What Is Spinal Manipulation Therapy?
The spine is one of the most complex areas of the body. The assortment of vertebrae, discs, joints, nerves, and muscles play a significant role in the way our bodies operate each day. Spinal manipulation therapy helps your body by improving joint motion and preventing pain.
Spinal manipulation may utilize the hands or instruments to shift the areas of the back into alignment. When this happens, you are likely to hear cracking or popping. You may feel a sudden sense of relief, as your back falls into proper alignment.
Conditions Treated by Spinal Manipulation & Adjustments
A variety of conditions can be treated with a chiropractic adjustment. The most common conditions treated with adjustments include:
- Subluxations
- Dislodged or herniated discs
- Nerve pain
- Whiplash
- Extremity injuries
No matter the source of your pain, getting to the root of the issue will help you deal with it. We will address your pain by fixing the source of the issue rather than treating the symptoms.
The Benefits of Spinal Adjustments
One benefit of a spinal adjustment is that it improves your overall well-being. Some people feel an improved sense of immune functioning after an adjustment. Spinal adjustments can also improve your flexibility. You will notice that your mobility has improved and that you have lengthened muscles that are less prone to injury. Balance issues are also corrected with spinal manipulation. You may notice that your body feels stronger and that you experience less pain because your body has more muscle balance.
