The new Snoqualmie Ridge Chiropractic Clinic is scheduled to open the week of June 15 at the Gateway Center, next to Gateway Gas and Deli off Douglas Avenue and Snoqualmie Parkway.

“It will offer a complete approach to healing,” said Dr. Ken Lichtenwalter, CEO of Your Neighborhood Healthcare Center LLP and also co-owner of the clinic. “Our focus is on total, integrated care for the family.”

Dr. Ben Britton and Dr. Steve Gootkind join Dr. Lichtenwalter, and together will offer a wide range of techniques and therapies to meet the individual needs of patients.

“For residents of the SnoValley area who have experienced an injury to their neck, back, shoulder, knee or foot, there is an alternative,” said Britton, who lives on the Ridge with his wife and children.

“Often headaches, tingling sensations and sciatica can be attributed to skeletal misalignment,” he said. “We approach the entire body’s balance and alignment and can offer relief from acute as well as chronic conditions.”

Added to the staff of Snoqualmie Ridge Chiropractic is licensed massage therapist Julie Ann Johnson, who will be offering massage therapy on site in the state-of-the-art facility. Johnson is currently contracted with Regence Blue Shield and is working to be contract-approved by many other insurance companies.

All new patients are taken through orthopedic, neurological and chiropractic diagnostic tests so that Snoqualmie Ridge Chiropractic’s doctors can effectively and accurately analyze the areas of concern or diagnose a particular problem. If treatment is required, the clinic’s highly trained staff can make corrections.

Snoqualmie Ridge Chiropractic is an expansion of one of the area’s leading chiropractic clinics on the Issaquah Plateau, Klahanie Chiropractic, which was established in 1999. Located at 8026 Douglas Ave. S.E., Suite 102, the facility includes the most advanced technologies. The 1,400 square-foot chiropractic and massage clinic will be open Monday through Saturday.
