Treating Pains and Injuries with Chiropractic Care

Posted .

Advanced Spine is your premier Phoenix Chiropractor

Many people think that a chiropractor only treats sore backs with back rubs and adjustments. In reality, there is much more to what a chiropractor can offer. By focusing on the relationship between the spine and the nervous system, a chiropractor can address many issues with the human body.

The biomechanical and structural relationship between the spine and nervous system can affect many aspects of the body. As such, chiropractors can treat a variety of conditions, including:

  • Lower back pain
  • Neck pain
  • Leg pain
  • Headaches
  • Arthritic pain
  • Sports injuries
  • Repetitive strains
  • Car accident injuries

Overall, chiropractic treatment has the ability to restore the structural integrity of the spine while also reducing the pressures placed on sensitive neurological tissues. In turn, this has the ability to improve your overall health.

Assessing Treatment Options

When assessing your condition, your chiropractor will examine your joints, muscles, bones and tendons as well as your spine, head and extremities in order to make note of any tenderness, misalignment, defects or asymmetry. Chiropractors are also trained to perform a variety of different neurologic, orthopedic and cardiovascular tests, this includes assessing range of motion, muscle strength, stability and muscle tone. To complete these examinations, chiropractors are trained to use diagnostic studies and tools such as laboratory diagnostics, radiography and neurodiagnostics. When appropriate, a chiropractor may refer a patient to a medical doctor or other health practitioner.
