Comprehensive Chiropractic Services for Grass Valley & Nevada County — Precision Care for Every Stage of Recovery

Cedars Chiropractic in Grass Valley, CA delivers a full spectrum of evidence-based chiropractic services designed to address the complete range of musculoskeletal dysfunction — from acute traumatic injury to chronic degenerative conditions. Dr. Charles Antouri’s 25+ years of clinical practice have produced a service model built on one non-negotiable standard: every patient deserves a precise diagnosis, a personalized treatment protocol, and measurable clinical progress.

Patients from Grass Valley, Nevada City, Auburn, Penn Valley, Colfax, and throughout Nevada County choose Cedars Chiropractic because that standard is delivered consistently — at every visit, for every condition.

Auto Accident Injuries

Motor vehicle collisions — regardless of impact severity — generate biomechanical forces that the cervical and lumbar spine are not designed to absorb. Whiplash-associated disorders involve rapid acceleration-deceleration forces that strain anterior and posterior cervical ligaments, create facet joint capsule tears, and trigger protective muscular guarding that — if left untreated — becomes a source of chronic cervicogenic pain, headache, and restricted range of motion.
Dr. Antouri conducts a comprehensive post-accident evaluation to document injury presentation, rule out structural instability, and initiate an individualized treatment protocol addressing both the immediate tissue damage and the long-term biomechanical consequences of the collision.

Personal Injury Support

Slip and fall injuries, workplace incidents, and other personal injury events frequently produce soft tissue damage, joint sprains, and spinal compression injuries that are not immediately apparent on standard imaging — yet produce significant functional limitation and chronic pain when left unaddressed.
Dr. Antouri’s personal injury evaluation protocol establishes a clinical baseline, documents causation, and creates a comprehensive treatment record that supports both the patient’s recovery and their legal case. Cedars Chiropractic works alongside personal injury attorneys serving Grass Valley, Nevada City, Auburn, and the greater Nevada County region.

Veteran Care

As an authorized VA Community Care Provider, Cedars Chiropractic delivers specialized chiropractic care to veterans navigating the musculoskeletal consequences of military service. The cumulative physical demands of active duty — load-bearing, high-impact training, occupational exposures, and trauma — create patterns of joint degeneration, disc pathology, and chronic myofascial dysfunction that require a clinician with the experience to identify and address their underlying mechanisms.

Dr. Antouri provides veteran patients with the same level of diagnostic rigor and clinical precision applied to every patient in his practice — and coordinates directly with VA referring providers to ensure continuity of care and complete documentation.

Massage Therapy

Certified massage therapy at Cedars Chiropractic is a clinically integrated modality — not a standalone spa service. Our massage therapists are trained to address the specific myofascial dysfunction patterns associated with chiropractic conditions: trigger point referral chains, fascial adhesions limiting joint range of motion, and chronic muscular hypertonicity secondary to postural loading and neurological pain sensitization.
Massage is strategically sequenced within the treatment plan — often preceding chiropractic manipulation to maximize joint mobility and patient comfort during adjustment.

Sports Injury Rehabilitation

The biomechanical demands of sport create injury patterns distinct from occupational or degenerative presentations — acute ligament sprains, muscle-tendon junction strains, stress fractures, labral pathology, and repetitive microtrauma injuries each require a sport-specific rehabilitation approach.
Dr. Antouri’s sports injury protocol addresses the full injury-to-performance continuum: acute tissue management, structural rehabilitation, sport-specific functional restoration, and injury prevention conditioning. Athletes from throughout Nevada County — including Grass Valley, Auburn, and Nevada City — rely on Dr. Antouri’s sports rehabilitation expertise to return to competition stronger and more resilient than before injury.

Family Chiropractic Care

Cedars Chiropractic provides age-appropriate chiropractic care for every member of your family — from pediatric patients experiencing postural development concerns or sports-related strain, to adolescents managing scoliosis screening and growth-related musculoskeletal changes, to adults navigating workplace injuries and chronic pain, to seniors requiring gentle mobilization techniques that address joint degeneration and reduced bone density associated with aging.
Dr. Antouri modifies his clinical approach, technique selection, and adjustment force parameters to match the specific physiological needs of each patient — ensuring safe, effective care at every life stage. Families across Grass Valley, Nevada City, Auburn, Penn Valley, and Colfax choose Cedars Chiropractic as their trusted chiropractic home.

Preventative & Maintenance Care

The most effective chiropractic outcome is one that never requires emergency intervention. Preventive and maintenance care at Cedars Chiropractic is a proactive spinal health strategy — identifying and correcting minor vertebral restrictions, postural deviations, and muscular imbalances before they progress to pain, disc pathology, or nerve compromise.
Regular maintenance adjustments maintain the spinal alignment achieved during active treatment, reduce the cumulative mechanical loading that accelerates intervertebral disc degeneration, and support the neurological communication pathways that underpin overall systemic health.

Functional Medicine

Musculoskeletal dysfunction rarely exists in isolation. Systemic inflammatory states driven by nutritional deficiencies, gut dysbiosis, chronic stress, and hormonal imbalance directly affect tissue healing capacity, pain sensitization thresholds, and the body’s response to chiropractic intervention.
Dr. Antouri’s functional medicine approach identifies these upstream drivers — evaluating dietary patterns, inflammatory markers, sleep quality, and stress physiology — and constructs supportive protocols that optimize the biochemical environment in which chiropractic care operates. This integrative perspective is particularly valuable for patients with chronic pain, autoimmune-mediated musculoskeletal conditions, or complex presentations that have been inadequately addressed by conventional medical management.

Every service at Cedars Chiropractic is grounded in clinical evidence, guided by diagnostic precision, and delivered with the kind of patient-specific attention that 25+ years of practice produces. Whether you are a new patient dealing with an acute injury or a long-standing patient managing a complex chronic condition, you will receive the same standard of expert, individualized care.
