How we can Help

A frequent and overlooked cause of headaches is the malfunction of spinal bones in the neck and upper back. When bones of the spine lose their normal position or motion, sensitive nerves and blood vessels to the head can be affected, producing a throbbing headache. Specific adjustments can help correct mechanical restrictions in the cervical spine that may be related to headache symptoms.

Sciatica, like other health problems that can be traced to the spine, often respond dramatically to the restoration of normal spinal function through conservative chiropractic care. Our approach uses carefully directed and controlled pressure to remove the interference from spinal structures. Adjustments can be quite effective in reducing nerve irritation and its associated pain.

A subluxation describes what happens when spinal bones lose their normal motion or position from stress, trauma or chemical imbalances. This can be caused by automobile collisions, improper lifting, drugs, alcohol, emotional stress, chemical imbalances, and long periods of sitting.

Chiropractic care focuses on detecting, reducing, and correcting subluxation.

Many patients with neck pain have lost the normal forward curve in the neck. This can affect the brain stem and spinal cord. With improved structure and function, neck pain often diminishes or totally disappears, without addictive drugs or harmful side effects.

Collision related injuries are often called a “whiplash.” The resulting instability of the spine and soft tissues can contribute to headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, pain in the shoulders, arms and hands, reduced ability to turn and bend, and low back problems. Symptoms may not appear until weeks or even months later.

After a thorough case history and examination, we will recommend a series of visits to help restore proper motion and position of spinal bones. If caught early enough, inflammation can be reduced and scar tissue can often be minimalized.

Since discs have a very poor blood supply, they also depend upon the circulation of joint fluids to bring in nutrients and expel waste. If a spinal joint loses its normal motion and this pumping action is impaired, the health of the disc deteriorates. Because they are attached to vertebrae, discs do not slip, but they do tear, bulge, herniate, prolapse and desiccate.

The chiropractic approach to disc problems is to help restore better motion and position to the spinal joints. Besides reducing disc bulging, better function helps decrease inflammation so the slow process of healing the surrounding soft tissues can begin.
