Chiropractic Care Specialist

What is chiropractic care?

A chiropractor is a practitioner who specializes in improving your spinal health through noninvasive, nonsurgical, hands-on adjustments, lifestyle modifications, and nutritional changes. Chiropractic care strives to relieve pain and dysfunction in your spine, and the soft tissues and nerves surrounding it, to restore function and mobility to your injured joints, muscles, and tissues.

Why is chiropractic care important?

What makes chiropractic care different from traditional medicine is that it focuses on treating the root cause of your pain, not the symptoms. In traditional medicine, doctors often prescribe medication or recommend surgical interventions to relieve pain by masking symptoms.

At Magnolia Medical Clinic, your provider identifies the source of your pain before making any treatment recommendations. This helps ensure that your treatment targets the root cause to provide lasting relief and effectively eliminate your pain without medication or surgery. 

How does chiropractic care work?

While chiropractic care focuses on your spinal health, it can help relieve headaches as well as pain in your back, neck, shoulders, arms, and legs. Stress, poor posture, and misalignments in your spine can put pressure on nearby nerves, leading to pain, inflammation, muscle tension, and even loss of mobility throughout your body.

The experienced providers at Magnolia Medical Clinic use a variety of techniques to restore alignment to your spine and reduce pressure on nearby nerves. Chiropractic care can help improve your immune function and sleep quality, strengthen your muscles, and increase flexibility to relieve pain.

Which chiropractic techniques relieve pain?

At Magnolia Medical Clinic, your provider performs many chiropractic techniques to relieve pain and improve spinal function, such as:

• Spinal adjustments
• Soft-tissue manipulation
• Myofascial release
• Spinal decompression
• Therapeutic exercises and stretching
• Massage therapy
• Ice or heat therapy
• Posture correction

In addition to chiropractic treatments, your provider evaluates your diet and lifestyle habits to determine whether modifications could improve your overall well-being and help decrease inflammation. 

Many people with joint pain can benefit from weight loss to help relieve stress on the spine and joints.
