Natural Chiropractic Therapies Improve Physical and Financial Health
Healing Through the Action of Hands

Got neck or back pain? You’re not alone. More than 80 percent of Americans, at some point in their lives, will suffer from some type of lower back or neck pain. And, as the cost of healthcare continues to soar, alternative health solutions are becoming more mainstream.

Lower back pain alone is one of the most common causes of time lost on the job in the U.S. And, chiropractic treatments lead the way when it comes to alternative solutions. Not only can alternative therapies improve your physical well being, they can boost your bank account as well.

According to the National Institutes of Health, Americans spend at least 50 billion a year in treatment for low back pain. So, why not give alternative health solutions a chance? You have nothing to lose -- and more than likely -- something to gain.

Why Chiropractic?

First, let’s define chiropractic. The word itself derives from the combination of two Greek words: “cheiris” meaning hands; and “praxis” meaning action. The ancient Greeks used these words to describe treatment involving hands.

Chiropractic offers natural, drug free, and non-surgical choices for back and neck pain. It does not simply offer a temporary relief to pain, but it also works to resolve or ameliorate the pain and the functionality of impairments.

Chiropractic also no longer has any negative stigmatisms of earlier days. Today, the chiropractic profession is recognized and licensed, worldwide. There are currently 22 colleges that graduate educated, compassionate and talented healers.

Insurance companies and many government programs also reimburse for chiropractic care. It’s come a long way since 1895.

Get Your Atlas in Line

The “Atlas” refers to your uppermost cervical vertebrae (C1). And, by keeping it in line with the rest of the spine, this can help people to achieve drug-free pain relief. The natural approach that chiropractic takes diverts from the conventional medical path.

Conventional medicine relies on the introduction of drugs into the patient’s blood stream while chiropractic therapies help to restore the body’s nerve system by reducing subluxations (misalignments) and correcting these misaligned vertebrae. This restoration is achieved through the use of an advanced chiropractic specialty know as Atlas Orthogonality.

Atlas Orthogonality uses special x-ray views to determine the extent and direction of spinal misalignment. Information from the x-rays determines how the doctor will adjust the spinal segment. This therapy is an excellent choice for those who seek a non- surgical and drug-free solution to pain. It will help the body to heal itself – the fundamental mission of chiropractic.

Other Solutions Available

While Atlas Orthogonality is one state-of-the-art practice, there are other solutions available as well. For instance, the chiropractic therapy of spinal decompression can treat leg pain, lower back pain, neck pain, scoliosis, spinal facet syndrome, and spinal stenosis. This type of therapy is performed on a spinal decompression table. Over the years, it has evolved into a computer-assisted technology that is one of the most advanced treatments available today.

One table used by the chiropractic profession is the ATX 2 (Auto Trax 2 Spinal Decompression table).This table is superior in its capabilities because it uses a system called RAMP (reflex-auto-monitoring-program). This state-of-the-art microprocessor controls and assists the chiropractic professional with superior patient placement for optimal decompression results.

Chiropractic Therapy Treats Body and Budget

The bottom line is to achieve the best health possible. And, achieving optimal health does not need to be expensive, dangerous or painful. Consulting with a chiropractor about non-invasive treatments and drug-free alternatives can result in pain reduction to your body and your budget.

So, keep in mind that it is possible to get pain-free results with the proper chiropractic approach. Just remember, prior to seeking any new treatment, seek the advice of a medical professional who can explain your options.
