Allergies
Chiropractic care can help reduce how often and how severely you experience allergy symptoms. While it doesn’t work like an antihistamine or provide quick, direct relief, it supports your body by improving overall immune function, helping lessen the frequency and severity of allergies. When the spine is aligned, the nervous and immune systems work more efficiently, helping your body respond to allergens more appropriately. If you struggle with allergies, chiropractic care may offer meaningful relief.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is often linked to frequent computer use. Repetitive typing, especially with poor posture, can lead to pain, numbness, weakness, or a burning sensation in the hands and wrists. The nerves that reach your fingertips travel through the wrist, up the arm, and into the neck. Because the spine is the hub of the nervous system, targeted spinal and joint adjustments from your chiropractor can help relieve the discomfort in your hands and wrists.
Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative disc disease refers to the natural wear of spinal discs as we age, which can lead to pain, nerve compression, and conditions like herniated or bulging discs. Symptoms vary but may include back or neck pain, radiating discomfort, numbness, or tingling. Treatments range from conservative methods like heat, ice, and physical therapy to more advanced options when needed. If you have persistent pain, a chiropractic evaluation can help determine the best care plan.
Disc Problems
Intervertebral discs act as cushions between the vertebrae, allowing movement and absorbing impact. Injury or natural aging can cause these discs to weaken, bulge, or herniate, which may put pressure on nearby nerves and create significant pain. Chiropractic care often provides effective, non-surgical relief by realigning the spine and reducing pressure on both the discs and the nerves. This approach can ease discomfort, improve mobility, and help you return to normal daily activities.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a complex condition with no single known cause, often leading to widespread joint pain that can feel sharp, burning, or aching. Many people also experience fatigue, sleep problems, headaches, or mood changes. While there’s no cure, chiropractic care can help identify contributing factors and provide meaningful relief. Through a thorough evaluation, adjustments, and therapeutic massage, we work to reduce pain, improve mobility, and support overall wellness. If you're experiencing symptoms of fibromyalgia, contact us to schedule a consultation and begin a personalized care plan.
Headaches
Many people assume headaches come from stress, fatigue, or loud noise, and while these can contribute, the root cause is often tightness in the neck and shoulders. This tension can create misalignments in the neck’s vertebrae, leading to pain—80% of headaches actually originate from the neck. Cervicogenic headaches typically begin at the base of the skull and radiate into the temples, forehead, or behind the eyes. Massage can ease muscle tension, while chiropractic adjustments help realign the neck and correct the underlying issue. Instead of offering temporary relief, chiropractic care targets the source of your headaches for longer-lasting results.
Joint Dysfunction
It occurs when a joint becomes stiff and loses its normal range of motion, often due to injury, poor posture, overuse, underuse, or muscle imbalances. This stiffness can cause pain in the joint and surrounding muscles, and may even create issues elsewhere in the body as it compensates. A common example is sacroiliac joint dysfunction, where the spine meets the pelvis, leading to lower back pain and limited movement—often mistaken for sciatica or a herniated disc. A chiropractor can accurately diagnose joint dysfunction and use targeted adjustments to restore mobility and reduce pain. If you're experiencing joint discomfort, chiropractic care can provide effective relief.
Neck/Back Pain
Pain in your neck or back is often the result of subluxations—small misalignments in the vertebrae that place pressure on nearby nerves. If left untreated, these misalignments can lead to muscle spasms and worsening discomfort. Chiropractic adjustments realign the spine, relieving pressure on the joints and nerves and addressing the root cause of the pain rather than offering temporary relief like medication or massage. If you're dealing with back or neck pain, visit us today for effective, lasting care.
Osteoarthritis
Arthritis develops when cartilage between joints wears down, often affecting the knees, hips, back, neck, or hands and limiting comfortable movement. Problems in one joint can also create strain in others as the body compensates. Pain relievers may offer brief relief, but they don’t correct the cause. Chiropractic care helps by improving alignment, easing pressure on the nervous system, and restoring healthier joint motion. By supporting the body as a coordinated whole, it promotes better function and long-term comfort.
Pinched Nerve
A “pinched nerve” occurs when a nerve becomes compressed or irritated, often due to spinal misalignments or bulging or herniated discs. This pressure can lead to inflammation, pain, and even muscle spasms. To relieve these symptoms, the underlying pressure must be addressed. A chiropractic examination can identify the source of the problem, and targeted adjustments can realign the spine and ease the compression, offering effective relief.
Sciatica
Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated, often due to bulging discs, spinal misalignments, or muscle spasms. This pressure can lead to lower back and leg pain, numbness, or weakness. Proper treatment starts with identifying the root cause, and your chiropractor can help diagnose and address it effectively.
Whiplash
Whiplash is a common injury after car accidents. When the neck is snapped back and forth, the muscles and ligaments overstretch, causing strains, tears, stiffness, and soreness. The violent motion can also lead to misaligned vertebrae, herniated or bulging discs, and nerve irritation. Chiropractic care can address both soft-tissue and structural injuries. Gentle adjustments help realign the spine and reduce pressure on nerves and discs, while therapeutic massage eases muscle pain. If you’ve been in a car accident, schedule an appointment with us before turning to pain medications or surgery.
Maintenance Care
Regular chiropractic care doesn’t just relieve pain—it helps prevent it. Routine visits can reduce your risk of injuries and physical problems before they begin. Ongoing care may also improve flexibility, mobility, posture, circulation, immune function, and overall well-being.
