Chiropractic Care For Pain Relief

Pain relief is the most common reason people receive chiropractic care. Chiropractic care is very effective and natural approach to relieving pain of many types. From neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, jaw pain, hip pain, knee pain, ankle or foot pain and arm or wrist pain chiropractic adjustments have been found to provide relief to all of these issues. Pain in these areas can be caused by many different factors, but they all relate to a misalignment of joint. When a joint misaligns the body increases muscle and ligament tension to correct it which can cause pain and restricts movement in order to protect it. A healing response is also initiated increasing blood flow to the joint causing swelling and edema which can be painful. A misalignment can also cause pressure on nerves in that area resulting in local nerve pain or radiating pain that travels to other areas of the body.

The effectiveness of chiropractic care is due to the many ways that adjustments impact the body. Chiropractic adjustments are very specific, typically targeting just one specific point within the spine but the effect impacts the entire spine and often the entire body. When a vertebra is adjusted and the body stabilizes the vertebra in it’s proper alignment the joint is able to move freely, muscle and ligament tension decreases, pressure on nerves reduces and the swelling and pain reduces.

In our office we start out by adjusting the spine to correct the alignment and allow the nervous system within the spine to function and communicate without restriction from pressure and missalignments. With an optimally functioning nervous system the body is able to reduce tension decrease swelling resulting in less pain!

The more specific your chiropractic care is the better your results will be. That’s why in our office we use many different exams and scans on your first visit to determine the specific root issue that is causing your pain. We also provide very gentle and specific adjustments that allow your body to respond quickly and begin healing.
