What is a Chiropractor?
Chiropractors like Dr. Haines at Absolute Health Chiropractic in Gainesville, FL are trained, professional providers of complementary and alternative medicine. Chiropractic medicine has been around for over 100 years and offers completely natural pain management and mobility improvement.
Dr. Haines holds an undergraduate Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Florida and a postgraduate Doctorate of Chiropractic from Sherman College. Dr. Haines is fully licensed as a doctor of chiropractic medicine in the state of Florida and has practiced in Gainesville since 2005.
Using proven chiropractic techniques, Dr. Haines performs chiropractic adjustments to properly realign the body, relieving pain and restoring function. Whether your pain is caused by injury, arthritis or other disease, the treatments provided by Dr. Haines can shorten healing time, prevent future problems and maintain your health and well-being.
What is a Chiropractic Adjustment?
Chiropractic adjustments are physical treatments designed to fix subluxations, or poor positioning of the joints. Although chiropractic focuses on the spine, subluxations can appear in any joint, not just between the vertebrae. A subluxation is caused by both external injury and regular, normal movement.
By applying precise, but gentle, pressure to a subluxed area, Dr. Haines brings the bones back into proper alignment. This restores joint function and prevents further, more pronounced subluxations. Even without an injury, adjustments should be done regularly to ensure that the spine and other areas are always in correct alignment.

What Patients Are Saying
“Just one treatment from Dr. Rick Haines at Absolute Health Chiropractic has done more to help relieve my lower back pain than all the adjustments from four other chiropractors that I’ve received treatments from during the past six months!… I travelled to Gainesville to receive the help I needed and am so glad I did, because now I feel that I have my life back, and it feels so good!!” ~ Jo Ann Davis, Gainesville, FL
Before beginning care at AHC, I had constant back and hip pain as well as migraines. Under the care of Dr. Haines my pain is under control and requires no more pain meds! I drive over an hour to get to AHC, however the extremely helpful staff and excellent pain relief make it worth the drive. Thank you AHC!! ~ Vera K., Live Oak, FL
My pain was an 8 when I came in. In two weeks a 1. Enough said. ~ B. Getts, Gainesville, FL
I actually went into Dr. Haines office for a massage, and then decided to get a routine adjustment. I already had a chiropractor in town, but I thought since I was in the office I’d get adjusted. I told him I suffered from vertigo and dizzy spells, he then took an xray and adjusted me. I couldn’t believe it! This is the single best thing that I have ever done for my vertigo! ~ Rose W. , Gainesville, FL
Before starting my treatment, I had pain from migraines that were agonizing and debilitating. After care, I am now free of pain and haven’t had a migraine in months. Visiting Absolute Health Chiropractic was a God send for me! ~ Selma G.
When I started, I didn’t much believe much in the value of chiropractic. I was wrong!! ~ Zev W. , M.D.
