Why Chiropractic?
Why choose chiropractic treatment?
When you have low back pain, headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain, carpal tunnel, stress, asthma, allergies, difficulty sleeping, fatigue, menstrual cramping, muscle pain, injuries, etc. What do you usually do? Is it Advil, Allieve, Tylenol, or Ibuprophen that you reach for? Viox-(oops just recalled!) Most of us usually pop the pill for a temporary relief, until the next time. And most of the time, there usually is a next time. Right? But wouldn't it be great to actually find out what's causing the problem to begin with, and then fix that?
Symptoms are the result of having an underlying problem. By masking the symptoms with pills, this allows the problem to continue and get worse in the long run. Let's not ignore that pills have side effects too, damaging other parts of our bodies.
All functions in the body are controlled by your central nervous system. With spinal misalignments, they interfere with your nervous system. Parts of your body have dysfunction and later symptoms such as: neck pain, fatigue, digestive problems, shoulder problems, low back pain headaches, numbness and stress. Chiropractic treatment can fix these problems.
Who can chiropractic help?
Let's talk about an Adjustment or Spinal Manipulation:
How Chiropractors treat the body is with a spinal adjustment. The purpose of an adjustment is to remove nerve interference, and stop or slow the progression of spinal degeneration/osteoarthritis in its tracks. We apply a gentle, precise, thrust in a specific direction to the dysfunctional area of the spine. Chiropractors are extremely educated and skilled in this process. This adjustment can be performed in many different ways, some with the hands and some with instruments.
You can hear a popping sound like the sound of popping your knuckles. This is a normal sound which really is gas inside the joints escaping outward through the fluid and tissues which is caused by the slight shifting of spinal segments.
Chiropractic treatment is a safe, and gentle approach to correcting problems with spinal nerve interference. It works! There is no other treatment like chiropractic.
We treat everyone from infants to seniors:
Children can have spinal problems too, just look at all the falls they take, not to mention those backpacks weighing more that the actual child. The actual birthing process has been shown to cause spinal problems. Young children have trouble verbally expressing that they have any pain or headaches. You can see them rubbing their head or body part over and over. They can have continual earaches or catch colds a lot. These are signs of spinal misalignment. Really look at your child's posture. Do they have trouble sitting up straight? Is one shoulder higher than the other? There is no such thing as growing pains, otherwise everyone would have them. We all grow!
Let's not forget seniors: We evaluate ways to improve their quality of life and reduce or eliminate any pain that they might have. People with osteoporosis don't have to suffer with pain being afraid to have any treatment for fear of fracturing their bones. Safe and effective chiropractic treatment is available. Note the studies on Hormone Replacement therapy in 2003 with all the bad side effects such as a 50% increase in heart disease from using these hormones…No thanks. Chiropractic treatment can help and not hurt.
