What We Treat?

Neck pain can come from physical, chemical, and emotional stress. These stresses can build over time and affect the nervous system. 

Screen use, forward head posture, rounded shoulders, inactivity, repetitive movement, car accidents, and whiplash can also affect the neck. Since the neck is close to the brain and nervous system, it is important to understand which structures are involved. 

Neck pain treatment evaluation may include a physical exam, orthopedic or neurological testing when needed, nerve scans, and X-rays as appropriate.

Lower back pain can build under the surface for a long time. One small activity may then trigger symptoms. This could happen while golfing, putting on a sock, rolling over in bed, getting out of a car, or doing a simple daily movement. 

These symptoms may be linked to physical, chemical, and emotional stress on the nervous system. A proper evaluation helps identify what areas are involved. 

The exam may include range of motion checks, soft tissue palpation, joint mobility testing, nerve scans, and digital X-rays as appropriate.

Headaches and migraines are not the same. Headaches may be connected to stress, tension, and the upper neck tissues. 

Migraines are described as a neurological event. Triggers may include sights, smells, sounds, fatigue, dehydration, and stress. 

Since each person’s triggers can be different, the evaluation looks closely at the upper neck and nervous system. It may include nerve scans, X-rays, upper cervical work, soft tissue technique, and the Vielight neuro alpha stimulator when appropriate.

Auto accidents and whiplash are examples of major physical stress on the body. These injuries can affect the neck, spine, soft tissues, and nervous system. 

The impact may also add to stress that was already present under the surface. That is why it is important to understand what areas were affected. 

The evaluation may include a physical exam, orthopedic or neurological testing when needed, nerve scans, and X-rays as appropriate.

Disc injuries may cause local symptoms in the neck or lower back. The symptoms may feel sharp, stabbing, deep, or achy. In some cases, symptoms may also travel into the arms or legs when the area irritates a nerve. 

The evaluation may include a physical exam, neurological exam, X-rays, and an MRI referral when more information is needed.

Carpal tunnel and wrist issues may involve the hand, wrist, and related structures of the extremity. These concerns may also be seen with athletes and repetitive-use patterns. 

Since wrist symptoms can come from different structures, the area needs to be evaluated carefully. Care may include soft tissue release techniques, extremity manipulation, and SoftWave Shockwave Therapy when appropriate.

Sciatic pain often involves the lower back and leg. It may come from the lower back and lumbopelvic spine. It may also come from piriformis syndrome, where a deep glute muscle affects the sciatic nerve. Sometimes, both areas may be involved. 

The exam looks at the lower back, pelvis, and glute region to understand the source. Care may include soft tissue release techniques, manipulation to areas of subluxation and nerve imbalance, and SoftWave Shockwave Therapy when appropriate.

Wellness chiropractic is not only focused on symptoms. It also looks at neurological imbalances and the autonomic nervous system. This includes the organs, glands, and blood vessels. 

The goal is to understand how the nervous system is functioning. Patients are educated from the first visit about wellness chiropractic and how it fits into long-term health and well-being.

Children may be seen for wellness evaluations. Babies may also be brought in after birth, even when there are no signs or symptoms. Children may be monitored as they grow, especially when there are spinal or nervous system concerns. 

The focus is to check nervous system function and understand how the child is developing. The evaluation is based on the child’s age, needs, and findings.

Scoliosis is described as a lateral curvature in the spine. Many cases are described as idiopathic. 

Symptoms may be connected more to neurological imbalance and how the spine moves than to the curve itself. 

The evaluation looks at movement, nerve function, and related soft tissues. Care may include work on areas of spasm, trigger points, or adhesions. Adjustments are performed in a way that does not accentuate the curvature.
