Chiropractic Treatment Benefits

Making use of the body's natural ability to heal itself, is the foundation for holistic medicine approaches. Chiropractic treatments, are designed to re-establish this holistic relationship between the spine and the rest of the body.

The benefits of chiropractic treatment cover every aspect of a healthy body and lifestyle. Most people are familiar with chiropractic care for things like personal injuries from automobile accidents, back and neck pain, sports related injuries, spinal injuries and low back pain.

However, some lesser known beneficial effects of chiropractic care also include relief from headaches and allergies, improved blood circulation, increased flexibility and range of motion, and the relief of very severe and sustained pain in various parts of the body.

In addition, as with all holistic practices, chiropractic care treats the whole body. Although the treatments may work directly upon the musculoskeletal system, the effects may be felt in every area internally as well, including the curing or relief of digestive issues, a strengthening of the immune system, providing energy, helping with delivery during pregnancy as well as pregnancy related pains and issues, prevention of developmental abilities in small children and infants, and lessen or eliminate childhood issues like ear infections, bed-wetting or asthma.

Many people seek the advice and treatment of their chiropractic physician before even seeing their medical doctor, as it is well documented that chiropractic treatments can alleviate almost all of the body's ailments.

Ideal range of motion of a joint is a complete hinge from A to Z

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...

Misconceptions about the Chiropractic Profession

There are many misconceptions about the chiropractic profession and the scope of practice, particularly in Rhode Island.  It is important for the legal community to have a clear understanding of this topic as questions will arise during statements, deposition, and even a trial.  To begin, chiropractors in Rhode Island are considered physicians and are allowed to perform all medical procedures with the exception of prescribing medications and major surgery.  As a chiropractic physician, I can order any tests such as MRI, CT scan, and x-rays without primary care involvement.  When there are procedures that may be questionable whether or not the chiropractor should perform, if it is not typically taught in an accredited college, often the question will be presented to the Board of Chiropractic Examiners.  The Board of Chiropractic Examiners is comprised of three chiropractic physicians, on which I currently serve as Chairman, two public members, all of whom ac...

Chiropractors seek to care for the general wellness of a person as well as prevention from diseases. We check every patient thoroughly to know the status of their health. Other tests and examinations like x-rays might also be conducted to know what exactly the issue is. Once the chiropractor diagnoses, he develops a treatment plan for the patient. We provide exercise recommendations, nutrition advice, and lifestyle counseling and so on. W...
