What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care is a form of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. It is based on the idea that misalignments of the spine, called “subluxations,” can interfere with the body’s natural healing process and cause a variety of health problems and pain. Chiropractic care at Chiropractic Partners of Clayton involves manual manipulation of the spine, as well as other joints and tissues, to reduce pain, improve function, and promote overall health. Also, we often combine acupuncture and massage therapy to reach the patient’s goals.
The top three reasons why our chiropractic care is good for you are:
- Improves Posture
- Reduces Pain
- enhances overall health and often delays or replaces the need for more invasive procedures.
Improves Posture
According to a study by Holger Cramer of the Department of Internal and Integrative Medicine, Kliniken Essen-Mitte, Faculty of Medicine, University of Duisburg-Essen, Essen, Germany https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5889545/ on the subject of postural awareness and its relation to pain, they concluded that “…improvements in postural awareness are longitudinally associated with reduced pain in patients with spinal or shoulder pain.” The improvement of postural awareness by itself is associated with pain reduction, and it gives us some insight into the importance of posture itself in the treatment of pain, especially in the back, neck, and shoulder.
Our chiropractic care can help you improve your posture, especially in situations where your profession may demand a fixed and/or uncomfortable position, such as sitting for long hours in front of a desk.
Reduces Pain
Our chiropractic care is also helpful in the direct reduction of pain, often replacing the need for medication.
Chiropractic care with Dr. Ferez is a great way to reduce pain and improve overall health. Chiropractic care involves a variety of techniques, such as spinal manipulation, massage, acupuncture, and exercise, that help realign the body, reduce inflammation, and improve range of motion. This helps to reduce pain and improve overall health. Chiropractic care also helps to reduce stress and tension, which can contribute to pain. By focusing on the body’s natural healing abilities, chiropractic care can help reduce pain and improve overall health.
Enhances overall health by delaying or even replacing costly and more invasive procedures.
When we experience pain, especially chronic pain, we are often inclined to think that our solutions must mean invasive surgical procedures because we feel that there isn’t anything that our bodies can do on their own. However, surgical procedures should always be considered the last alternative. Clearly, there are situations where there isn’t any choice around proper surgical care. Especially if your body’s structures have been severely damaged beyond repair. But in many cases, chronic pain, and often intense pain, can be solved by giving your body the space and care that it needs to return to a healthy state. Our chiropractic care is especially important because Dr. Ferez takes special precautions to make it safe, gentle, and, at the same time, transformative.
When placed in the hands of a responsible chiropractor who understands the correct functioning of your body, you may experience all the relief that you are looking for while leaving the more invasive procedures for when no other alternatives are available.
