Dr. Tom Livermore

Dr. Thomas A. Livermore

Dr. Livermore graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, IA. 

He specializes in Active Release Techniques (ART) and focuses on functional biomechanics with emphasis on soft tissue evaluation.  He has worked with a wide range of patients from Ironman triathletes to weekend warriors throughout his career and schooling.  As a former athlete, he understands the need for training at a high level and the importance of quality care.

Dr. Tony Asks some important questions of interest to Evanston residents - Chiropractor Evanston Dr. Tony Asks...

Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
If you have a fever, are you sick or healthy?
Chiropractors love asking this question because it gets to the root of the chiropractic difference. Turns out fevers, vomiting, coughing and even sneezing are all healthy responses. It means your body is working correctly. Taking medications to suppress these natural processes can actually prolong your recovery.
