Can Chiropractic Help Me?

Chiropractic care enhances the life and health of millions of patients every year. How will you respond to chiropractic care? An estimate of your response will be discussed on your initial visit. Your consultation and exam help determine the level of your condition and help identify potential complicating factors.

Chiropractic works based on treatment that seeks to improve the function of your musculoskeletal system (joints, muscles, ligaments) and your nervous system. There is a vital relationship between the joints of your spine and your nervous system. A loss of proper function can lead to imbalances that produce swelling, pain, and compensation that places stress on other parts of your body. With this additional loss of function, symptoms often result: pain, numbness, burning, tingling, restricted motion, stiffness, weakness, and more. So if you are experiencing these symptoms, give us a call today to see if chiropractic can help you.

What Conditions Do Chiropractors Treat?

The focus of chiropractic is to restore function to allow your body to restore health. Therefore, chiropractic patients are treated without the use of drugs or surgery. Often, through a series of adjustments to your spine, your body begins the healing process. So, although the primary focus of the chiropractor is to detect and correct misaligned or subluxated joints, patients have responded with improvements regarding a wide variety of symptoms. Some of the most common symptoms include:

  • Neck Pain
  • Mid Back Pain
  • Lower Back Pain
  • Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist and Hand Pain
  • Hip, Knee, Ankle, and Foot Pain
  • Carpal Tunnel Symptoms
  • Symptoms of Bursitis and Tendonitis
