Pain Management

Chiropractic adjustments are an important part of our pain management solution. Many patients have one or more subluxations in their spine. These misalignments continually irritate the nervous system, creating blockages and compression that triggers back pain, neck pain and headaches. For example, a car accident injury such as whiplash may cause a misalignment of the cervical spine. As long as the neck remains out of alignment, patients will continually struggle with neck pain and/or headaches. Regular adjustments help maintain proper alignment, manage a patient’s pain without the need for medication.

Holistic Pain Management Options

While we cannot cure these conditions, Apollo Chiropractic doctors can create a pain management plan that will reduce or eliminate the need for medication.  Manual therapy, including myofascial release, targets muscle tissue deep within the body. This helps reduce swelling and inflammation that triggers chronic pain. Many of our patients who suffer from constant aches and pains report a significant improvement after just one treatment. Regular treatments can significantly improve overall health and enhance mobility.
