The Benefits of Chiropractic Therapy – Chiropractic therapy is a form of alternative medicine focused on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders. In British Columbia, chiropractors complete eight years of education, including a doctorate in chiropractic care, followed by extensive mentorship and hands-on practice.
At painPRO, all chiropractic sessions are 1-on-1, meaning your chiropractor will dedicate the entire session to you. Your first 30-minute session includes a comprehensive assessment, beginning with a detailed history and followed by a thorough physical evaluation. Depending on your injury and physical needs, treatment may include soft-tissue/manual techniques, appropriate manipulations, and personalized exercise prescriptions. Chiropractors may also use Shockwave Therapy, fit for Orthotics when necessary, and employ muscle stimulation or other supportive tools to enhance treatment outcomes.
Common reasons patients seek chiropractic care include lower back pain, headaches, neck stiffness, and joint pain. At painPRO, chiropractors use a targeted approach, adjusting only specific joints that restrict function, allowing for increased movement, pain relief, and improved muscle function.
One key benefit of chiropractic therapy is its holistic approach. Chiropractors address not only symptoms but also the root cause of issues, often integrating lifestyle advice and exercises into treatment plans for a well-rounded approach to health and wellness.
It’s important to note that some individuals may prefer not to include manipulations in their treatment. Fortunately, chiropractors offer various other methods to reduce pain, improve function, and support performance. In today’s fast-paced world, where chronic pain and mobility challenges are common, chiropractic therapy offers a non-invasive, drug-free solution. Whether you seek relief from an injury or wish to maintain overall well-being, chiropractic care can be a vital part of your body’s natural healing process.
