Yes a Chiropractor can ease the spinal pain. The adjustment releases the tension on your joints caused by life's daily activities or many other injuries you may have. This release of tension helps your body to better communicate and heal naturally. So Chiropractic care can help you obtain and maintain a high state of wellness.

When a proper exam is performed prior to beginning care, chiropractic is safer than almost any other form of health care.

Both professions are great at what we do, and in some areas there is some overlap. In general, Physical Therapists work at retraining the muscles and body to function properly after an injury. Chiropractors work at retraining the neurological component through vertebral and joint adjustments to restore nerve communication throughout the body. This allows a more specific, and quicker response of your body to heal and get out of pain, and to better prevent future injury. A sport specific Chiropractor can combine the best of both worlds so that you get the best healing possible. But some patients still choose to use both professions simultaneously which can also work well.

Visiting a chiropractor can help a great deal. Especially a Sports Chiropractor. Adjusting the pelvis, low back, and hips can decrease unnecessary tension being held in your legs and low back. This will allow you to heal quickly and experience less discomfort throughout the process. As part of the process the chiropractor may also be able to recommend stretches and exercises for you to do at home to aide in your healing.

It should be a cause to see a chiropractor. Getting adjusted will help your body heal and decrease the amount and possibly the frequency of the swelling. Getting adjusted regularly helps the body heal from any injuries or daily stress, and to better prevent future pain and injury.
