Local Care That Understands Plantation, FL
Many Plantation residents work long hours in nearby Fort Lauderdale or commute to Coral Springs. Add in active family lives, time spent at Plantation Central Park or Jacaranda Golf Club, and it’s no surprise why spinal health is often neglected until pain shows up. That’s where we come in.
Many of our Plantation patients come to us after years of dealing with unresolved nerve issues, migraines, or postural discomfort. Others are looking for relief from pregnancy-related pain or sports injuries that just won’t heal. They come because quick fixes haven’t worked, and stay because NUCCA does.
Here are some of the most common reasons Plantation patients come to see us:
- Lingering pain from car accidents or sports injuries
- Postural fatigue and stiffness from sitting or commuting
- Unexplained symptoms like vertigo or brain fog
- Pregnancy-related pelvic imbalance and sciatica
- Children with sleep issues or frequent infections
What Makes NUCCA So Different?
NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association) is a specialized, gentle form of chiropractic care that focuses on correcting misalignments in the upper cervical spine, specifically the atlas (C1 vertebra). When this area is even slightly off, it can distort the entire spine and compromise your nervous system.
Our adjustments are so gentle, they often feel like a light touch behind the ear, yet they create measurable, lasting change throughout the body. That’s why people from all over South Florida travel to our clinic when nothing else has worked.
Here’s how NUCCA stands apart:
| NUCCA Chiropractic | Traditional Chiropractic |
|---|---|
| Precise, calculated spinal corrections | Manual force and twisting adjustments |
| No cracking, popping, or discomfort | May cause post-adjustment soreness |
| Focused on long-term structural balance | Often focused on short-term symptom relief |
| Fewer corrections needed over time | Frequent visits often required |
Personalized Treatment for Your Lifestyle
We’re not a one-size-fits-all clinic. Whether your kid feels stiff after playing at Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park, you’re a new parent in Plantation Acres, or a tennis regular at the Frank Veltri Tennis Center, we tailor our care to fit your health goals.
When you come to Friends & Family Spinal Care, you can expect:
| One-on-one consultations |

Specialty Care for Pregnancy, Pediatrics & Athletes
We provide gentle, targeted care for some of the most vulnerable and active members of the Plantation community.
Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy
Expecting moms often visit us for relief from common pregnancy discomforts like lower back pain, sciatica, and pelvic imbalance. NUCCA chiropractic care is incredibly safe and can help create the optimal conditions for a smoother delivery by supporting proper baby positioning and reducing nervous system stress.
Pediatric Chiropractic
Even infants and toddlers can experience spinal misalignments from birth trauma to falls during growth. Our pediatric patients often benefit from improved sleep, fewer ear infections, better digestion, and enhanced brain-body communication.
Parents love how safe and gentle our adjustments are, which can be compared to just the pressure of a fingertip.
Sports Chiropractic for Active Lifestyles
Student athletes, weekend golfers, and everyday movers alike rely on our sports chiropractic care to train harder and recover smarter. Many locals who frequent Plantation Central Park turn to us to feel stronger and more confident in their bodies.
