Chiropractic Care Specialist

What is chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care triggers your body’s ability to heal itself. Its core principles are based on the understanding that your nervous system controls the function of every system of your body, including your cells, tissues, and organs.

When the vertebrae in your spine move out of position, they can irritate your nervous system. That can lead to dysfunction in any of the tissues and organs that your nerves control, a condition known as vertebral subluxation complex or subluxation syndrome.

Instead of covering up your symptoms with medications, the chiropractic care services available at Applewood Chiropractic correct the underlying cause. The team identifies areas of spinal joint dysfunction and performs manual adjustments and other techniques to improve your health and function.

When should I consider chiropractic care?

You can benefit from chiropractic adjustments and other techniques if you have neck pain, back pain, leg pain, or joint pain. Pain can stem from musculoskeletal issues due to sports injuries, automobile accidents, falls, or other personal injuries or from underlying degenerative diseases.

Chiropractic care can treat:

• Arthritis
• Whiplash
• Muscle sprains
• Herniated discs
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Headaches and migraines
• Degenerative disc disease

There are many other underlying health issues that can benefit from routine chiropractic care, including fatigue, ulcers, asthma, and dizziness. The team can review your medical history and discuss your options for chiropractic care during your consultation.

What can I expect during my chiropractic care visit?

During your initial chiropractic appointment, the Applewood Chiropractic team reviews your health history. They also perform a physical exam to evaluate the range of motion and flexibility in your spine.

Based on the results of your exam, the team customizes a treatment plan using chiropractic adjustments. These carefully controlled manual adjustments restore your spinal bones to their normal position. The providers have extensive experience using the right amount of force to move displaced vertebrae without harming surrounding tissues.

The number and frequency of chiropractic treatments you need depends on your overall health and the condition you’re treating. Many people benefit from having chiropractic adjustments on a routine basis, such as weekly or once a month.
