Why chiropractic?
Chiropractic focuses on improving the function of the joints, muscles and nerves that effect the way you feel and move. Our bodies work as integrated systems – for example the position and movement of your foot/ankle effects the position and movement of your knee – Chiropractors take a big picture approach to diagnosing often uncovering underlying problems which are contributing to chronic pain.
Chiropractic does not utilize invasive techniques or procedures. The body has an amazing capacity to heal – If we get out of our own way! Many times our good intentioned behaviors may inadvertently be contributing to the problem. Chiropractors are trained to consider a wide variety of influences when recommending appropriate treatment.
Treatments may include manipulation or mobilization of joints to restore appropriate movement or positions, myofascial therapies to reduce muscular imbalances and painful trigger points, targeted exercises and training advice to correct underlying weaknesses or movement problems, or modifications of certain activities to reduce prolonged strain.
Regardless of the specific treatment recommended – Chiropractic is focused on returning you to an active healthy lifestyle as quickly as possible – No matter if your goal is running a marathon, swimming without shoulder pain, or just waking up in the morning without a sore back –
