Spinal Column: A Fragile but Crucial Part of the Body
Vertebral Subluxation: A Misaligned Spinal Column
Pain throughout the Back
Sudden Headaches
Stiffness and Restricted Mobility
Pain caused by subluxation often spreads to the surrounding muscles, making them stiff and immobile. So, if you are experiencing muscle stiffness and back pain, there is a strong chance that you are suffering from subluxation.
To get rid of all those agonizing symptoms, multiple sessions with a chiropractor can be of great value. They have the expertise to put the misaligned vertebrae back into their proper location with spinal manipulations. With each chiropractic session, you will feel that the debilitations caused by subluxation are withering away.
Back Pain
• A bony lumbar region of the spinal column can lead to back pain.
• A slipped disk in between vertebrae can lead to nerve damage that can also cause back pain.
• Ruptured ligaments around the spinal column can also bring on pain in the surrounding body parts.
• Spasm in lower back muscles and complications of internal organs in the region (e.g. kidney stones) can also cause back pain.
Back Pain is Detrimental for Human Health
Aside from a constant feeling of restlessness and discomfort, protracted back pain can be detrimental for human health for many other reasons as well. Therefore, it is important to commence chiropractic back pain treatments immediately.
• Untreated back pain can set off an unhealthy weight loss issue. The affected individual can also experience bouts of fever.
• Unrelieved lower back pain can also lead to the development of excretory incontinence, while numbness in the lower limbs also becomes common.
• If back pain is left untreated, the pain can also creep into other parts of the body. In some instances, the pain even goes below the knees.
Role of a Chiropractor
Injuries due to Road Accidents
Injuries due to road accidents, no matter how minor or sizable they are, have a detrimental effect on the musculoskeletal system of the body. Even applying a sudden brake where you don’t apparently sustain any injury can leave you with whiplash. Following such seemingly minor road mishaps, affected people often complain about chronic pain in and around the spinal column.
Treating such chronic pain with prescription medications is not an advisable treatment plan especially after what we have been witnessing with the ongoing opioid epidemic in this country. Chronic pain in the spinal region following a road accident can be treated through chiropractic adjustments.
Chiropractors are trained to do spinal manipulations to neutralize the detrimental effect of whiplash and any sudden shock in the affected area, without banking on the use of drugs that always come with certain side effects.
Chiropractic Adjustments: A Part of a Recovery Regimen
Chiropractic Adjustments: An Enduring Solution for Chronic Pain
Pain is a telltale sign of injuries and diseases. It is actually an inherent physiological signaling to notify the person about the ongoing anomaly in the body. With the healing of injuries and diseases, pain also diminishes with time.
However, in some instances, pain lasts for an extended period of time. This long period of throbbing and hurting is classified as chronic pain. According to different medical studies, any bodily pain lasting for more than 12 weeks can be termed as chronic.

Migraine
Pinched Nerves
The nerves in the body can get pinched due to many internal and external causes resulting in different neuropathic conditions. In medical terms, this condition is referred to as radiculopathy. At first, a pinched nerve doesn’t really bother the affected person.
However, as time passes, radiculopathy results in numbness in the affected area. In some instances, a pinched nerve also gives way to chronic pain. In rare cases of radiculopathy, a person can lose control of certain muscles because their poor nerve connections made them weak. For that reason, it is important not to take the condition lightly. Apart from consulting your general physician, it will be helpful to schedule some chiropractic treatment sessions too.

Why Chiropractic Treatments?
A Treatment with NO Side Effects
We all are well aware of the fact that conventional medical treatments are decked with side effects. The use of prescription medicine certainly can treat a disease, but it also leaves unwanted effects on the body. For instance, regular use of certain prescription medicines can cause stomach ulcer. Similarly, some prescription medicines are known to cause kidney stones.
On the other hand, chiropractic adjustments don’t require the ingestion of any chemical. They involve a purely physical treatment that provides relief to the affected patient without bringing along any detrimental side effects.
