Conditions We Help
Pain in the Low Back, Mid Back, Pelvis and Neck
Being sedentary is one of the main contributors to pain in the low back, mid-back, pelvis and neck. It’s no surprise that many people spend much of their waking hours sitting. They start the day by commuting to work, then sitting behind the desk for 8 or more hours, and then sitting at home on the sofa watching Netflix for several hours.
Between that time, they’re often staring downward at their phone. Poor daily postural habits are the number one reason people have pain. The good news is chiropractic helps restore mobility at a segmental level.
We can help stretch out the muscles that need stretching, and teach you to strengthen those muscles that need strengthening. “My goal is to help you develop a program to create new habits and change those old habits into a sustainable way for you to enjoy long-term progress and results,” said Dr Pieter.
Disc Issues
Disc issues are a specific type of lower back problem involving the discs between vertebrae. Chiropractic care may help improve spinal health, which promotes healing. If we can’t help your disc problem, we will refer you to someone who can.
Headaches and Migraines
Tension headaches generally begin with neck strain, which we can help with our comprehensive approach to care. Things often trigger migraines like food sensitivities, hormones or stress, and we will do our best to locate the underlying cause and correct it.
Pinched Nerves
A pinched nerve can occur anywhere in the body, and is caused when surrounding tissue puts pressure on a nerve. The result can be pain, numbness or tingling. We locate the area of impingement and work to correct it through adjustments, mobilisation and other therapy.
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain is typically due to repetitive strain, such as scrolling on your smartphone or clicking your mouse throughout the day. Weakness in the upper back causes the shoulders to roll forward. And a chronic change in your shoulder position changes the structure of the tissue, resulting in compensation pain.
General Stiffness
If you feel stiff and lack range of motion, chiropractic can help restore movement so you can enjoy your favourite activities.
Stress
Physical, emotional/mental and chemical stress can all take a toll on your spine and overall health. Chiropractic care helps your body adapt to daily stressors, so they don’t accumulate in the body.
