Chiropractic Q & A

Why choose chiropractic?

One of the main reasons to choose chiropractic care for spine and joint problems or injuries is because chiropractors specialize in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions as they relate to your overall health and well-being. They take a holistic, conservative approach to alleviating pain and symptoms relating to your spine or joint condition. The focus of chiropractic is on diagnosing the underlying cause of your pain rather than masking symptoms with prescription medications.

The experienced chiropractic team at Pro Rehab Chiropractic creates a comprehensive treatment plan based on your specific injury or condition and strives to improve function in all related systems of your body.

Chiropractic care often results in long-term relief from pain, improved range of motion, and a better quality of life. Since chiropractic adjustments promote your body’s natural ability to heal, without the use of drugs, it’s a safe technique for all ages. There are no serious side effects to chiropractic care, only improved wellness.

What conditions can chiropractic adjustments treat?

Chiropractic adjustments by one of the experienced chiropractors at Pro Rehab Chiropractic are effective at treating nearly any condition relating to your musculoskeletal system, such as:

  • Neck pain and headaches
  • Spinal pain
  • Herniated discs
  • Shoulder pain
  • Low back pain and sciatica
  • Mid back pain
  • Hip pain
  • Knee pain
  • Ligament injuries
  • Sports injuries or conditions
  • Car accident injuries like whiplash
  • Work injuries
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

The condition of your spine can influence every system in your body, so it’s not unusual to notice health improvements in other areas while you’re undergoing chiropractic care.

What can I expect during my chiropractic adjustment?

Your adjustment typically consists of a series of gentle, manual techniques that move your vertebrae into correct alignment. Spinal manipulation is a common therapeutic treatment to relieve pressure on vertebrae, reduce pain, and increase the range of motion. Chiropractic adjustments shouldn’t be painful.

Your provider may use the advanced technology of the PulStar® System to adjust your spine. This system records areas of your spine that respond to gentle impulses, so your chiropractor can apply precise pressure exactly where it’s needed, without “cracking” or “popping” your bones into place. This system is gentle, yet highly effective, and many patients enjoy reduced pain after just a few adjustments.
