Chiropractic Care Q & A
Why choose chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care is a specialized field which treats conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system in a natural, and non-invasive way. When the spine shifts out of alignment, it knocks the body out of balance which can cause pain, not just in the upset vertebrae, but throughout the entire body. Even the smallest injury to the spine can throw the body out of alignment due to the strain put on the nervous system through misalignments known as subluxations. These subluxations interrupt the regular transmission of nerve impulses. This results in the body being unable to work at its optimal level. With many of the newest chiropractic techniques, the level of chiropractic care today is safer, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before.
What is spinal manipulation?
One of the primary sources of treatment chiropractors often use are spinal manipulations. These adjustments apply gentle pressure to treat misalignments in the spine which will restore proper function to the nervous system. Once this happens, it helps your body heal naturally without the use of drugs or surgery. Spinal manipulation also works to repair the mobility of the joints. Through manual application of a controlled force, Dr. Ford eases joints which have become restricted back into their normal mobility. Spinal manipulations don't cause pain; they'll relieve pain as the misaligned joints are pushed back into position through the application of specific force to a particular joint or vertebrae.
Who can benefit from chiropractic care?
Patients who have suffered from injury or accident find relief through chiropractic care where other measures fail. Injury from accidents often causes pain in the vertebrae of the back or neck. The techniques chiropractors use not only treat these issues but also general health concerns as well. Dr. Ford uses a natural, whole-body, drug-free approach to treatment to aide in recovery for many conditions. She provides advanced spinal correction and chiropractic adjustments using the most “state of the art” techniques. This gentle approach to treatment allows her to help patients who have been suffering from acute or chronic issues. Many athletes, both amateur and professional, will often use chiropractic care to treat sports injuries and stay in optimal health and functioning. Preventive healthcare is among the fastest growing areas of use for chiropractic care. Chiropractic care, when done by a trained professional like Dr. Ford, can be used to prevent injuries and help in achieving total health and wellness.
