People have
been turning to chiropractic health care for over a century. They
have sought treatment for a wide variety of ailments, from migraines
to heel pain. The following is a brief summary of just a few
circumstances where chiropractic is an appropriate health-care
choice.
Trauma
can cause spinal problems which in turn distort the structure and
function of the body, irritating the nerves, bones, ligaments and
discs. Any accident, no matter how minor, can create nerve-damaging
ailments. We can give you a spinal check-up to ensure that your
spine is free from these health-compromising changes and to prevent
any long-term damage.

When a symptom has been caused by repetitive stress or overuse at
work or play, spinal nerves may be impeded. This may in turn
negatively affect one's range of motion, strength, reflexes,
endurance, and, ultimately, performance. Chiropractic can help your
body restore normal nerve function and help you get back to your
peak in both play and work.

Interruption of proper nerve flow, for whatever reason, can
eventually lead to pain, disability, and an overall decrease in the
quality of life. You don't need to live with it— we can help you get
to the root of the problem, set your body up to heal, and restore
your health.
The additional weight and stress on the framework of the body
during pregnancy can cause pain in almost any part of the body.
Because pregnant women are often reluctant to take any
over-the-counter and prescription pain relievers, they often turn to
chiropractic care to help alleviate pains associated with pregnancy.
There
are numerous physical problems associated with aging, and drugs and
surgery are often prescribed to treat these problems. We pay special
attention to addressing these age related issues.
Chiropractors understand the effects of aging and have been helping
folks deal with the aches and pains associated with aging for
decades. As with other patients, we diagnose the ailment, determine
what's causing it, and then choose from a variety of gentle
therapeutic techniques to alleviate it.
Even if you feel as though you're operating at 110% or better,
chiropractic can help you maintain your desired level of health and
fitness. You may currently have spinal irregularities that exhibit
no symptoms whatsoever. However, problems may arise in the future.
Just as regular maintenance visits are recommended for your car,
and regular dental cleanings and check-ups are recommended for your
teeth, regular chiropractic check-ups can help detect and prevent
spinal stress or joint disorders.
In short, chiropractic health care is a smart choice for most
everyone, at any time-you'll stay healthier longer, and the time and
energy (and money!) saved due to your preventive efforts can be
spent on things that are fun to do. A better quality of life awaits
you.
