What We Treat
Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people visit chiropractors, especially due to long hours of sitting at desks or commuting in the Boston area. Chiropractic adjustments help to realign the spine and relieve pain caused by poor posture or spinal misalignments.
Neck Pain and Stiffness
Neck pain, often caused by tech neck or bad posture from working on computers or smartphones, is prevalent among Bostonians. Chiropractors offer adjustments and therapies that reduce tension and restore mobility, helping to prevent chronic discomfort.
Sciatica
Sciatica, characterized by pain radiating down the leg from the lower back, can be debilitating and often impacts those with physically demanding jobs or long commutes. Chiropractic care can reduce pressure on the sciatic nerve, offering lasting relief without surgery or medication.
Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that causes pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Chiropractic care helps manage osteoarthritis symptoms by improving joint function, reducing inflammation, and promoting better range of motion. Through gentle adjustments and supportive therapies, chiropractic care offers a natural, non-invasive way to reduce pain and improve joint health, enhancing overall quality of life for patients with osteoarthritis.
Numbness and Tingling
Numbness and tingling are often symptoms of nerve compression or irritation, commonly caused by misalignments in the spine. Chiropractic adjustments focus on relieving this pressure, restoring proper nerve function, and reducing these uncomfortable sensations. By addressing the underlying cause, chiropractic care can prevent these symptoms from progressing and improve overall nerve health.
Chronic Pain
Chronic pain, whether from past injuries or ongoing conditions, can severely impact quality of life. Chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to managing chronic pain by addressing misalignments in the spine and promoting overall health. Regular treatments can help reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance the body's natural healing processes, offering long-term relief without reliance on pain medications.
Headaches and Migraines
Frequent headaches and migraines can stem from tension in the neck and upper spine, especially for those dealing with stress or long work hours. Chiropractic adjustments help alleviate pressure and improve blood flow, reducing both the frequency and intensity of headaches.
Herniated Discs
A herniated or slipped disc occurs when the cushioning between vertebrae becomes damaged, causing pain, numbness, or weakness. Chiropractic care offers non-invasive treatment options that help realign the spine and relieve nerve pressure, offering relief without surgery.
