At Zimmer Chiropractic, our doctors are trained and licensed to diagnose and treat muscular and joint problems that can lead to many types of symptoms. They work towards finding and correcting the cause of these problems, rather than just masking them. Below is a description of just a few of the tools we use to treat the person as a whole and keep them well. CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENT/MANIPULATION: Chiropractic uses gentle hands on techniques known as adjustments to correct painful problems that can affect any part of the body. An adjustment refers to the gentle and precise movement of a joint or joints in the body, which returns normal function to the joints and allows the body to begin the healing process. PHYSICAL THERAPY & REHAB: Dr. Burke believes that improving mobility through adjustments is important, but optimal results are achieved when adding stability and strengthening exercises into the treatment plan. For that reason, he offers rehabilitative services to strengthen regional musculature and emphasize core stability in order to prevent further injury. MASSAGE THERAPY: Our highly qualified massage therapists offer 30, 45, 60, 90 and 120 minute massages. The list below shows just a few of the many conditions that can be successfully treated by chiropractic:
• Neck Pain • Low back pain
• “Slipped” disc • Mid-back pain
• Arthritis • Headaches
• Hip pain • Sciatic pain
• Fibromyalgia • Whiplash
• Rotator Cuff pain • Muscle pulls
• Tennis Elbow • Carpal Tunnel
• Hand/Wrist pain • Ankle/Knee/Leg pain
• Shoulder pain • Plantar Faciitis
• Infantile Colic • Scoliosis
Dr. Burke is also a Certified Chiropractic Wellness Lifestyle Practitioner (CCWP) through the International Chiropractic Association. This certification equips healthcare providers to help patients make healthy lifestyle changes to achieve optimal well being and the prevention of chronic illnesses.
