Chiropractic can effectively treat many conditions, some of which you may be
familiar with and some that will make you say: "Really? I didn’t know
you can treat that." Through keeping a healthy spine and nervous
system, many of our everyday aches and pains can be prevented. A healthy spine
and nervous system leads to a healthy and strong immune system, making it very
easy for us to fight off sickness.
In acute care situations, as for the muscular and skeletal systems are concerned, chiropractic care has great success in treating the following conditions:
headaches
neck, mid and low back pain
rib problems
shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand complaints such as carpal tunnel syndrome
hip, knee, ankle and foot problems such as plantar fascitis
arthritis
fibromyalgia
poor posture
cervical (neck) and lumbar (low back) disk herniations or bulges
fatigue
shin splints
sciatica
lumbago
thoracic outlet syndrome
whiplash
pulled muscles
facet syndrome
sprains/ strains
sacroiliac syndrome (SI)
short leg
bursitis
tendonitis
tennis and golfer’s elbow
piriformis syndrome
pes planus (flat feet)
scoliosis
rotator cuff
and many more
Chiropractic has shown positive effects on some visceral (organ) conditions; however there is no definitive research that backs these claims. Here, at East Ridge Chiropractic, we have had positive responses from patients who
suffer from asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcers and children with chronic
inner ear infections, just to name a few.
