The
spine is one of the strongest, yet most sensitive, parts of
your body. The main objective of Chiropractic medicine is the
alignment of the spine while using physical therapy and massage in
conjunction with gentle manipulation to relieve pain and speed
healing. A pinched nerve can cause untold problems if left
untreated. Too many people ignore the warning signs such as a stiff
neck, headaches, tingling sensations, numbness. Did you know that
the impact of an automobile at speeds as little as 10 miles per hour
can cause a whiplash type injury? If left untreated, this can cause
further damage and lead to arthritic and possible neurological
changes.
Back pain is the number one cause of disability in people
aged 18 - 46, and the second leading cause of missed workdays. Back
pain is generally due to poor posture and lifting techniques,
failure to seek medical care following an accident, failure to
receive adequate treatment for back injuries, and decreased physical
activity. Chiropractic care focuses on the cause of your problem and
does not rely on medication for short-term relief of symptoms.
Recent studies show that at any given time more than 10% of
Americans are suffering from neck pain. The neck is comprised of
many delicate and pain sensitive structures, and is frequently
exposed to abuse and stress that may result in neck pain. Some
common factors involved in neck pain are incomplete recovery from
past injuries, poor posture, and prolonged sitting. Regular spinal
alignments generally help to prevent neck pain due to these sources.
More than 80% of Americans report suffering from lower back pain at
some point in their lives. Lower back pain is the leading disability
reason stated in workers' compensation claims. When left untreated,
lower back pain can severely restrict mobility. If you feel that you
