More and more people are turning to top chiropractic therapies to resolve many of our common illnesses, thus reducing their health care costs. More than $8,000 per family is spent on health care every year and it's not making us any healthier.
Chiropractic therapies combine the proper functioning of the spine and the nervous system along with the release of tension in the muscular system. Combining chiropractic with major emphasis placed on muscular therapy has the effect of increasing the efficiency of any care.
The chiropractic approach to:
Osteoarthritis - As we age, many of us develop problems with our knees. Osteoarthritis of the knee is closely associated with a history of injury but can result from a postural problem, such as scoliosis. To relieve osteoarthritis and knee pain associated with them, chiropractic therapy adopts a multidimensional approach that includes adjustments.
Chiropractic adjustments are specialized techniques that aim to restore movement and alignment of joints. To relieve knee pain, your chiropractor can directly adjust the knee or focus at the spine and hip. Chiropractors often recommend specific exercises for patients with knee pain
Back Pain - For years, everyone from athletes to seniors has chosen the chiropractic treatment for back problems. Lower back pain is one of the most common ailments, and one of the main reasons for requesting medical care and absenteeism at work.
Numerous studies have proven many of the top chiropractic therapies utilized for upper and lower lumbar pain is more effective and safer for back problems than conventional medicine.
The lower back is vulnerable because it supports the weight of the upper body. This area is subject to strong muscle tension due to flexors, extension and rotation performed by the trunk. These tensions are affecting the inter-vertebral discs, spinal joints, ligaments and nerves.
Although the causes are multiple and sometimes difficult to identify, they are often linked to neuro-biomechanics of the body and the causes can stem from:
- Weak abdominal muscles
- A compression or irritation of the nerve roots exit the spine (subluxation)
- Spinal birth defects
- Poor posture
- Pregnancy
- Bone or joint disease
- Arthritis or osteoarthritis
- Stress
- Certain working conditions
Chiropractic spinal manipulation is designed to increase joint mobility in the affected area, reduce muscle spasms and inflammation. Moreover, all of the top chiropractic therapies include muscle relaxation techniques, a plan of exercise along with stretching and strengthening.
