RI Chiropractor Teams With Women & Infants

Rhode Island Chiropractor Dr. Stephen M. Estner announces his alliance with RI Women & Infants Hospital to provide prenatal chiropractic care for pregnant women. Prenatal chiropractic care is well known for its benefits to pregnancy and delivery related back pain and other complications.

Misalignment of the spine can occur in particular during pregnancy due to increased pressure on the pelvis, protruding abdomen and enhanced spinal curvature, and posture related issues. Chiropractors are all trained in caring for pregnant women. Some practitioners, however, obtain special training and certifications in advance training procedures for pregnancy and childbirth.

Regular prenatal chiropractic treatments can eliminate or reduce pelvic and spinal misalignment which can cause a decrease in the amount of room the fetus has for development and can make pre-delivery positioning difficult. Keeping the spine in optimum health, as the connector for the nervous system, helps to maintain the efficiency of all bodily functions.

Dr. Stephen M. Estner is a Rhode Island Chiropractor with offices in Pawtucket RI and Cranston RI. Dr. Estner specializes in the treatment and relief of pain associated with personal injury from auto accidents, work injury, sports injuries, upper and lower back pain, neck pain, headaches and migraines, and pregnancy related spinal pain.

Cranston RI Chiropractor Relieves Hip and Back Pain After Fall

After falling in the bathtub years ago, I suffered pain in my hips, back and numbness in my left thigh. A coworker recommended seeing a Chiropractor and gave me Dr. Estner's number to call. Dr. Estner ordered x rays and then consulted with me. By looking at the x rays he immediately started me on a series of tests, treatments and stretching exercises. After weekly treatments, 2 to 3 times a week, the numbness was dissipating, the spine was being adjusted and the hips were put back in place. This was over 7 years ago and I still see Dr. Estner for adjustments on a regular basis. Dr. Estner is very professional and the staff is very courteous and friendly. I have recommended Dr. Estner to other friends needing Chiropractic services as well. The best feeling when you walk out the door and walk 20 to 30 feet to your vehicle and you have no pain and you feel so good, so aligned. You know you found a good Doctor, the Doctor that just treated you, Dr. Estner. Luci N. --

Many people still do not know when to turn to a chiropractor for help. I am going to go over some of the easy ways to know that you are a candidate for treatment. Obviously pain is a driving force but that is not the only reason to seek care. Some of the less known reason includes loss of range of motion, leg length discrepancy and posture. I am going to help you identify each one so you can know when you need to see a chiropractor and help a friend, co-worker or family member. The first topic is range of motion. Ideal range of motion of a joint is a complete hinge from A to Z. Think of it as a door swinging along its hinge from the wall to the latch. In the case of your neck, you should be able to turn and look over each shoulder equally. If you don’t make it all the way but can push it further if you try, it is mostly likely a muscular issue . If you are as far as it can go and will not move any more, you have joint issue. Just like the door, example it will swing to the wall bu

Chronic Back and Neck Pain Common for Office and Computer Workers

Neck and Back Pain Relief for Computer and Office Workers Chronic tension, neck pain, and back pain are common side-effects for many of us who work with computers or in office positions all day. The pain originates when certain muscle groups get over-burdened by this stress and what can be done to alleviate the pain and practice whole spine comfort techniques. The act of typing, reaching for items above our heads, lifting a child or carrying groceries can all cause stress and 'hunching up' of the muscles in the upper back and neck. This stress causes these mucles to get locked into one position and eliminates the involvement of the other muscles that could offer extra support. These muscles in our shoulders are constantly jumping in to help whenever we use our upper back or neck muscles. Because of this, their constant contraction inhibits our ability to relax the shoulders enough to stop the chronic upper back and neck pain that accompanies this involuntary muscle behavi
