Chiropractic is not just for treating acute back pain and injuries but for health and wellness. Individuals also seek chiropractic for preventative and maintenance care. Just as one goes to the dentist for a ‘regular checkup’, your spine requires the same care and attention. Our spine is our core, the foundation of our entire body. It protects and houses our nervous system; the body’s control panel.
Reasons for Regular Chiropractic Maintenance
If your spine is not functioning optimally, you may experience any combination of the following symptoms:
Stiff musculature
Less fluid movement, Decreased Agility
Increased Fatigue
Increased Pain
Decreased range of motion
Decreased flexibility
Loss of muscle strength
Postural Abberations/ Slouched Posture
Many patients will complain that they suddenly experienced neck and low back pain after a simple task such as bending down to get their water bottle, tying their shoes or reaching for their toothbrush. However many of us experience stress in a multitude of forms, mental and physical (prolonged sitting, heavy lifting) and as such we are burdened with multitasking and a lack of time for self-care. We end up not having time to exercise, stretch and maintain a healthy balanced diet. These work and life stressors are taxing on our spine and are the “Straws that Break the Camel’s Back.”
