Chiropractic Treatment: Adjusting to Wellness

What is Chiropractic Treatment?

Chiropractic treatment focuses on assessing, diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions, primarily spinal disorders. Chiropractors use many techniques to address issues such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, and spinal related issues. The approach and techniques can vary depending on each individual and their conditions.

What are the benefits of Chiropractic Treatment?
  • Improve joint mobility to increase range of motion: Chiropractic adjustments can enhance joint mobility and flexibility, which can help you move and improve your range of motion. Chiropractic care can help individuals who deal with arthritis, sciatica, or other chronic conditions.
  • Improve your understanding of your pain: Adjustments can provide relief from various types of pains such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches. The way they do this is usually by restoring alignment of the spine and joints. The chiropractor is there to help relieve your pain while also educating you on what you can do to treat and prevent further discomfort.
  • Improve your body’s strength and physical function: Chiropractic care can help relax and relieve muscle tension, improve strength, and enhance your overall physical function by spinal manipulation and manual techniques. Especially for those who struggle with posture issues, treatment can help improve posture and other spinal related issues.
 
What does a Chiropractic Treatment look like?

Assessment: A session starts off with a verbal and physical assessment of your primary area of complaint. They take a more holistic approach by asking questions about lifestyle, past injuries and health goals. They perform a physical examination, which usually includes checking your range of motion, affected muscles and functional movements.

Treatment: After the assessment, your chiropractor will create a personalized treatment plan that caters to your specific needs and condition. During a chiropractic session, you’ll most likely be getting an adjustment. This is probably the most sought out part of a chiropractic treatment. The chiropractic adjustments involve your chiropractor using their hands to apply a controlled, and fast force on a spinal joint.

Post-Treatment Care: After your session, your chiropractor will most likely prescribe you exercises suited and catered to your needs. There will also be recommendations related to pain management and preventative measures.

It’s important to keep in mind that chiropractic treatment isn’t suitable for every condition or individual. It’s crucial to consult and discuss your situation with a healthcare provider for chiropractic care. Chiropractic treatment includes many techniques that can improve muscle tension, joint mobility, and physical function. Additionally, it’s important to choose a qualified and licensed chiropractor to ensure safe and effective treatment.
