Optimum Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a health care profession that deals primarily with the relationship between the structure and function of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, specifically the spine, and their connection to overall body function and wellness. Chiropractors commonly refer to these irregularities as a subluxation and they can be caused by a combination of several factors including lifestyle, trauma, aging, stress and inflammation. Common symptoms include localized aches, pain and stiffness to patients' necks and back and more severe cases may have shooting pain, numbness, tingling or weakness in the arms or legs. Chiropractic treatments have been proven effective for injuries from workplace or auto accidents, sports injuries, bulging discs or herniated discs, arthritis, sciatica, headaches, muscle tightness, soreness, and "pinched nerves." It has also been shown to help with a growing number of other conditions, and is safe and effective for back pain due to pregnancy. Patients don't even need to have a specific complaint to benefit from a visit as Chiropractors also focus on ongoing preventive or wellness care. Chiropractors emphasize the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine, and disorders which affect general health via the nervous system. Our holistic approach is firmly grounded in the sciences of anatomy, physiology, neurology and biomechanics.
