Therapy

At Comfort Care Chiropractic, we offer many types of therapy for you. These include mobilization, ice, trigger point, interferential muscle, and neuro-muscular re-education and cold laser therapy. Depending on your condition, therapy can be a necessary enhancement to your chiropractic treatment. Therapy, along with regular spinal adjustments, encourages optimal correction.

Rehabilitation is an essential component of restoring structural mechanical correction of the spine in conjunction with spinal adjustments. Our office has extensive exercises and equipment to assist in neurological retraining:

We offer an excellent exercise/rehab program to aid in strengthening your muscles, while also increasing your range of motion and decreasing pain levels. Based on your needs, a specialized program will be tailored to best fit you. Our office assists patients with their rehabilitation exercises along with teaching them at home exercises.

Massage
Massage therapy can help with muscle tension, circulation, and body fluid drainage. We offer area -specific massage as well as myofascial release via percussor and/or manual techniques. Application of the percussion instrument allows the release of myofascial and cranial restrictions easily and quickly, giving profound relief to the patient.

Hormone and Mineral Balance Testing:

Many health challenges today are based in imbalances in our hormones and minerals. Saliva testing and hair analysis are two methods of testing which can be of help in solving many of today's confusing health challenges. The body is designed to be self-healing. When we give it the right "food" it is usually able to rebuild, rebalance, and heal itself.

Helpful Tips:
Pain is debilitating. Pain of any sort lowers your quality of life, preventing you from doing the things you love, affects your productivity at work, and your general well being. If you're suffering from back pain, neck pain, muscular aches, don't suffer in silence. Chiropractic treatment may be the answer.

COMPUTER OPERATOR'S PREVENTION CHECKLIST
Need we mention that prevention is highly desirable? Here are some steps computer operators can take to avoid carpal tunnel syndrome.

When typing, do not flex your wrists. Keep them straight. Use only finger movements with minimum pressure when striking keys.
Keep your keyboard dust free and generally clean for minimum keystroke pressure. .
Rather than reach for a distant key, move your entire hand in that direction.
Give your fingers, hands, and wrists a break by frequently integrating other office tasks into your typing routine.
Your typing table should be slightly higher than your elbows when your arms are relaxed at your sides.
If possible, sit in a chair with armrests and consciously let your shoulders relax. Keep them level.

Just as in other structural problems, once CTS begins to develop, early intervention is a must for avoiding permanent injury. See your chiropractic doctor at the first hint of carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms.
