We address the cause, not the symptom.
Disc injuries. Neuropathy. The complex cases other care could not solve. Dr. Leonard Hayes pairs computer-guided technology with time-tested chiropractic technique to find what is actually wrong, then fix it.
Built for the cases that were told to live with it
Most patients arrive here after months or years of care that treated the symptom and missed the source. Our whole body approach starts with a longer, deeper evaluation: nothing is rushed and no stone is left unturned.
Disc Injuries
Herniated, bulging, and degenerative discs treated with a research-based, four phase protocol built around FDA-cleared spinal decompression. No injections, no surgery.
Neuropathy
Peripheral and diabetic neuropathy care that treats the nerve itself with electroanalgesia, cold laser, and nutritional support instead of masking the numbness and burning.
Complex & Autoimmune
Whole body chiropractic, neurological evaluation, and lifestyle counseling for the complicated cases: autoimmune support, chronic pain, and problems no one else could name.
Four phases. One target: the disc itself.
Developed with Disc Centers of America on research from Harvard School of Medicine, the protocol layers four FDA-cleared technologies so each one amplifies the next.
Phase 01
Spinal Decompression
Computer algorithms set the angle, tension, and pull rate for your exact spinal level, easing pressure off the injured disc.
Phase 02
Class IV Cold Laser
High-power photobiomodulation accelerates tissue repair at the cellular level while calming inflammation around the disc.
Phase 03
HakoMed Electroanalgesia
German horizontal stimulation quiets radiating nerve pain and supports peripheral nerve repair between sessions.
Phase 04
PulStar Adjusting
Computer-guided corrections with live spinal feedback. Precise, gentle, and measured: no twisting, no cracking.
Nine techniques. Thirteen technologies. One plan, built for you.
Your Chesterfield chiropractor should have more than one tool. Dr. Hayes draws on a deep bench of adjusting techniques, clinical devices, and hands-on bodywork, then combines the right ones for your case.
Adjusting Techniques
Diversified, Cox Flexion Distraction, SOT, Logan Basic, Activator, Thompson, Webster Prenatal, and cranial work. From firm and specific to feather light.
Group BClinical Technology
Decompression, PulStar, Class IV cold laser, Storz shockwave, HakoMed, traction, ultrasound, and diathermy. FDA-cleared tools, precisely applied.
Group CBodywork & Recovery
A dedicated stretch therapist, European bodywork, and licensed massage therapy that help every correction hold longer.
Dr. Hayes trained under Dr. Patrick Montgomery, a legend in the chiropractic world, and was named one of the top specialists in the US (2024) for spinal decompression and neuropathy treatment. His practice is built on a simple conviction: the body works as a whole, so treating one symptom in isolation will never resolve the root cause.
Every new patient receives a full ninety minute examination with neurological, physical, and orthopedic testing before any treatment begins. That is the exam most patients have never actually had.

I have lived with chronic pain and other issues for two and a half years. After only two visits he has taken some of the pain away. He is extremely knowledgeable, easy to talk to. I would put him at number one if I could, but all I can do is give five stars.
Our family is so grateful for Dr. Hayes. We came in with a list of issues: a rib out of place, pain in the ankles and knees, headaches, and more. Dr. Hayes took care of it all. He is our go to doctor.
My wife had been back and forth to multiple doctors and the ER about her hip. Nothing worked. Dr. Hayes examined her and adjusted her hip. After over a year and countless doctors, she is out of pain.
