Suffering from Chronic Back and/or Neck pain afflicts many people and can be associated with many things including failed surgeries, diseases and injuries.
We specialize in soft tissue injuries for the active athlete. Neck and back pain is very difficult and frustrating to deal with constantly. This will effect every aspect of your life. Even a small misalignment can cause pain by putting pressure on your nerves. If not treated, this can cause spasms and an increase in pain. Pressure on your joints and nerves can be released through chiropractic alignment.This is treatment to correct and eliminate the cause of the pain, not a temporary relief like pain relievers or massage. If you are experiencing back or neck pain visit us today.
In auto accidents and falls, whiplash is a common injury. When a vehicle is struck from behind, or a fall occurs, the head moves violently back and forth, This can cause muscles ands ligaments to be strained and/or torn. This is referred to as soft tissue damage, and can cause stiffness and soreness. Whiplash can also cause structural damage such as misaligned vertebrae, herniated, bulging or ruptured discs, or nerve damage due to the overextension from the violent movement.

Why Is Chiropractic Care Different?
Chiropractic Methods and techniques can be described as an an overall way of looking at and caring for the human body. It's basis revolves around the concept that our bodies are made to be self-sustaining and self-healing. Our bodies are completely controlled by our brain through its connection to the spinal cord and it's vast network of nerves. When this system is not working at its best, the overall performance of our body suffers and declines.
Chiropractic treatment does not involve commonly used drugs and medication as a form of treatment. We know that nutrition is an important part of maintaining a healthy life. Supplements can also be very beneficial. There is generally only a short term benefit from prescribed medication for pain. We know that a better approach is to help our patients understand that treating symptoms through these drugs, only provides that short term benefit. It is a much more productive option to treat the source of the health problem, not the symptom.
Many times the perception is that the chiropractor is only used to treat back and neck pain. The truth is simply this; neck and back pain care is only a small piece of what we help our patients manage and overcome. Chiropractors not only treat soft and hard tissue problems including sciatica and joint pain, but we also deal with more significant health issues. These include headaches, insomnia, fibromyalgia, allergies, and many others.
