Your Go-To Clinic for Quality Chiropractic Care in Shreveport, LA
We specialize in Active Release Techniques (ART) which is the gold standard of soft tissue treatments.
Active Release Techniques (ART) is a breakthrough in the treatment of injury and provides permanent pain relief. ART can help you possibly avoid surgery. When you injure yourself your body tries to support itself by laying down scar tissue. This makes the area very tender and tight.
At Bates Chiropractic and Sports Therapy, we take care to provide our patients high quality new services personalized for their unique needs. Our staff members are professional, courteous and efficient. We treat patients of all ages! The Shreveport office offers all of the convenience you will need as we are a state of the art facility in a great location!
