You may have friends who see a chiropractor or go when they have back or neck pain. If you haven’t been yourself, you truly don’t know what you could be missing. While adjustments are part of those visits, your chiropractor can offer much more. Let’s discover how regular chiropractic visits can reduce pain, improve mobility, boost your health, and improve your overall well-being.
One of the most crucial functions a chiropractor performs is treating pain. If you have an issue with your musculoskeletal system, your chiropractic doctor can provide alternative treatment that won’t include dangerous pharmaceuticals. (1)
How does this work? There are several ways your chiropractor can help without involving medications. For one, adjustments that realign your joints can reduce pain and increase your range of motion.
They also offer stretches and exercises that can help with pain and function. These unique exercises will pinpoint what you should do to restore and maintain optimum joint mobility.
Soft tissue therapy will relax tight, overworked muscles and relieve painful spasms and tension. This service can be especially beneficial for connective tissue conditions.
At NuVision Health Center, we specialize in Neuro-Structural Correction—gentle, precise chiropractic adjustments designed to realign your spine and optimize central nervous system function. Since your spine protects this vital system, proper alignment supports overall health, healing, and well-being.
Did you know that some chiropractors specialize in nutrition, too? They can guide you in making the right dietary choices and selecting proper supplements to support your health from the inside out. Your diet plays a crucial role in your overall well-being, and true healing goes beyond just addressing physical symptoms—it starts at the core.
Making healthy food choices will maximize the care you receive. We coach our patients on proper nutrition and teach them to remove unhealthy, processed foods from their diets to reduce inflammation, which is linked to many diseases and painful conditions.
Many people suffer for years only to be shrugged off by the healthcare industry and given prescription after prescription. They become exhausted trying to fix their health issues and sometimes wrongly believe this is how they must feel for the rest of their lives. We understand that because I have had my issues dealing with poor health, which helped lead me to proper care for myself and now my patients.
If you’re wondering how chiropractic care can help you, we have some examples of what we have helped clients with and how regular visits can help you.
Autoimmune conditions: Many people struggle with autoimmune issues like arthritis and fibromyalgia. These conditions aren’t always inherited and can often be reversed with the appropriate treatment, which may include clinically-dosed supplements and nutrition guidance.
Joint pain: As with other conditions, we often have joint and mobility issues. Chiropractors address the root causes of your joint pain to alleviate it.
Neck and back pain:Many people sit in a cubicle for hours on end and then wonder why they hurt at the end of the day. Chiropractors can make adjustments and use other tools, like light therapy, to help treat the pain. In our clinic, we sometimes use red light therapy for inflammation. (3)
Migraine headaches: If you’ve ever had a migraine, you know how debilitating these headaches can be. Chiropractors can make adjustments that relieve pressure and also guide you on specific vitamins and nutrients that can prevent them in the future. (4)
Weight management: You may have heard that chiropractors can help with pain, but may not know that they can also help you shed those extra pounds. If you’ve struggled to lose weight and can’t seem to make the scale move, we understand it can be difficult to make changes. Many people have experienced diet after diet with only short-term or minimal success. We help our patients with a specific diet that heals and balances hormones to help with weight loss. Our nutrition makeover program helps restore your energy levels, stabilize blood sugar, regulate blood pressure, and assist with fat loss.
Removing toxins:Now, this is something you may not automatically think of when referring to chiropractic care, but as a functional practitioner, I help tons of people with a cellular detox program that uses specific protocols to eliminate toxins from your body.
Recognizing unhealthy habits:Over the years, we sometimes develop habits that aren’t good for us. They become so ingrained that we don’t even notice them. These may be consuming too much caffeine, processed foods, or sitting at our desks without standing. There are many items that can sabotage your health, and we assess them to find the tweaks you can make to quickly change and feel better.
Sleep health:Many people today are sleep-deprived and feel exhausted when they get up. While some medical doctors rely on hypnotic sleep medications, we have natural methods that can help with poor sleep and have you waking refreshed and ready to tackle the day ahead with energy and vigor.
Mental health conditions:While we know mental health conditions are a huge concern for many people today, there are also times when certain deficiencies can contribute to these problems. We look at the overall picture of your health to perform an assessment and see if any deficiencies are present.
Chiropractors are notable for their adjustments. You may have heard of it as spinal manipulation. (5) Those opposed to chiropractic adjustments have long tried to tell others that they will walk in and get their adjustment and sent home without further instructions, but that’s not typical at all.
You will receive a thorough assessment and examination to determine your history and physical condition. They will discuss your symptoms and ask when your pain and discomfort started. You may also talk about the movements and treatments that have helped or made you feel worse.
You will most likely undergo a diagnostic study, like an x-ray to help guide your treatment protocol.
Chiropractors perform manipulations that include high-velocity treatment with hands-on spinal adjustments. They may also offer spinal mobilization that takes the joints through a full range of motion. You may notice a cracking or popping sound, which is completely normal. It comes from pressure being released from your joints. Many patients report feeling relief after one visit.
Together, you will collaborate and form a plan of care that may include strengthening and stretching exercises for strength and better coordination. Patient education is often a key factor in treatment because it allows you to take control of your health with accurate knowledge.
Some clinics use transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulators (TENS). These units send a low-voltage pulse to your painful areas and provide much-needed relief.
If you are always fatigued and never feel rested or have pain each day, we believe a holistic program is what you may need to thrive. Have you had to call in sick to work several times already due to illness and want to know why you catch every virus that goes around?
