How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work?
Cold laser therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT), photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), or red light therapy, is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-intensity lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to stimulate healing and reduce pain. This therapy works by directing specific wavelengths of light onto the skin’s surface, which penetrates into the deeper layers of tissue.

How Can a Chiropractor Help with Back Pain?

There are many different therapies and procedures a chiropractor can utilize in the treatment of back pain, from spinal adjustments and joint manipulation to personalized stretches and exercises. A chiropractor will likely start off by performing a physical evaluation to assess lower back pain symptoms and determine the cause of the pain. After determining the cause, they may use chiropractic adjustments and massage to treat back pain; this relieves pressure on the back muscles and allows them time to properly heal.

Which Type of Orthotic is Right for You?
Certain groups of people benefit from an examination performed by a healthcare professional, and a prescription for custom orthotics. These include people with diabetes who have loss of feeling in their feet, people with poor circulation, and people with severe foot deformities caused by arthritis. Studies have shown that they decrease the chance of developing an open sore that can lead to amputation.

How Does Chiropractic Care Work?

After an initial appointment to assess your condition, your chiropractor will use their clinical expertise and the best available evidence to make a diagnosis and recommend treatment options for you.

Chiropractic care is the primary method of treatment for many medical conditions, such as low back pain. For other conditions, such as pain associated with diabetes, osteoporosis, or arthritis, an inter-professional approach is recommended. So, in these situations, your chiropractor will coordinate with other healthcare professionals in your circle to support your overall treatment with chiropractic care to relieve your spine, muscle, or joint pain.

Chiropractors use various treatments, depending on their patient‘s specific needs and preferences. Common treatments include:

- Manual, ’hands-on‘ therapy.
- Soft tissue therapy.
- Electronic modalities, such as therapeutic ultrasound and cold laser therapy.
- Customized, therapeutic exercise programs.
- Self-management tools and techniques (like positions for relief or coping strategies for pain)
- Advice and education.

How Do Chiropractors Treat Pain?
Chiropractors use a variety of different approaches, techniques, and therapies to help treat pain; the treatments they use depend on the results of the initial examination. They may use any of the following:

- Chiropractic Adjustments - Chiropractic adjustments are the first-line treatment used by chiropractors and involve the gentle realignment of the bones and muscles to promote proper posture and function.
- Joint Manipulation - Joint manipulation goes hand-in-hand with chiropractic adjustments and focuses on improving joint health by manipulating the different parts to enhance mobility and range of motion.
- Massage Therapy - Massaging the muscles of the back can help to remediate a number of problems associated with muscle tension and tightness.
- Kinesio-Taping - Kinesiology tape is a specialized adhesive that helps to prevent muscle strains and pulls; it can also be used to facilitate the healing process by limiting excess muscle movements.
- Acupuncture - Practiced for thousands of years, acupuncture dates back to ancient China and focuses on releasing stagnated energy to improve overall health, minimize muscle tension, reduce pain, and improve circulation.

What Are Custom Orthotics and Why Do We Recommend Them?
Custom-molded orthotics are individually designed shoe inserts or ankle braces. Orthotic devices like these are frequently used to treat various conditions of the foot and ankle. They are often very effective in relieving common complaints.

We recommend orthotics for feet and ankle orthotics for several reasons, but most often:

- Aligning and supporting the foot or ankle
- Preventing, correcting or accommodating foot deformities
- Improving the overall function of the foot or ankle

What Injuries Do Chiropractors Treat?
Chiropractors can treat a wide range of injuries affecting the musculoskeletal system, including muscle strains, ligament sprains, tendon ruptures, and generalized soft tissue pain. The most commonly treated injuries include:

- Neck and Lower Back Pain - Neck and back pain are the most common conditions associated with chiropractic care and are often the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about the chiropractor.

- Scoliosis - Characterized by an abnormal lateral (sideways) curvature of the spine, scoliosis can affect people of all ages, from childhood to advanced age.

- Sciatica - Another type of pain commonly treated by chiropractors, sciatica is not actually a condition, but rather a collection of symptoms caused by another condition, such as a herniated disc.

- Headaches and Migraines - While it may not seem obvious at first, chiropractors can treat headaches and migraines as these conditions are intrinsically connected to the musculoskeletal system.

What Is Chiropractic Care?

Chiropractic is a licensed healthcare profession that emphasizes the body’s ability to heal itself. Treatment typically involves manual therapy, often including spinal manipulation. Other forms of treatment, such as exercise and nutritional counseling, may be used as well.

What Chiropractors Do

Chiropractors approach patient care in a manner similar to that used in conventional medicine. They interview the patient, obtain a detailed health history, perform an examination, do tests, and develop a working diagnosis. They then develop a management plan, start treatment, and monitor the patient’s progress. Chiropractors often treat problems related to the musculoskeletal system.

The manual treatment methods used by chiropractors range from stretching and sustained pressure to specific joint manipulations, which are usually delivered by hand and involve a quick and gentle thrust. The purpose of the manipulations is to improve joint motion and function. Manipulations are most commonly done on the spine, but other parts of the body may also be treated in this way.
