Conditions
Scoliosis involves an abnormal C or S-shaped curvature of the spine. Chiropractic care, working alongside other healthcare providers, plays a role in managing scoliosis for optimal treatment outcomes.
Chiropractic adjustments enhance spinal joint mobility, alleviating discomfort, while specific exercises are taught to improve muscle imbalances and provide better spinal support. In severe cases, chiropractors collaborate with orthotists to supply scoliosis braces, helping to slow down curvature progression in growing adolescents
Chiropractors offer diverse techniques to aid sport injury recovery and performance
* Chiropractic adjustments restores proper biomechanics and enhance joint mobility, ideal for sprain strain injuries.
* Dry needling releases muscle tension thus it is specifically effective to relieve muscle spasms and soft tissue healing
* Kinesiotaping on injured muscles or joint provide support, reduce swelling and improve circulation. It enables athletes to continue their training during recovery and also provide proprioceptive feedback, promoting better movement patterns.
* Rehabilitation exercises tailored to the athlete’s injury and sport will focus on strengthening weak muscles, improving flexibility and restoring function, fostering full fitness and preventing re-injuries.
The Webster Technique is a safe and natural chiropractic method often used during pregnancy. It focuses on pelvic alignment, release of muscle tension and ligament stress in order to maintain a balance pelvis, which is optimal for fetal positioning and a smoother delivery.
Chiropractic adjustments also alleviates musculoskeletal discomfort commonly experienced by pregnant women around the low back, hips and pelvis caused by misaligned joints from hormonal changes or baby’s weight.
Chiropractic adjustments improve joint mobility, reduce joint restrictions and realign joints. It is effective in alleviating pain and slowing down the progress of joint degeneration.
Soft tissue therapy is usually incorporated to addresses muscle imbalances and tension around affected joints thus relieve pain and improve flexibility
Therapeutic Ultrasound provides deep heating to soft tissues. It reduces inflammation, improves blood flow and promotes tissue healing around the inflamed and degenerated joints.
Electrotherapy, specifically transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) effectively manages pain and reduce muscle spasms associated with joint degenerative diseases as the electric current stimulates nerves to promote pain relief.
Exercise and rehabilitation programs that are tailored to the individual’s condition and degree of joint degeneration are able to strengthen the muscles supporting the affected joints, improve flexibility, and enhance joint stability.
