Chiropractic treatment is an alternative approach to take care of your health. Chiropractors do not offer medicines or surgical options for your health. It completely relies on the adjustment techniques where chiropractors perform the spinal adjustment. Neck pain is another common health issue, and people generally take medicines to treat the problem. This conventional approach cannot offer real relief. A chiropractor treats your neck pain, analysing your health issues. Contact Dr Moe Pisciottano and get the best option for neck pain treatment.

How chiropractors treat your neck pain?
Chiropractors primarily use their hands for treating muscle, joint, and nerve pain by adjusting the spine. Here, the adjustment is performed by applying a controlled but sudden force on the affected area of your spine to release stress and align the area. When your muscles, joints, or ligaments move poorly because of the injury due to tissue damage or scarring, you experience pain.
Chiropractors consider your spine a whole because your spine covers your neck area, mid-back, and lower back. By adjusting the spine, a doctor treats not just symptoms of pain but also the root cause of the problem. Thereby, you will get complete relief from your health issue.
Before choosing the right treatment approach, your chiropractor analyses your health complications and goes through your medical history. He/she gathers information regarding your posture, how you walk, and your spinal condition. Your doctor will also suggest a physical examination and ask you for medical imaging, such as an X-Ray or MRI, to diagnose the right causes of your pain.
Chiropractic treatment has got advanced with different instruments like ProAdjuster, Spine Adjuster, Sigma instruments. ProAdjuster is a device that helps chiropractors concentrates on the imbalances in your nervous system due to too fluid or rigid vertebrae in your spine. Sigma instruments are a computer-assisted device that gives clearer details about the affected area and helps doctors in the treatment.
