Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA): a non invasive, out patient procedure for acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions such as neck pain, back pain, joint pain, chronic muscle pain and inflammation, fibromyalgia, disc pathology including herniated disks, torticollis and failed back surgery.
Family Wellness: As a chiropractor I am trained in detecting and correcting vertebral misalignments called subluxation. A subluxation is to a chiropractor as a cavity is to a dentist. A subluxation can affect anyone with a back, meaning children as well as adults. For this reason chiropractic is well suited for the whole family. It is best to detect and correct subluxation early to ensure your neck and back are at their healthiest.
Sports Injuries:Can be any sprain/strain or “overuse” syndrome as a result of athletics. These injuries, if not treated, will not heal correctly causing the joint to degenerate at an accelerated rate. The athlete is also exposed to re-injury of the same area at lower threshold. Don’t let these injuries go today; if you do you may not be able to play in the future.
Slip and Fall: A “slip and fall” or “trip and fall” is the generic term for an injury which occurs when someone slips, trips or falls as a result of a dangerous or hazardous condition on someone else’s property. It includes falls as a result of water, ice or snow, as well as abrupt changes in flooring, poor lighting or a hidden hazard, such as a gap or hard to see hole in the ground. This type of fall can cause permanent damage to your neck and back if left untreated. Auto Accidents: A motor vehicle accident, no matter how slight you may think it is, will accelerate the degenerative (breaking down) process in your neck and back. Studies indicate that even a crash at 5 mph may cause permanent injury to your neck and back if left untreated. It is important to have your neck and back examined in order to correct this condition before it progresses to the next level. Working with Pregnancy Pain: During pregnancy the following changes could result in a misaligned spine or joint:
• Protruding abdomen and increased back curve
• Pelvic changes
• Postural adaptations
Establishing pelvic balance and alignment is another reason to obtain chiropractic care during pregnancy. When the pelvis is misaligned it may reduce the amount of room available for the developing baby. This restriction is called intrauterine constraint. A misaligned pelvis may also make it difficult for the baby to get into the best possible position for delivery.
Chiropractic care during pregnancy may provide benefits for women who are pregnant. Potential benefits of chiropractic care during pregnancy include:
• Maintaining a healthier pregnancy
• Controlling symptoms of nausea
• Increasing the likelihood of full-term delivery
• Reducing the time of labor and delivery
• Relieving back, neck or joint pain
• Prevent a potential cesarean section
What about chiropractic care and breech deliveries? There is a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment which enables chiropractors to establish balance in the pregnant woman's pelvis and reduce undue stress to her uterus and supporting ligaments. This balanced state in the pelvis makes it easier for a breech baby to turn naturally. The technique is known as the Webster Technique. E-mail: spinedrdave@browardchiropractor.com
