Have you been trying to manage your back pain for years with limited success? Have your old sports injuries finally caught up with you? You may be needing help from a sports chiropractor who can help you find permanent relief from back pain. The field of sports chiropractic is open to anyone who is suffering from an injury of any type.

A sports chiropractor will conduct a thorough examination of your spinal column, muscles, reflexes, and bone placement. This will help them pinpoint the underlying cause of pain. Generally speaking, the pain is caused by a misalignment of the spine. The appropriate treatment will be prescribed to correct the misalignment and to relieve pain. Nutritional suggestions and an exercise program will often be prescribed along with the sports chiropractic treatments. This is a winning combination to get you on the road to recovery!

Often ignored, neglected, or even overindulged, the handicapped child is held captive by physical or mental obstacles. Somehow these handicaps are especially painful when they threaten the future and potential of our most vulnerable children. Pediatric chiropractic care can help free some of the restrictions on these children and help them achieve the most optimum level of performance possible. Child chiropractic doctors are dedicated to the elimination and prevention of the Vertebral Subluxation Complex.

While many disabilities seem irreversible, optimizing nervous system function can make a remarkable difference in children who have mental or physical difficulties.

If a patient is experiencing prolonged pain and dis-ease, it isn't unusual that as part of their chiropractic treatment, a chiropractor may recommend that a patient restrict certain activities in order for the spine to heal and stabilize. Healing requires time and protection for acute conditions to be resolved or chronic problems to be controlled. A patient may be advised not to participate in any number of activities while recuperating; such as reaching overhead, lifting heavy objects, playing sports, sitting or driving for prolonged periods, operating certain machinery or tools, or performing other types of movements (such as lying back in the beauty shop sink, or vaccuming).

Most people wait for symptoms to appear before they do something about their health. That approach can be expensive and dangerous since many symptoms may not occur until months or years of body malfunction and deterioration have passed. A simple chiropractic adjustment could have taken care of the problem at the time of injury, preventing your current level of pain and disability. Now is the time to ensure your health and the health of your loved ones with regular chiropractic care!

Here are a few reasons to consider visiting your chiropractic doctor and having chiropractic adjustments on a regular basis:

• Preventative maintenance (i.e., regular chiropractic adjustments) can keep you in tip top condition. Don't wait for obvious symptoms. Have your spine checked at least once a month!
