Chiropractic Adjustments for Pain Relief
Chiropractic care focuses on identifying and correcting spinal misalignments, known as vertebral subluxations. Chiropractors use precise spinal adjustments to realign the vertebrae and help restore proper function to the spine. The goal of these adjustments is to reduce subluxation, improve mobility, and support the body’s natural ability to heal. The term subluxation comes from Latin—sub meaning “less than,” and luxate meaning “to dislocate” or “misalign.”
Auto Accidents
It is important that you get evaluated immediately after an auto accident—even if you feel fine at first. Injuries like whiplash, soft tissue damage, or spinal misalignments can show up hours or even days later. Early evaluation allows for quicker diagnosis, pain relief, and a more effective recovery plan.

Whiplash
Can affect the neck and low back. Whiplash is an injury to the neck(the cervical vertebrae) usually caused by traumatic events such as a rear end car collision. Symptoms of whiplash include pain and aching in the neck and back, referred pain to the shoulders and arms. Symptoms can appear directly after the injury but sometimes not felt until a few days or weeks later. Patients with whiplash may continue to have problems for years following the trauma that caused the injury. Chiropractors believe that much of the trauma of whiplash is due to subluxations and soft tissue damage created by violent movement experienced in the neck.
Sciatica
Sciatic nerve is the largest single nerve in the human body. Pain radiating along the sciatic nerve which runs down one or both legs from the lower back. Sciatica is commonly caused by some type of compression of a spinal nerve in the lower back. Most often sciatic pain is caused when the L5 or S1 nerve root in the lower spine is irritated by a herniated disc. Chiropractors are trained to recognize and diagnose this condition and treat it with chiropractic adjustments to relieve the nerve interference. Sciatica may feel like a sharp, burning sensation. It can also cause feelings of numbness weakness and tingling.
Interferential Stimulation
Is a medium frequency device which is extremely comfortable to the patient. This modality is effective for treating deep tissue without a strong sensation to the skin surface.
Neck Pain
Your head weighs between 10 and 12 lbs which means it's very susceptible to injury especially in an auto accident. Sometimes a person will have numbness and tingling.

Men and women are equally affected by low back pain. Pain can begin abruptly as a result of an accident or by lifting heavy objects or it can develop overtime due to age-related changes of the spine. The lower back is made-up of five vertebrae referred to as L1-L5 in the lumbar region which supports much of the weight of the upper body. The spaces between the vertebrae called intervertebral discs that act like shock absorbers for the spinal column. What causes low back pain? The vast majority of low back pain is mechanical in nature. Sprain and strains account for most acute back pain. Sprains are caused by overstretching or tearing ligaments and strains are tears in tendons and muscles.
