Adjusted Life Chiropractic

Year 7 and counting! 🙏🏾

(Year 7 )Yesterday marked an exciting time for me in the Chiropractic world. I have officially been in private practice for 7 years as of yesterday. Man time flies when you’re having fun! As I reflect on all that I’ve endured I can say it was worth it! The highs,the lows, the character building, the patience, the patients, all of the above was well worth it! Thank you to my wife, and my son who sacrifice daily for my commitment to do what I love. Thank you to my amazing staff who also sacrifice to make the dream work! To my practice members who are like family I thank you! Cheers to 7 years and counting!
Adjusted Life Chiropractic turns 7!

Relief is one of the most important things you can have when you get back pain. Doctors can offer you medication- but that only masks the problem. A chiropractor can offer you a solution in many cases- why not see if it will work for you?

Did you know that even a low-speed crash could still give you whiplash? Even if your car accident was under 12 mph, it’s still possible that your neck sustained enough damage to cause considerable pain down the road. Immediate chiropractic care is always best.

Great getting out serving the community again!

Ligaments and muscles act as anchor wires, helping your spine stand up straight. Ligaments, which run from the sides of the spine to the neck and the back of the pelvis, along with trunk muscles, help hold the spine in place.

Looking for a better way to treat pain? Chiropractic provides medication-free pain control by focusing on spinal realignment while taking the pressure off the nerves. This helps to reduce or eliminate the need for pain medication.

Recent medical studies have shown that chiropractic care continues to be a safer treatment option than drug care. No one wants to rely on painkillers or other pills to deal with chronic discomfort. Choose a safe and simple alternative.

Did you know that over 540,000 slip and fall accidents occur in North America every year? In fact, they’re the primary cause of emergency room visits. If you’ve had a slip or fall, then an accident injury specialist will help you recover and get back on your feet.

What’s the main difference between chiropractors and medical doctors? There is no difference in either the education or certification required. Instead, medical doctors learn how medications and surgery can impact various conditions. Chiropractors, instead, learn how to use physical solutions – adjustments, exercise, muscle therapy – to improve various conditions.

When you get injured at work, your employer will likely refer you to a clinic for your care and physical therapy afterwards. Remember, following all of the instructions you’re given is the fastest way to get through your treatment and get back to your normal schedule.

Can a chiropractor help me after I’ve been in a car accident? Actually, considering the common injuries from car wrecks – such as whiplash and back pain – a chiropractor is the best doctor to see. After all, chiropractors are experts in handling injuries to the bones, muscles, nerves and connective tissue.

Does it ever seem as though the same parts of your body keep slipping out of alignment shortly after your chiropractic appointments? Let’s talk about the strategies you can use in your everyday life that could help your alignments last longer.

Chronic back pain can affect your body both physically and emotionally. It is psychologically stressful which further makes the pain even worse. Our physical therapy has helped many people get relief from acute or chronic back pain.

When two or more vertebrae aren't functioning together properly, it is what many chiropractors refer to as a subluxation or a misalignment. These subluxations are actually joint dysfunctions that can cause you to experience pain, discomfort, or decreased mobility.

Studies suggest that 80% of us will experience back pain at some point in our lives. When that time comes, a highly trained chiropractor is your best bet of getting the relief you need.

Direct hits or strains are not the sole sources of injuries to the back. An incorrectly executed header while playing soccer can jar the spine as well. Chiropractic treatment can help take the pressure off and get you back on the ball.

With some injuries, such as bruises, the pain will eventually go away in its own as the wounds heal. Not with musculoskeletal injuries, such as whiplash. A chiropractor will be able to help find these injuries and treat them so the pain goes away.

Numbness or tingling in a limb or area can indicate inadequate bloodflow to an injured area. Too little bloodflow can prevent healing and in extreme cases can cause tissue death.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of chiropractors will grow 17% from 2014 to 2024. This is a much faster average than many other occupations.

Did you know that chiropractic care actually goes back thousands of years? Texts from both China and Greece mention spinal manipulation and moving legs and hips to relieve lower back pain. The texts date back to between 2700 BC and 1500 BC.

Mary McMillan, also known as the 'Mother of Physical Therapy’ established the first professional physical therapy association in 1921. It was named as American Woman's Physical Therapeutic Association.

Chiropractic care is safe for pregnant women and can help to ensure a healthier pregnancy. Chiropractic care also helps control pain in the joints, back, and neck caused by the body's changes during pregnancy.

Have you had a small accident? Even if your car wasn’t damage and you don’t have any pain, you should still be checked out. Serious injuries can often not cause pain for days or even weeks, and a chiropractor will be able to spot the injuries early.

One of the main reasons why chiropractic care is so effective is that chiropractors don't try to treat symptoms (although symptoms may be alleviated by adjustments). The focus is on finding and treating the root cause of any pain or discomfort so it doesn't continue to reoccur.

Chiropractic treatment of whiplash injuries is important, as this type of injury can end up causing a variety of symptoms. This includes blurred vision, headaches, shoulder pain, dizziness, reduce range of motion, and arm pain.

You know there is a whole lot of love for the chiropractor when US Open winner, Jordan Speith thanked his chiropractor in his winner's speech at his green jacket presentation!

Auto injuries can cover a wide spectrum. Sometimes the effects are immediate, while other times it can takes days or even weeks for symptoms to appear. Accident specialists are familiar with all of these injuries, and know what to look for even before there are symptoms.

While back pain can be debilitating and scary, most cases aren’t caused by serious conditions. Back pain is rarely caused by arthritis, infection, fracture, or cancer.

Have you ever heard of “pain-gating?” That happens when the body is injured in several areas at the same time. The most serious injuries take precedence and others may not be immediately detected. That is often the case after car accidents.
