breathing techniques and yoga. These two events were life changing and inspired me to set off on a path of serving and helping others. 

I graduated from Logan College of Chiropractic in 1988 and have been in practice ever since. I also teach anatomy, physiology and other workshops on chiropractic, healing, and the importance of good nutrition and exercise for health and vitality.

In 1999 I began my training and study of bio cranial therapy. This opened a new doorway to healing. I now help clients break through old stress patterns: physical, mental, emotional and chemical. I combine chiropractic and bio cranial therapies to bring my clients a full spectrum of healing, from symptom to cause.

your stories

The following testimonials will give you an idea of how patients value our relationships. You can also find out how patients rate me by going to healthgrades.com and wellness. com. 

"I've been to many chiropractors, D.O.s and M.D.s. None has measured up to Dr. Bott in terms of seeing the whole person and offering a broad spectrum of solutions that actually work. I give him five stars for helping me with weight loss, fitness, back pain and even managing diabetes. And he hasn't hesitated to involve other health care providers when that made sense."
- Paul

"He’s very personable and I feel like I can talk to him about whatever is going on in my life.  He is always kind and funny and takes care of what’s going on with me and I always feel better when I leave." 
- Sophia, age 12

"My husband, daughter and I have been seeing Dr. Bott for 8 years and we are so grateful for the incredible care we have received. He is not your traditional chiropractor who focuses on manual adjustment. He incorporates various modalities to guide each session and the positive results are usually felt over an extended period of time, not just the day of the visit. He sees each of us as an individual, taking time to listen to our stories – verbally, physically, emotionally, and energetically." 
- Catherine

“John is a truly gifted healer, suitable for long-term chiropractic clients and first-timers alike. His gentle, intuitive approach leads him directly to the areas of concern and he is adept at finding the best way to guide your body (and mind) back to health.” 
- Nancy

"John has helped me to understand my body and its tendencies.  He’s taught me how to pay attention to what it’s telling me and given me tools (both physical and mental) that help me to keep recurring aches and pains to a minimum and sometimes avoid them altogether."
- Doug
