Whiplash

Whiplash is a common neck injury that occurs when the head is suddenly jerked forward and then backward, causing strain or sprain in the muscles and ligaments of the neck. Symptoms may include neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and difficulty moving the neck.

Cervical Disc Herniation

This condition involves the protrusion or rupture of one of the discs in the cervical spine, which can put pressure on nearby nerves and cause pain, numbness, or weakness in the neck, shoulders, arms, and hands.

Cervical Spondylosis

Also known as neck arthritis or cervical osteoarthritis, this condition involves the degeneration of the cervical spine's vertebrae and discs, leading to neck pain, stiffness, and decreased range of motion. Bone spurs may also develop, contributing to nerve compression and related symptoms.

Cervical Radiculopathy

This condition occurs when a nerve root in the cervical spine becomes compressed or irritated, causing pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness that radiates into the shoulder, arm, and hand. It can result from conditions such as disc herniation, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease.

Text Neck

With the widespread use of smartphones and computers, "text neck" has become increasingly common. This condition refers to the strain and discomfort that occur from prolonged periods of looking down at electronic devices, leading to neck pain, muscle tension, and postural imbalances.

Shoulder Injuries

Shoulder injuries and conditions can significantly impact daily activities and quality of life. At our chiropractic center, we specialize in providing comprehensive care for a wide range of shoulder issues, helping you find relief and restore function.

IMG_7574

Rotator Cuff Tears

The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint. Tears in these structures can occur due to overuse, trauma, or degenerative changes, resulting in pain, weakness, and limited range of motion.

Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

This condition occurs when the tendons of the rotator cuff become pinched between the bones of the shoulder, causing pain, inflammation, and reduced mobility, especially when raising the arm overhead.

Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

Frozen shoulder is characterized by stiffness, pain, and limited range of motion in the shoulder joint. It often develops gradually and can be triggered by injury, surgery, or underlying conditions such as diabetes or thyroid disorders.

Shoulder Instability

Shoulder instability can result from ligament laxity or previous dislocations, leading to feelings of looseness or "slipping" in the shoulder joint. This can increase the risk of recurrent dislocations and impair normal shoulder function.

Shoulder Arthritis

Arthritis can affect the shoulder joint, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling. Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis are common types of shoulder arthritis that can result in decreased range of motion and difficulty performing everyday tasks.

IMG_7557

Sprained Ankles

Sprains occur when ligaments in the ankle are stretched or torn, often due to sudden twists or impacts. Symptoms include pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty bearing weight on the affected ankle.

Ankle Fractures

Fractures can occur in any of the bones that make up the ankle joint, including the tibia, fibula, and talus. Fracture symptoms may include severe pain, swelling, deformity, and inability to move the ankle.

Achilles Tendinitis

This condition involves inflammation of the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. Achilles tendinitis can cause pain and stiffness in the back of the ankle, particularly during physical activity.

Ankle Arthritis

Arthritis can affect the ankle joint, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and decreased range of motion. Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis are common types of ankle arthritis.

Ankle Instability

Chronic ankle instability may result from repeated ankle sprains or ligament laxity, leading to feelings of "giving way" or instability in the ankle joint. This can increase the risk of future injuries and impair normal function.

Back Pain

Back pain comes in various forms, each with its own set of symptoms and challenges. At our chiropractic center, we understand the nuances of these different types of back pain and offer specialized care to address each one effectively.

IMG_7576

Lumbar Strain

This type of back pain typically occurs due to overuse or sudden movements, leading to strain or sprain of the muscles and ligaments in the lower back. Symptoms may include stiffness, muscle spasms, and localized pain that worsens with movement.

Herniated Disc

A herniated disc occurs when the soft inner core of a spinal disc protrudes through the tough outer layer, pressing on nearby nerves and causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the back and legs. This condition often results from age-related wear and tear or sudden trauma.

Sciatica

Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down the back of each leg. It can be caused by a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, or piriformis syndrome, resulting in sharp, shooting pain, tingling, or numbness that may extend from the buttocks to the feet.

Degenerative Disc Disease

This condition involves the gradual deterioration of the spinal discs over time, leading to chronic back pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility. It commonly occurs with aging and can be exacerbated by factors such as poor posture or repetitive stress.

Spondylolisthesis

Spondylolisthesis occurs when a vertebra slips out of place, often due to degenerative changes, congenital abnormalities, or repetitive stress. This can result in localized back pain, as well as nerve compression and related symptoms if the displaced vertebra impinges on spinal nerves.
