Inflammation is like your body's way of sounding the alarm when it's under attack. It's a process where your immune system releases chemicals that cause swelling, redness, pain, and sometimes heat. Think of it as your body's defense squad rushing to the scene of an injury or infection to start the healing process.

Inflammation can be triggered by a bunch of different things, like infections from bacteria or viruses, injuries such as cuts or sprains, exposure to irritants or allergens, and even chronic diseases like arthritis. It's basically your body's response to anything it sees as a threat or damage.

Chiropractic care can help lower inflammation by addressing the root cause of the problem, like a misaligned spine or joint. When things are out of whack, it can lead to nerve irritation and muscle imbalances, which can trigger inflammation. Chiropractors use adjustments and other techniques to restore proper alignment and function, which can reduce inflammation and pain.

🦴3 Phases of Chiropractic Care

1️⃣Acute Care: Reduce symptoms and provide relief with mostly passive and hands on care.

2️⃣Rehabilitation Care: This is the most important and most overlooked part of truly getting better. Rehab provides increased strength to weak muscles to further balance out the spine.

3️⃣Maintenance Care: Regular adjustments help to maintain a better functioning and healthier spine. When this occurs, there is less postural strain to the joints, muscles and ligaments.

Vasopneumatic therapy, also known as intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC), offers several benefits, primarily related to improving circulation and reducing swelling. Here are some of the main advantages:

1. Improved Blood Circulation: IPC devices use inflatable cuffs to apply pressure to the limbs, which helps to squeeze veins and push blood back towards the heart. This can enhance overall blood flow, especially in individuals with poor circulation due to conditions like diabetes or peripheral artery disease.

2. Reduced Swelling (Edema): By promoting venous return and lymphatic drainage, vasopneumatic therapy can significantly reduce swelling in the legs and arms. This is particularly beneficial for people with lymphedema, post-operative edema, or venous insufficiency.

3. Prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): IPC is commonly used to prevent blood clots from forming in the deep veins, especially after surgery or during prolonged periods of immobility. The compression helps to keep blood moving, reducing the risk of clot formation.

4. Faster Healing: By improving blood flow to the affected areas, vasopneumatic therapy can accelerate the healing of wounds, ulcers, and other tissue damage. Enhanced circulation ensures that cells receive the necessary oxygen and nutrients for repair.

5. Pain Relief: The reduction in swelling and improved circulation can also lead to pain relief. This is particularly useful for managing chronic pain conditions and discomfort associated with edema.

6. Treatment of Lymphedema: IPC is a key component in the management of lymphedema, a condition characterized by chronic swelling due to lymphatic system dysfunction. Regular use of vasopneumatic devices can help to control swelling and improve quality of life.

If you are living in pain and trying to avoid having low back surgery then DRX Spinal decompression therapy could be right for you. Call our office for more information.

Spinal decompression is a type of therapy that aims to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or on one or more compressed nerve roots passing through or exiting the spinal column. It's often used as a treatment for conditions that cause chronic back, neck, and leg pain, such as herniated or bulging discs, spinal stenosis, or sciatica.
There are two main types of spinal decompression: surgical and nonsurgical.
Surgical Spinal Decompression: This is usually considered as a last resort, when conservative treatments like physical therapy and medication have not helped. The goal of the surgery is to alleviate pressure on the nerves or spinal cord by removing whatever is causing it, such as a portion of a disc or a bone spur.
Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression: This is a type of motorized traction that may help relieve back pain. It works by gently stretching the spine which changes the force and position of the spine. This change takes pressure off the spinal disks, which are gel-like cushions between the bones in your spine, by creating negative pressure in the disc.
Remember, it's important to discuss with a healthcare professional to understand the best treatment option.
