At New Dawn Chiropractic & Acupuncture in Arvada, CO, Dr. Henderson offers a variety of chiropractic techniques to treat back and neck pain. Here are five common techniques:
Chiropractic Adjustments
The misalignment of the spine can cause a range of issues, including back and neck pain. Chiropractic adjustments are a non-invasive and safe technique that helps realign the spine and allow messages from the brain to travel freely. This technique works on every member of the family.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture complements chiropractic care and addresses energy flow in the body. The technique helps relieve pain by targeting blocks in the energy flow known as chi. By doing so, acupuncture can provide effective relief for neck and back pain and help avoid surgery and medication.
Instrument Assisted Adjustments
Instrument assisted adjustments are a more specific type of chiropractic adjustment. They involve the chiropractor using a special type of tool to provide the chiropractic adjustment. This kind of adjustment has its own benefits, and our chiropractor might use it depending on if she thinks it is best for your type of neck pain or back pain.
Manual Adjustments
Manual adjustments are another more specific type of chiropractic adjustment. This means that the chiropractor will use her hands to directly apply the adjustment, as opposed to an instrument. Ask our chiropractor if this type of treatment is best for you.
Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic exercise is a crucial part of chiropractic treatment. It strengthens the soft tissues in the particular area where the pain originates and enables continued treatment outside of the chiropractor’s office.
