Chiropractors as Spinal Care Primary Providers

Chiropractors as Primary Spine Care Providers Should Chiropractor's be the Primary Spinal Care Providers? I believe that most chiropractic colleges today have trained their students on alternative spinal options for patient care, diagnostic testing, surgical options and how and when to have a referral network with other medical doctors.Many obstacles would lie in the path of this transition like you stated, but the other obstacles would seem to be the differences in various chiropractic techniques, which seem to keep the chiropractic profession as a whole separate at times on which types are considered more successful for various types of conditions. Despite the varying opinions among chiropractors, the global acceptance of chiropractic care as a whole by the medical profession my be the biggest hinderance overall, and their avoidance to integrate alternative medicine options into the mainstream. I believe all of these obstacles are possible to overcome, and who better to serve

What is Chiropractic?

Image
What is Chiropractic? Chiropractic is an alternative form of healthcare which addresses the spinal column, its extremities, and how they interact with the nervous system. When there is an interference in the nervous system, a chiropractor finds where this nerve is being pressured, and traces it back to the spine to make a correction. This allows the nerve to travel without interference to the associated muscles, ligaments and tissues. Our chiropractor office serves North Wales, Blue Bell and Lansdale PA areas. Call to make an appointment at 215 628-2529.

Lansdale Chiropractor: Whiplash Injuries

Image
Auto Accidents and Whiplash After sustaining injuries from a car accident, one thing you are going to be seeking is a solution to the pain. Millions of Americans are in an auto accident every day, and one of the biggest results of an accident is whiplash.                 Whiplash is an injury to the neck that is a result of your head being lashed back and forth in a quick motion, causing discomfort. Many issues can stem from whiplash, such as joint dysfunction and disc herniation. When whiplash occurs, the spine can tear or become loose, restricting range of movement and increasing pain.                 If whiplash is not taken care of, you can suffer from chronic pain, faulty movement patterns, or cognitive and higher center dysfunction. When the nervous system is impacted due to a change in the spine, the way it controls the coordinated function of muscles can cause intense pain signals from the whiplash injury. Mental functioning and difficulties concentrating are

Chiropractic and Nutrition, a Healthy Combo

Image
Chiropractic care is an important part of a healthy lifestyle, and vitamins from raw fruits and vegetables can play an important part in a healthy body. For example, Vitamin C is one of the most important of all vitamins. It plays a significant role as an antioxidant, thereby protecting body tissue from the damage of oxidation. Antioxidants act to protect your cells against the effects of free radicals, which are potentially damaging by-products of the body’s metabolism. Free radicals can cause cell damage that may contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease and cancer. Vitamin C has also been found by scientists to be an effective antiviral agent.

Lansdale Chiropractor : Auto Accidents and Chiropractic

Ever been in an auto accident ? Many accidents which are low impact and commonly brushed off as "not that bad" are actually much worse than conventionally expected. When a car is hit, the damage done to the car actually absorbs the hit that the person will receive, which means that when you are in a low impact collision, and there is little damage to the car, your body actually absorbed more of the impact. This acceleration/deceleration action can lead to many long term problems when untreaed, including whiplash, nerve damage, and chronic headaches to name a few. Commonly a car accident victim will take some over the counter medication for a few days, and when the pain is gone, will assume that there was no damage. Unfortunately, all that is doing is blocking the body's signals that something was injured, and that can lead to injuries that never heal properly. If you have been in an auto accident, no matter how fast you were going, go make a chiropractor appointment for

Chiropractor in North Wales Pa Discusses Headaches

Chiropractic care is an effective way to treat people who suffer from muscle related headaches, and the first step is to get evaluated by a chiropractor who can examine your specific situation, and determine which careplan is right for you. People have lots of long hours at work, sitting in front of the computer for hours on end, and that type of repetitive posture can lead to stress, which causes additional wear and tear on the neck, shoulders, and associated muscles. When these muscles get tight, they pull on the neck and spine, causing additional pressure, which can lead to headaches. Over the counter medications are constantly used by many people to get rid of headaches, but the problem is that the medication doesn't address the real problem, but merely covers up the solution. At our chiropractic office, the patient will go through a detailed physical examination to determine the causes of the headaches, and decide which course of action is going to work for you. If you suff

Sports Injury and Chiropractic Care

With today's athletes, the top priority after an injury is to get back to the playing field as soon as possible, and more and more sports teams are taking a pro-active approach to reducing the chances of re-injury through core stabilization and core strengthening exercises. Gone are the days of "no pain, no gain", and the newer alternative philosophy embraces the concepts of flexibility training, stabilization exercises and chiropractic care to help optimize the body's performance. Everyone can get hurt, thats just a part of the sports world. The idea of training the body to its fullest, though, includes embracing these alternative methods to reduce the chances of an injury, as well as speed up the recovery process. Implimenting a daily flexibility and core balance training schedule into your off-season and in-season workout program will also demonstrate measurable gains which could have otherwise been limited by decreased range of motion.

Blue Bell PA Chiropractor Discusses Auto Accidents

Chiropractic care is an effective met hod of treatment of injuries resulting from auto accidents, and earlier dection of these injuries can result in faster results. Whiplash can occur from a low impact collision even 5-10 miles per hour, and in most cases it is better that there is damage to your car, because it absorbed the impact instead of you. Many people involved in an a low impact accident later develop chronic neck pain and migraines, because they ignored the early warning signs by taking over the counter pain medication to block the body's signs and symptoms. If you are in an auto accident, call a chiropractor who specializes in auto accident injuries, and make an appointment for a checkup to help prevent future complications. http://www.montcochiro.com 6PVGG8ANWKC6

Lansdale PA Chiropractor discusses Ankle Injuries

Ankle pain is often due to an ankle sprain or strain. A sprain is an injury to the ligaments, which connect bones to one another. In most cases of ankle sprain, the ankle is twisted inward, causing small tears in the ligaments. This makes the ankle unstable. The tearing leads to swelling and bruising, making it difficult to bear weight on the joint. Once an ankle is sprained, the injury may take a few weeks to many months to fully heal. Often, the injured ankle remains a little weaker and less stable than the uninjured one. A proper recovery program can prevent this problem. Other structures in the ankle that can be damaged and cause pain are tendons (which join muscles to bone), cartilage (which cushions joints), and blood vessels. Adjacent areas can cause pain to be felt in (referred to) the ankle -- these include the foot, lower leg, knee, and even hip. Chiropractic evalution and treatment of ankle injuries can be very effective, and early detection is important.

Pinched Nerves Discussed by Lansdale Chiropractors

What is a pinched nerve , and do I have one? That is a common question for many people with neck pain, back pain, and referral pain. The nerves in the body each have a specific area that they are responsible for, and when these nerves are pressured, or " pinched ". the nerve can alter different flow to the muscles and cause pain.The nerve has three main components which can be altered when "pinched", including sensory, motor, and autonomic reflexes. When the sensory component is pressured, it can cause pain, tingling, or loss of sensation. The motor component can lead to loss of strength, or muscle atrophy, where as the autonomic reflex, or knee jerk reflex, would affect the normal reflex reaction of the affected nerve region. Chiropractic is very effective in resolving pain from a pinched nerve , but early detection is very important. If you are looking for chiropractor in the North Wales area , and think you have the signs and symptoms of a pinched nerve , cont

Women Risk Snapped Ligaments for Shoe Fashion

( CNN ) -- Despite sprains, foot pains and blisters, towering footwear has legions of loyal female fans. Among them are pop stars who dance intricate choreography wearing colossal shoes. Lady Gaga wore a pair of staggering 12-inch Alexander McQueen heels in her music video "Bad Romance." The theatrical shoes she wore were unveiled by the late British designer McQueen last fall, prompting some models to decline to walk the runway for him. "We have entered a moment of heightened impracticality in footwear," said Elizabeth Semmelhack, author of "Heights of Fashion: A History of the Elevated Shoe." Heels tend to get higher during economic recessions, she added. During the Great Depression in 1930s, the oil crisis in the 1970s, and the dotcom bust heels went higher. Although she's not sure why, Semmelhack said, "it could also be sort of a greater need for escapism." While high heels elongate legs and make women feel skinnier and taller, they also

Chiropractic and Headache/Migraine Relief

Chiropractic and Headache/Migraine Relief Most patients that suffer from headaches or migraines had some sort of traumatic experience in their past, and the musculature of the head, neck and jaw never fully recoved. When these areas become irritated, they send a signal to the brain that there is a problem, which most people refer to as a headache. Whether it was from a motor vehicle accident, a sports injury, a fall at work, or simply a repetutive use activity, headaches can be quite debilitating. Here are some examples of how Chiropractic and Chiropractors can help with headache relief. It is very common for someone who was in an car accident to not see signs and symptoms of headaches until months after the crash, and getting a Chiropractic evaluation as soon as possible can help prevent any long term accident related headaches. Headaches can originate from chemical such as nicotine, alcohol or allergic reactions, as well as other organic or cardiovascular sources. Once these types h

Spinal Decompression and Chiropractic

The intervertebral discs are located between each vertebrae in the spinal column. Of the vertebrae, there are 7 cervical (neck), 12 thoracic (mid-back) and 5 lumbar (low back) discs. The discs make up approximately 1/3 of the spinal column. They have three main functions: (1) "Absorb shock" from everyday wear and tear. (2) Allow movement of our spinal column. (3) Separating the vertebrae. The intervertebral disc is actually a type of cartilaginous joint. Discs consist of an outer layer, annulus fibrosis, and an inner nucleus pulposus, which is a soft, jelly-like, substance. The disc is made up of proteins called collagen and proteoglycans that attract water. Normally, discs compress when pressure is put on them and decompress when the pressure is relieved. These discs do not have a blood supply; therefore, they exchange nutrients by a process called "imbibition". Imagine a sponge filled with water; when that sponge is compressed, the water is forced out of the spong

There are many types of Chiropractic techniques used by Dr. Conrad to relieve stress put upon the vertebral column and its extremities. Some adjustments made by the Dr. Conrad consist of a high velocity, short lever arm thrust applied to a vertebra, which is often accompanied by an audible release of gas (joint cavitation).
