How can Chiropractic help?
When you receive treatment you are first evaluated and your injuries documented. X-rays are taken if indicated, and treatment is begun.
Treatment is aimed at reversing the sprain/strain complex and giving you relief, we want to reduce muscle spasm, reduce swelling, reverse joint fixation, take the pressure off the nerve, reduce a ruptured disc and refer you to an Medical doctor if you have a fracture, dislocation, or any medical condition.
Some people want to know if they should to start with a medical doctor, or a Chiropractor.
If you are in a lot of pain and need to go to urgent care, please go. It is after the Urgent care phase that it is a good thing to seek evaluation from a doctor who specializes in orthopedic injuries. The Chiropractor! (Orthopedic injuries are: bones, muscles and joints)
