Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic is a natural and holistic healthcare approach that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. Our chiropractors use a variety of manual therapies, such as spinal manipulation, mobilization, and soft tissue techniques, to restore proper function and alignment to the body.

What Is Chiropractic Care?

Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, drug-free approach to healthcare that emphasizes the importance of the relationship between the spine and the nervous system. The spine protects the spinal cord, which is the main pathway for transmitting messages between the brain and the rest of the body. If the spine is misaligned, it can interfere with the function of the nervous system, leading to a range of symptoms and conditions, such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and many more.

 

Chiropractic care involves the use of manual therapies to adjust and manipulate the spine and other joints in the body, such as the shoulders, hips, knees, and ankles. These manual therapies aim to restore proper alignment and function to the joints, reduce pain and inflammation, improve range of motion, and promote overall health and wellness.

The best clinic to get your custom orthotics! I’m a nurse and work countless hours on my feet and I’ve been wearing the orthotics from this location for a good while now and they make all the difference.

I’ve had shoulder pain since a car accident I experienced a few years ago and I had gone to physio for a while until I decided to stop my treatment. Recently I had been noticing that my shoulder is getting worse again so I decided to go to this clinic for some help. I am really glad I did. The physio services they offer were better than any i’ve had before and they actually provided me with the exercises to do on my own so I can keep working on the recovery of my shoulder at home. Overall im really happy and would recommend this clinic to anyone in the area.

I experienced a car accident injury about 4.5 months ago and finally have healed from it but I have remaining pain in that area. I went to this clinic looking for help with rehabilitation and I’m really happy with the service I received. Would recommend them.

I go to this clinic regularly for massage therapy and I always leave the clinic feeling refreshed. I sit constantly at work so I experience a lot of back pain but with their help I finally feel relief from the pain I was experiencing before- totally worth it.

How Does Chiropractic Care Work?

Chiropractic care works by restoring proper alignment and function to the joints of the body, especially the spine. Chiropractors use a variety of manual techniques, such as spinal manipulation, mobilization, and soft tissue therapies, to achieve this goal.

 

Spinal manipulation is the most common technique used by chiropractors. It involves the application of a controlled force to a specific joint in the spine, with the goal of restoring proper alignment and function. The force may be applied using a quick, high-velocity thrust or a slower, low-velocity movement, depending on the patient’s needs and preferences.

 

Mobilization is a gentler form of manipulation that involves the use of slow, stretching movements to mobilize the joints of the spine and other areas of the body. Soft tissue therapies, such as massage and trigger point therapy, may also be used to relieve muscle tension and promote healing.

Benefits of Chiropractic Care:

Chiropractic care offers a wide range of benefits for patients of all ages and backgrounds. Some of the most common benefits include:

Pain relief: Chiropractic care can be highly effective in reducing pain and discomfort in the back, neck, shoulders, hips, knees, and other areas of the body. It can also help relieve headaches and migraines.

 

Improved range of motion: By restoring proper alignment and function to the joints of the body, chiropractic care can help improve range of motion and flexibility, making it easier to perform everyday tasks and engage in physical activities.

 

Better posture: Poor posture can lead to a range of health problems, including back pain, neck pain, and headaches. Chiropractic care can help improve posture by correcting spinal alignment and reducing tension in the muscles of the neck and back.

 

Improved overall health and wellness: Chiropractic care is a holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the whole person, not just the symptoms of a particular condition. By promoting proper alignment and function of the body, chiropractic care can help improve overall health and wellness.

 

Enhanced performance: By improving joint mobility and reducing pain, chiropractic care can help athletes perform at their best. Many professional sports teams now employ chiropractors to help their athletes stay healthy and optimize their performance.

 

Better Sleep: Chronic pain can make it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. By relieving pain and reducing tension in the body, chiropractic care can help patients sleep more soundly.


Reduced Need for Medication: Chiropractic care can be an effective alternative to prescription pain medications, which can be addictive and have serious side effects. By addressing the underlying causes of pain, chiropractic care can help patients avoid the need for medication altogether.

What to Expect During a Chiropractic Visit

During your first chiropractic visit, the chiropractor will typically conduct a thorough physical exam, including a review of your medical history, a discussion of your symptoms and concerns, and a physical assessment of your spine and musculoskeletal system. This evaluation may include X-rays or other diagnostic tests to help the chiropractor get a better understanding of your condition.
