Chiropractic Care
Therapeutic Pain Management Services
Chiropractic medicine operates under the belief that body structure and the spine affect every part of the body. By manipulating the spine, chiropractors can help patients relieve pain and symptoms from certain diseases without any medication, surgery, or invasive medical treatments.
Patients are typically referred to chiropractors when they are dealing with aches and pains in the head, back, joints, or muscles. In addition to regular chiropractic treatments, patients should also be prepared to make dietary and lifestyle changes that will aid in their recovery. Therapeutic chiropractic care combined with positive lifestyle choices creates a more holistic healing experience.
When to Visit a Chiropractor
Not many people expect to visit a chiropractor during their lifetime. Most people don’t even think about it until they start experiencing chronic pains and their primary care providers recommends it. However, you can always be proactive and take the initiative to schedule an appointment with a chiropractor on your own if you think it will be helpful.
The following are some common reasons people seek out chiropractic treatment:
- Chronic migraine headaches
- Back pain
- Aches and pains from exercising
- Shooting pain in the legs
- Neck pain
- Poor posture that has led to joint and muscle stiffness
- Sitting for long periods at work has caused aches and pains
What to Expect During Your Appointment
Your first appointment with the chiropractor might not involve any direct treatment. In most cases, providers take time to speak with patients and perform a health assessment. They will probably perform a physical exam, and may even take x-rays to get a better understanding of your unique body structure. This information helps them create more personalized treatment plans that are safe and effective.
The specifics of your treatment will depend on the reason for your appointment and the results of the chiropractor’s physical exam. They will discuss their recommended treatment with you and make sure that you are comfortable with it before getting started. With all that in place, our chiropractors can finally start helping you eliminate aches and pains so you can live life to the fullest again.
