Jack Walker, D.C.
Chiropractor
In Delray Beach, you’ll find Dr. Jack Walker’s chiropractic office, a space that blends tradition with innovation. As the founder of SFL Chiropractic, Dr. Walker has a simple request for his fellow Floridians: give chiropractic care a chance. You may love it.
A South Florida native, Dr. Walker earned his Doctor of Chiropractic and Master of Science in Sport Health Science degrees from Life University.
“I absolutely do all the old school ways of adjusting; it’s a good foundation of chiropractic and that’s how it will stay,” he explains. “However, I think all the new modern technology is important to incorporate.”
He offers treatments like: Piezowave Therapy, which uses sound waves to stimulate the body and reach deeper than a traditional heating pad; PEMF therapy, which stimulates circulation and Tecar therapy, which expedites injury recovery. Dr. Walker also utilizes a bioscan system, a form of biofeedback technology that measures how the body responds to certain stimuli and brings those responses back into balance.
He strongly believes in healthcare collaboration. “We should all be working together to help people: doctors, physical therapists, massage therapists and chiropractors. It needs to be a combined effort when it comes to pain management.”
Speaking of combined efforts, Dr. Walker currently runs his office as a “one-stop shop,” but hopes to expand by bringing in a physical therapist, massage therapist or acupuncturist, to further support patients via a more robust approach to patient care.
He acknowledges the skepticism surrounding his field. “But you’ll notice most of them have never even been to a chiropractor,” he points out. Rewardingly, many skeptical patients tell Dr. Walker they feel much better after just a few sessions.
One patient from Canada even told Dr. Walker she wished she could bring him home, since she hasn’t found the same healing modalities there. Thorough healthcare research is important to Dr. Walker. “I post studies on my website for patients to review the results behind the technology we’re using — rather than simply taking my word for it.”
