NECK PAIN3
A popular response to neck pain is taking drugs to cover up the problem (aspirin, analgesics, pain pills) or treating its symptoms (muscle relaxers, massage, hot packs).
But, neck pain isn't caused by a lack of aspirin or drugs.
The chiropractic approach to neck pain is to locate its underlying cause. This begins with a complete case history and thorough examination. Special attention is given to the structure and fuction of the spine, and its affect on the nervouse system.
Is the proper spinal curve present? Are the nerve openings between each pair of spinal bones free and clear? Is the head balanced? Are the shoulders level? These and other considerations are used to create a plan of specific chiropractic adjustments to help improve the motion and position of spinal vertebrae.
With iproved structure and function, neck pain often diminishes or totally disappears - without addictive drugs or harmful side affects!
HEADACHES1
A frequent and overlooked cause of headaches is the malfunction of spinal bones in the neck and upper back.
When the bones of the spine lose their normal potition or motion, sensitive nerves and blood vessels to the head can be affected. When spinal nerves and related tissues are stretched or imitated they can produce throbbing headaches. Aspirin and medications may cover up these warning signs, but do not correct the underlying structural cause.
Many people find relief and correction with chiropractic care.
If a thorough examination reveals reduced range of motion, loss of normal spinal curves, or mechanical restrictions, chiropractic care should be considered. After a complete explanation, you'll receive a care program designed for your unique spinal problem.
Many patients report headache relief. Others find tha the correction of their problem takes longer because their spinal problem has existed undetected for many years. Every patient responds differently. Regardless of how you respond, enjoy the drug-free results millions have enjoyed by consulting a chiropractic doctor.
