Alleviating Back Pain with Chiropractic Care

Back pain is something that many people suffer from in their life. It can stem from a vigorous workout, lifting something heavy, or as a result of sleeping in a wrong position. When the pain in your back is due to a strained muscle, it will usually heal on its own in a couple of days with rest. However, if your pain lingers or if it is a result of a spinal disc injury, the condition may be more troublesome. Spinal disc injuries are quite common and can be really painful. They can become thin or herniated due to things, like arthritis and other degenerative diseases and affect your overall spinal health. If this is the case, it means that it’s time to visit Renew Chiropractic.
Finding the exact source of your back pain can be difficult and symptoms include:
·         Cramping
·         Muscle spasm
·         Buttock pain
·         Stiffness
·         Back pain
·         Spine sensitivity to pressure and touch
·         Prolonged inactivity causes pain
·         Pain lasts longer and gets worse
Depending on the cause and severity of your back pain, Dr. Jason Jumper at Renew Chiropractic may recommend a spinal adjustment and spinal manipulation of your vertebrae to alleviate your symptoms. An adjustment refers to Dr. Jason Jumper applying manipulation with their hands to vertebrae that have abnormal movement patterns or fail to function normally. The objective of this treatment is to reduce the subluxation with the goals of increasing range of motion, reducing nerve irritability and improving overall function. As a result, this enables you to get back to living your life without having to rely on painkillers.

Healing Whiplash

Experiencing a car accident is a tough situation on a number of levels and most of us tend to worry about our automobile before we take care of ourselves. What most of us don’t realize however is that our body in a way is like a car and sometimes it needs to be fine-tuned to perform the way it was designed. While no one ever wants to be in an auto accident, it is important to know how to proceed with injuries should you ever be involved in one. At Renew Chiropractic, Dr. Jason Jumper can discuss an individualized treatment plan depending on where the injury occurs.

One of the most common injuries to occur from a car accident is the damaging effect of whiplash. Whiplash occurs when a sudden, jarring movement of the head is sustained backward, forward, or even to the side. Whiplash destabilizes the spine and can cause blurred vision, neck pain, headaches, shoulder pain, arm pain, and low back pain. Since chiropractors study the care of bones, muscles, nerves and connective tissue, they are crucial to visit after an accident occurs. Early care and treatment means fully recovering. If left untreated, auto injuries can lead to other serious health problems. Depending on the problem area, Dr. Jason Jumper may recommend spinal adjustments and manipulation, massage therapy, electric muscle stimulation or therapeutic ultrasound.

If you have been injured in an auto accident, Dr. Jason Jumper of Renew Chiropractic can nurse you back to optimal health.
