I have good news for those that suffer from stomach ailments. The good news is that chiropractic & acupuncture can help reduce stomach ailments such as indigestion, acid reflux and excessive gas.

What is the science behind this you ask? There are certain nerves that run through the spine which control the production of stomach acid and when these nerves fall out of alignment, they can result in excessive production of stomach acid. The excessive production of stomach acid can lead to various forms of stomach ailments. 

A chiropractor is able to adjust the spine so that the nerves align and begin to work properly. This ultimately leads to the elimination of various digestive problems. Likewise, acupressure and acupuncture may also relieve digestive problems by applying pressure or acupuncture needles to specific points on the abdominal region.

Are you looking for non-invasive and pharmaceutical-free treatment for your arthritis pain? Chiropractic may be your best option.

Chiropractors are mostly known for treating the spine and back; they’re not commonly known for treating the joints and muscles. The good news is that Chiropractic is rapidly becoming a well-known and beneficial treatment for joints and muscles. Arthritis sufferers rejoice!

 Don’t be Scared. Chiropractor’s don’t Just “Crack” Bones.

Chiropractor’s do much more than just adjustments. In fact, there are over 150 chiropractic techniques used to manipulate the joints, spine and muscles. For those suffering from Arthritis, chiropractors can relieve pain by gently manipulating your soft tissue to stop muscle spasms and relieve tenderness.

Chiropractors Offer Adjustments Plus More

• Ultrasound: People think of ultrasound as imaging technology, but when applied to soft tissues and joints, sound waves can also produce a massaging effect that helps reduce swelling and decrease pain and stiffness.

 

• Electrotherapy: These tiny electric pulses are not painful. They treat soft tissue injuries by stimulating nerves and muscles.

 

• Low-level laser or “cold laser”: This technique uses a non-heat-producing laser or light that penetrates deep into the tissue, sometimes reducing inflammation.

 

• Infrared sauna: Imagine having a hot compress warm up your joints from the inside. These rooms use controlled amounts of heat to relieve pain and increase circulation.

 
The Rich and Famous are Reaping the Benefits of Chiropractic for Arthritis Pain

“My chiropractor used gentle flexing movements (which she called “fluffing”) to keep my joints mobile and to keep the blood flow moving to the cartilage around joints. This approach has brought me back to a state of full integrated healing and strength. Taking a pill to further suppress the immune system to relieve rheumatoid arthritis is not what I would ever recommend or do for myself.”
