Our experienced chiropractors are well-equipped to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including:

How to tell if you have Whiplash

Whiplash injuries typically occur as a result of sudden acceleration-deceleration forces, often experienced during car accidents or certain sports activities. The rapid back-and-forth movement of the head can strain the muscles, ligaments, and soft tissues of the neck, leading to pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion. It can take seconds or days for symptoms to appear, so be wary if you had a recent accident. Pay attention to any headaches, neck and shoulder pain, or dizziness for at least two days after the incident. If you notice side-effects in your neck after an accident, you may benefit from an experienced chiropractor to help you recover and return to normal.

Sciatica and Disc Herniation

Sciatica refers to the pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down through the hips, buttocks, and legs. Disc herniation, on the other hand, happens when the soft cushion-like discs between the vertebrae in the spine become damaged or bulge, pressing on the nerves and causing sciatic pain, numbness, and tingling sensations. These conditions can be distracting and make day-to-day life more difficult. Our complete chiropractic services target the causes of these conditions while helping you manage the pain.

Headaches and Migraines

Headaches and migraines can have various triggers, including muscle tension, poor posture, stress, or underlying health conditions. Chiropractic care can help identify and address the root causes of these headaches by relieving tension, improving spinal alignment, and reducing nerve irritation.

Work, Auto, and Sports Injuries

Work-related injuries, automobile accidents, and sports injuries can lead to musculoskeletal problems such as sprains, strains, fractures, and dislocations. Chiropractic care can provide effective pain relief, promote healing, and restore function by addressing the underlying musculoskeletal imbalances and promoting optimal recovery.

Sprains and Strains

Sprains occur when ligaments, the tough bands of tissue connecting bones, are stretched or torn. Strains refer to the stretching or tearing of muscles or tendons. Continuing to walk without treatment and rest can exacerbate the issue, so seek care before the issue becomes worse. Chiropractic care can help manage pain, reduce inflammation, and support the healing process for sprains and strains by providing targeted adjustments, rehabilitation exercises, and supportive therapies.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs through the wrist, becomes compressed from repetitive and stressful usage. This can result in numbness, tingling, weakness, and pain in the hand and fingers. Chiropractic treatment may include adjustments to the wrist, along with other therapies to relieve pressure on the median nerve and improve overall hand and wrist function.

Upper, Mid, or Low Back Pain

Back pain can stem from various causes, including poor posture, muscle imbalances, spinal misalignments, and herniated discs. Chiropractic care focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying causes of back pain through adjustments, spinal manipulation, and rehabilitative exercises. In the end, we relieve pain, restore function, and improve overall spinal health.

Neck Pain and Stiffness

Neck pain and stiffness can result from poor posture, muscle strain, whiplash injuries, or underlying spinal conditions. Chiropractic care targets the underlying causes of neck pain by adjusting the spine, reducing muscle tension, and promoting optimal neck function. With our care, we can help guide you to a lifestyle that reduces your pain and stiffness.

Shoulder Pain

Numbness and tingling sensations in the shoulder often occur due to nerve compression or irritation. Chiropractic care aims to relieve nerve impingement by addressing spinal misalignment and reducing pressure on the affected nerves. If you experience numbness or pain in your shoulder, full chiropractic care can help reduce pain and make day-to-day life more enjoyable.

Chest Pain

Chest pain can have various causes, including musculoskeletal issues like rib misalignment or intercostal muscle strain. Chiropractic care can help alleviate chest pain by addressing the underlying musculoskeletal imbalances, restoring proper rib alignment, and reducing muscle tension in the chest area.

Extremity Pain (Arm and Leg)

Extremity pain, such as arm and leg pain, can arise from nerve compression, musculoskeletal imbalances, or injuries. Chiropractic care focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of extremity pain, providing adjustments and therapeutic techniques to reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall limb function. Contact a chiropractor if you feel pain, tingling, or buzzing in your extremities, as there is likely a core cause.

Hip Pain

Hip pain can result from conditions like hip joint misalignment, bursitis, muscle strains, or osteoarthritis. Chiropractic care aims to alleviate hip pain by addressing the underlying joint dysfunction, improving hip alignment, and providing rehabilitative exercises to enhance hip stability and mobility.

Knee Pain

Knee pain can be caused by injuries, overuse, ligament sprains, meniscus tears, or underlying joint issues. Chiropractic care can help manage knee pain by addressing biomechanical imbalances, reducing inflammation, and providing therapeutic exercises to support knee function and stability.

Ankle and Foot Pain

Ankle and foot pain can be caused by conditions such as sprains, plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, or joint misalignments. Chiropractic care focuses on restoring proper foot and ankle mechanics, reducing inflammation, and providing rehabilitative exercises to alleviate pain and improve mobility.

Disc Herniation

Disc herniation occurs when the discs between the vertebrae in the spine become damaged or bulge, potentially compressing nerves and causing pain, numbness, and weakness. Chiropractic care can provide nonsurgical treatment options for disc herniation, including spinal adjustments, decompression therapy, and supportive therapies to alleviate symptoms and promote healing.

Muscle Spasm

Muscle spasms can occur due to muscle imbalances, overuse, or underlying musculoskeletal conditions. Chiropractic care can help relieve muscle spasms by addressing the underlying causes, providing adjustments to improve alignment and nerve function, and offering therapeutic techniques to relax and restore proper muscle function.

Pinched Nerve

A pinched nerve occurs when excessive pressure is applied to a nerve by surrounding tissues, leading to pain, tingling, and numbness. Chiropractic care focuses on relieving nerve compression through adjustments, spinal manipulation, and targeted therapies to alleviate pain and restore normal nerve function.

Scoliosis

Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine, often diagnosed during adolescence. Chiropractic care can help manage scoliosis by addressing spinal misalignments, improving posture, and providing corrective exercises to reduce the progression of the curvature and alleviate associated pain.

Tendonitis

Tendonitis is inflammation or irritation of a tendon, often caused by repetitive motion or overuse. Chiropractic care can help reduce inflammation, promote healing, and provide rehabilitative exercises to strengthen the affected tendon and alleviate pain.

Stress

Stress can contribute to muscle tension, pain, and overall discomfort. Chiropractic care can help manage stress-related symptoms by reducing muscle tension, improving spinal alignment, and providing relaxation techniques to promote overall well-being.

Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and tender points. Chiropractic care can provide supportive therapies, gentle adjustments, and pain management techniques to help alleviate fibromyalgia symptoms and improve quality of life.

Earaches

Earaches can be caused by referred pain from the neck or jaw, such as in cases of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. Chiropractic care aims to address underlying jaw and neck issues. We achieve this through promoting proper alignment and reducing referred pain to alleviate earaches and improve overall jaw and neck function.

Discomfort Caused by Pregnancy

Pregnancy can lead to discomfort and musculoskeletal imbalances due to postural changes and hormonal effects. Chiropractic care offers safe and gentle techniques to address pregnancy-related discomfort, including adjustments to promote spinal alignment, alleviate pain, and support overall well-being.

Arthritis

Arthritis involves joint inflammation and can cause pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Chiropractic care aims to manage arthritis symptoms by improving joint function, reducing inflammation, and providing supportive therapies to enhance overall joint health and alleviate pain.
