OUR CHIROPRACTORS HELP WITH:
CAR ACCIDENTS
If you’ve been in an auto accident, it is important to get checked right away. Auto accidents can lead to a variety of injuries including whiplash, neck pain, headaches, back pain, and numbness or pain in the arms or legs. Stress, anxiety and sleep problems can also result from car accidents. Chiropractic care is often very effective in helping people return to their normal activities after an accident. Even a minor car accident can cause stress and trauma to the body.
Some people may not develop symptoms immediately following an accident, but over time problems such as degeneration, arthritis, and decreased range of motion can occur as a result of that initial trauma. That is why it is extremely important to get checked as soon as possible.
EXTREMITIES
Chiropractic adjustments are not just for the spine! Our chiropractors extensive training in extremity adjusting. Misaligned joints cause weakness to surrounding muscles which lead to fatigue, pain and injury. This often begins before pain and symptoms are noticed. Properly adjusting these joints improves strength and can help prevent pain and injuries, and even arthritis. An initial evaluation includes muscle testing to identify weakened muscles and misaligned joints to determine the cause of the problem. Often times, the source of pain is not the problem. For example, knee pain may actually be caused by misaligned hips.
Arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, rotator cuff problems, TMJ issues, knee injuries, IT band pain and weakness, bursitis, tendinitis, and fallen arches often respond well to extremity adjustments without drugs or surgery.
