Auto Accidents:

Auto Accidents are responsible for over 3 million injuries annually, many of which result in serious trauma to the spine and neck in the form of whiplash, or more serious spinal injuries. In some cases, auto accident injuries are hidden and are seldom detected for months or even years.

If you have received a recent neck or back injury, it is important that you seek medical help as soon as possible. With proper chiropractic adjustment and physical therapy, much can be done to bring the spine back into proper alignment and relieve pain. Failure to do so can result in permanent injury which can affect other organs in the body.

Headache Pain:

A frequent and overlooked cause of headaches is the malfunction of spinal bones in the neck and upper back. When bones in the spine loose their normal position or motion, sensitive nerves and blood vessels to the head can be affected.

When spinal nerves and related tissues are stretched or irritated, they can produce throbbing headaches. Aspirin and medication may cover up these warning signs, but do not correct the underlying structural cause.

Many people experience correction and relief through chiropractic care.

Whiplash - Neck Pain - Mid-Back Pain - Low Back Pain

Subluxation:  One or more of the bones of your spine move out of position and create pressure on, or irritate spinal nerves.

Sciatica:  Shooting or cramp-like pain in the leg, which can be excruciating, making standing or sitting nearly impossible.

Disc Problems:  Disc conditions and injuries such as degenerative disc disease and herniated discs are among the most common type of problems causing back pain or neck pain

Scoliosis:  An abnormal medical condition in which the spine is curved laterally, from side to side.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome:

As of July 2009, there are approximately 307 million people living in the U.S. Of these, "Evidence suggests that about 3% of women and 2% of men will be diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome during their lifetimes, with peak prevalence in women older than 55. Still, determining how many people actually have CTS is very difficult. Many people who report CTS symptoms have normal test results, and some people have no symptoms and show abnormal results. Furthermore, there is some evidence that after a decline in cases, the prevalence in CTS is rising." Source:  The New York Times

Sports Injuries:

Spinal injuries can restrict range of motion, reduce strength, slow reflexes, shorten endurance, and decrease performance. Chiropractic care for these types of injuries has become increasingly popular. Professional sports teams, Olympic trainers, and competitive athletes are employing chiropractic doctors - because they demand results.

Chiropractic care can help to restore function to spinal joints that are fixated and not moving properly. Besides helping to relieve pain, chiropractic care also helps to reduce inflammation.
