What Is Chiropractic Care?

Before we get into the details, let’s cover up the basics and understand what chiropractic care is. This is a non-invasive, type of complementary medicine that’s based on the notion that the human body can heal itself via hands-on manipulations from an experienced and trained professional. This doesn’t only help in realigning joints but also leads to pain relief. This can help pain relief in, bonescartilagejoints, connective tissues, and even muscles.

This type of care primarily focuses on spine problems but can help other parts of your body as well. From alleviating pain, reducing muscle tension, increasing blood flow, improving joint movement, correcting posture, and normalizing energy flow, chiropractic care can help boost overall health.

Dr. Aleksander Kanevsky is well known for his  Chiropractic care and functional medicine practice. He’s worked with a massive client base over the years and developed various unique and effective techniques to help musculoskeletal problems. The types of conditions he offers chiropractic care for are:

1. Neck Pain and Posture Correction

From slight discomfort to chronic pain that could lead to disability, neck pain can be challenging to deal with. This usually occurs due to poor sitting posture or excessive use of your phone while sitting. At Atlant Health, our certified chiropractor focuses on treating the root cause of your neck pain. We identify and treat the pain with physical therapy, exercise, and ease neck pain by realigning the spine to ease the tension in your neck muscles. Re-aligning the vertebrae in your neck can help in restoring and ensuring full functioning of the vertebra, and eliminating any muscle spasm.

2.  Lower Back Pain and Radiating Pain

Did you know that about 80% of the adults in the U.S. tend to suffer from lower back pain at some point?  Most of the time, lower back pain is linked with spondylosis. This is when your spine degenerates due to the wear and tear in spine discs as you get older. Some other reasons for lower back pain are strains, sprains, traumatic injury, and spinal stenosis. This is a common problem for people who have poor sleeping and sitting postures. Unlike surgery or injections, chiropractic treatment is an excellent non-invasive alternative that offers long-term results. At Atlant Health, we ensure to offer immediate and effective pain treatment through our exercises and expert manipulation.

Headaches can affect your quality of life and can act as obstacles in daily work. At Atlant Health we use a targeted methodology and adjust your spine alignment. With spinal manipulation, the tension headaches and tension in your neck can be released. This eliminates any stress that’s on the nervous system. You can expect your body to function more freely normally. This reduced stress and tension help in avoiding headaches or migraines.

4. Sciatica

Did you know the common condition in the U.S, affecting up to 40 % of people? Mild cases of sciatica tend to resolve on their own over time. But, the problem arises when this doesn’t happen, leading to muscles weakness and chronic pain. Applying spinal manipulations helps your herniated disc to rest properly into position, taking the tension of your sciatic nerve. Chiropractic care offers long-term pain management and you don’t have to worry about taking daily medications.

5. Sports Injuries

If you’re a regular player, you’ve probably experienced some degree of pain due to a sports-related injury. These injuries can be treat by realigning different parts of your body for complete functioning. When you are injured, your body experiences a trauma that doesn’t only affect the spine alignment, but also adds stress and strain on your muscles. This in turn affects the nervous system’s ability to communicate effectively from the brain to the other parts of your body. Chiropractic alignment can help relieve aches, pains, and soreness associated with physical exercise.
