Discover Wellness & Rehab of Elmwood

Discover Wellness & Rehab of Elmwood is a state of the art rehab facility specializing in spinal rehabilitation, disc rejuvenation, and correction of postural distortions. Our purpose is to help you see life-changing differences in your health and performance.

After my clinics were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, I invested lots of time and money researching the best and most effective new treatment methods to create a clinic that would help patients the most, and be most fulfilling for me as a doctor. Spinal Rejuvenation Therapy, Pettibon Spinal Correction Therapy, Brain-Based Therapy, and the ATM2 are the things that I was looking for, and continue to impress me every day in practice. I look forward to sharing them with you and your family.

The clinic address is 5608 Citrus Blvd., Ste I, Harahan, LA 70123. It is in the Citrus Palms Shopping Center, across from the Coca Cola plant. You can reach us by telephone at 504.818.3800,
