Here are some of the most common musculoskeletal complaints we can help you with:
- Neck pain – Relieve pain and discomfort in the neck caused by osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, injuries, and more.
- Lower back pain – 8 in 10 people experience lower back pain during their lives. Adjustments and spinal manipulations can relieve acute and chronic back pain.
- Shoulder pain – Chiropractic care can ease shoulder pain and stiffness caused by rotator cuff injuries, tendonitis, bursitis, arthritis, or postural syndromes.
- Hip injuries – Regular adjustments can subdue pain caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and sciatica so you can get back on your feet again.
- Carpal tunnel – Many carpal tunnel conditions originate in the upper spine, not the arm or wrist. Adjustments can mitigate pain and improve mobility.
- Tennis elbow – Irritation and inflammation of one or more of the outside or lateral forearm muscles is called tennis elbow. Adjustments can relieve pain, numbness, and tingling.
- Headaches – Many headaches are caused by muscle tension or joint stiffness in the neck and upper back. Chiropractic care can often diminish the pain better than Excedrin can.
- Sports or dance injuries – Chiropractic adjustments are crucial to alleviating the spasms, tendonitis, and bursitis that come with overuse or trauma to the muscles and joints.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Healing often starts with a chiropractic adjustment, which is a gentle force introduced into a joint that is intended to release it from its abnormal motion or position. The adjustment process helps Dr. Jeffery diagnose, treat, and prevent musculoskeletal disorders.
The relief you feel right after an adjustment will be temporary if you don’t follow the post-visit instructions that Dr. Jeffery gives you. Often, postural suggestions and muscle movement exercises are needed in conjunction with adjustments to reap full, lasting benefits.
