8 Reasons To See A Chiropractor

When patients seek chiropractic care at Clairpointe Family Chiropractic, the most common symptoms are neck, back, or sciatica pain. Chiropractic treatment is highly effective for healing these injuries but it can also assist with various other conditions too.


8 Reasons You Should See A Chiropractor

1.) Chronic Back Pain
Chronic Back pain is the prime reason why most people seek chiropractic care. Here at Clairpoonte Family Chiropractic, we take x-rays of your neck and back, looking for subluxations (misalignment in the spine) causing you pain.  Chiropractic adjustments will elevate that pain and symptoms, allowing you to return to your everyday activities.

2.) Sciatica

Sciatica is characterized by pain, weakness, numbness, or tingling in the leg due to injury or pressure on the sciatic nerve, and can be treated with chiropractic adjustments. The adjustment will remove the pressure off the sciatica nerve allowing your body to heal naturally.

3.) Neck Pain

Subluxations (a misalignment in the spine) can cause neck pain, tingling and numbness down the arms, insomnia, migraines, blurred vision, dizziness, earaches, fatigue, and more. Tech Neck has enhanced subluxations in the cervical spine by looking down at your tablet, computer, or phone for long periods of time. Good news! Chiropractic care can help to heal the cervical spine and reverse Tech Neck through chiropractic adjustments and cervical tractioning.

4.) Headaches

There are several types of heads, such as tension, migraines, sinus, cluster, hypertension, exertion, and hormonal. The pain from these headaches can disrupt your daily activities and possibly cause you to miss work. Most times, we find those who suffer from headaches or migraines will have subluxations (a misalignment within the spine)  in their cervical spine (neck). A chiropractor will adjust your neck to remove the subluxation, restoring proper communication from your brain to your body, and reducing or eliminating pain from your headache. 

5.) Joint Pain

All joints can become subluxated (misaligned) causing pain and discomfort. For example, if you are an avid runner or walker, your knees, hips, and ankles can become subluxated and start to feel achy or cause sharp pains. By adjusting these joints, the chiropractors are releasing tension and improving your range of motion allowing you to continue practicing your sport pain-free.

6.) The Immune System

Stress, injury, and lack of nutrition can all suppress the central nervous system. A subluxation in your spine, for example, can lead to a serious problem within your central nervous system and can weaken your immune system. Getting regular chiropractic adjustments will stimulate your immune system, allowing you to heal faster and defend yourself during cold and flu season.

7.) Foot Pain

Did you know that each foot has 26 bones to help you stand, walk, and run? These bones range in size and can easily shift out of alignment, causing foot pain. Chiropractors can adjust the bones in your feet, reducing pain and restoring alignment.

Chiropractors can also aid the healing process of Plantar Fasciitis by adjusting your feet. The chiropractors at Clairpointe Family Chiropractic will realign the foot, offer you specific plantar fasciitis exercises, and icing instructions to help you through the healing process.

8.) Sports Injuries

Sports can exert tremendous stress on the spinal column and joints. Clairpointe Family Chiropractic works with many Grosse Pointe athletes to achieve optimal health and prevent injury. Sports injuries can also lead to secondary pains and problems. Therefore, we treat not just the specific location of pain but also the areas radiating out from it.
