Chiropractic Services
Suffering from back, neck, muscle, or joint pain? The Laurel Health Centers have you covered! We believe in safe, expert chiropractic care for all. In addition to the back and neck strain caused by prolonged sitting in office jobs, rural communities like ours also have many jobs involving physical labor in factories, construction, farms, landscaping, and auto body shops carrying a greater risk for back and joint injuries. Chiropractic care plays a key role in pain management and the rehabilitation of those injuries, but cost is often a barrier to care, as many private chiropractors cannot accept a wide selection of insurances. The Laurel Health Centers seek to remove cost barriers by offering high-quality chiropractic care to all patients, regardless of their ability to pay.
As federally qualified health centers, we accept all major commercial insurances as well as Medical Assistance, Medicare, and sliding fee programs for uninsured and underinsured patients. Our expert chiropractors Sarah Taylor, DC and Steven Heffner, DC work in tandem with our primary care, sports medicine, and rehabilitation teams to safely treat and improve pain, inflammation, mobility, posture, and range of motion.
The Laurel Health Centers provide comprehensive chiropractic care to patients of all ages at our Laurel Health & Wellness Center, 40 W Wellsboro St. in Mansfield, and Elkland Laurel Health Center, 103 Forestview Drive in Elkland.
No referral is needed. To make an appointment, call 570-662-1974 (Mansfield) or 814-258-5117 (Elkland).
Dr. Sarah Taylor is a Troy native and is passionate about giving back to and practicing in the same rural communities that supported her growing up. She credits her own battle with injuries as a young athlete for drawing her to healthcare, knowing firsthand what it's like to rehabilitate and prevent future reinjury. She specializes in managing chronic pain, maintaining joint health, and improving mobility.
She earned her Bachelor of Science in kinesiology from Penn State University in State College, PA and her Doctor of Chiropractic degree (DC) from New York Chiropractic College in Seneca Falls, NY.
Dr. Taylor sees patients at the Laurel Health & Wellness Center in Mansfield (40 West Wellsboro St.). To make an appointment with Dr. Taylor, call 570-662-1974.
Dr. Steven Heffner has 35 years of work rehabilitation and chiropractic care experience to address and improve mobility issues, chronic pain, and joint health. First drawn to chiropractic care after its role in rehabilitating a baseball injury in his youth, Dr. Heffner is passionate about ensuring all patients have access to high-quality chiropractic care, especially in rural areas like Tioga County.
Dr. Heffner received his bachelor’s degree from Mansfield University, completed post-graduate studies at Penn State University in State College, PA, and earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree (DC) from Life Chiropractic College in Marietta, Georgia. He specializes in the McKenzie Method® of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT), an acclaimed assessment and treatment program that addresses a wide range of back, neck, and limb issues.
To make an appointment with Dr. Heffner, call 570-662-1974 (Mansfield) or 814-258-5117 (Elkland).
