Here are five of the most common chiropractic techniques used to treat back and neck pain:
Spinal Manipulation
Spinal manipulation is a chiropractic technique that involves applying pressure to the spine to relieve pain. Studies have shown that spinal manipulation can effectively treat back and neck pain, headaches, and migraines.
The exact mechanism of spinal manipulation is not fully understood, but it is thought to work by reducing pressure on the nerves, muscles, and joints. Our trained chiropractor typically performs spinal manipulation, which is considered safe when performed correctly.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression is a chiropractic technique that gently stretches the spine to take pressure off the discs and nerves. This procedure can help relieve back pain, neck pain, and other conditions like sciatica and herniated discs.
Spinal decompression can be done using a traction table or an inversion table. The pain treatment typically lasts 30 minutes, and most people must undergo a series of sessions to see results.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is a popular technique for treating back and neck pain and other conditions like headaches, muscle pain, and stress. In addition, massage therapy promotes relaxation, circulation, and reduced inflammation.
There are many types of massage therapy, and the kind that is right for you depends on your individual needs.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves inserting thin needles into the skin. Acupuncture is thought to work by stimulating the nervous system and releasing pain-relieving chemicals in the body.
Studies have shown that acupuncture can effectively treat back pain, neck pain, and other conditions like headaches, migraines, and arthritis.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments are a common chiropractic technique that involves using the hands to apply pressure to the spine. Chiropractic adjustments are thought to work by restoring spine alignment and relieving stress on the nerves.
Our trained chiropractor performs chiropractic adjustments, which are considered safe when performed correctly.
