Chiropractic
treats a wide variety of conditions and does
not rely on drugs or surgery to achieve its
results. Chiropractic is recognized as a safe
and effective treatment for conditions of musculo-skelatal
origin.
Chiropractic effectively
treats any number of conditions such as:
Arthritis literally means inflammation in
the joints. Osteoarthritis is a slow degeneration
of the joints that connect your bones and allow
you to move. Aging, injury, poor posture and
excess weight can cause joints to wear down
and become stiff and painful. Regular chiropractic
treatment along with diet, exercise, and supplements
form the treatment approach Dr. Culbreth uses.
Usually characterized by a dull, persistent
ache that increases with movement, whereas tendinitis
typically causes sharp pain on movement will
often be accompanied by swelling and fluid accumulation.
This painful disorder best managed by curtailing
ingestion of inflammatory causing foods such
as red meats and abstaining from over-activity
and getting plenty of rest and fluids. Dr. Culbreth
will administer an appropriate treatment plan
based on your unique health presentation.
The most common work related injury today. Often
times people respond well to conservative care
including chiropractic adjustments, ergonomic
modifications in the workplace and very importantly
nutritional supplementation.
A commonly misdiagnosed condition, headache
is often due to tension in neck and shoulder
muscles, stress, subluxation in neck, or a combination
of these causes. Chiropractic treats the cause,
not merely the symptoms.
This is the complaint which most often leads
people to seek chiropractic help. It is responsible
for more days lost from work than even the common
cold. It may be due to injury, subluxation,
occupational hazards, improper lifting, disc
problems, sprains and/or strains. Symptoms may
include back pain, spasm, leg pain, numbness,
burning and weakness.
Neck pain or stiffness, persistent headache,
arm pain/numbness or dizziness may be due to
an old injury or subluxation (pinched nerve).
Regular chiropractic adjustments address joint
restrictions, freeing up the nervous system
and speeding recovery.
An often crippling condition, sciatica manifests
itself as leg pain, usually associated with
low back pain, burning, numbness and/or weakness,
It is commonly due to disc problems, subluxation,
joint inflammation, or low back sprain/strain.
Chiropractic care is an excellent, conservative
treatment that often eliminates the need for
unnecessary surgeries.
Although all the preceding conditions can be
brought on by accident or injury, stress (over
time) may also be the culprit. Stress can lead
to weakness and fatigue, leaving you vulnerable
to chronic discomfort and injury. See how regular
chiropractic care can help your body fight the
negative effects of stress.
