How Chiropractor Care Can Minimize Pain

Starting with a comprehensive examination, the chiropractor will test reflexes and flexibility. Additional tests may be needed, including posture, physical or orthopedic tests as well as standard neurological tests and imaging in order to determine the best course of treatment.

For work injury accident injury, a chiropractor works with you to develop a personal treatment pain to help minimize pain and provide corrective measures. Treatments may include a combination of manual manipulation, physical therapy, and/or soft tissue massage. This can help increase your range of motion and reduce pain. By having the proper alignment in your spine, pressure on your joints can be relieved. That can also improve nerve function and reduce any inflammation.

Subsequent treatments can train muscles to help keep alignment consistent and improve posture. In addition, a home wellness program may be developed to include at-home exercises and ice or heat treatments.

Chiropractors have been proven to help relieve shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, hip, knee, back, neck, and ankle and foot pain.
