Some people think chiropractic is just a way to “pop” a joint and feel a little better. But a proper adjustment does more than relieve pain—it resets how your nervous system communicates and how your body holds itself.

That reset improves posture, movement, and even recovery. And the effects go beyond what you can feel right away.

If you’re ready for real change—not just a quick fix—call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113. We’re here to help your body reset and stay that way.

Your body is a kinetic chain, which means one joint affects another. When the spine is out of alignment—even slightly—it can change how you walk, how you stand, and how you absorb impact.

That’s why a spinal issue can show up as knee pain, hip tension, or even foot discomfort.

At Commonwealth Chiropractic, we evaluate how your whole body moves—not just where it hurts. Call 757-689-3113 to schedule a full-body check and walk out feeling better.

Sometimes, the reason you feel tight or sore isn't because your muscles are weak—it’s because they’re doing extra work to make up for misaligned joints.

When your spine isn’t moving well, your body shifts the workload to other areas, creating muscle tension and fatigue. That’s why stretching alone doesn’t always solve the problem.

Want real, lasting relief? Let’s get your spine moving right again. Call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113 and find out what your muscles are really trying to tell you.

Your spine isn’t just for movement—it also affects your rib cage and diaphragm, both of which are essential for proper breathing. If your thoracic spine (mid-back) is tight or restricted, it can reduce your ability to take full, deep breaths.

That’s why many patients report better breathing, less tightness, and even more energy after an adjustment.

If your posture is limiting your lungs, we can help you breathe easier—literally. Call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113 to schedule your next visit.

Your feet may be where the pain shows up—but the cause might be higher up. Misalignments in the pelvis, hips, or even lower back can change your gait, placing uneven stress on your ankles and arches.

If you’ve tried orthotics, stretching, or ice with no long-term relief, your foundation may not be the real issue—it could be your structure.

At Commonwealth Chiropractic, we take a full-body view to solve problems that keep coming back. Call 757-689-3113 and let’s work from the ground up.

Whether it’s chronic back pain, headaches, or joint issues—inflammation is often the common thread. But inflammation doesn’t just come from diet or injury—it also builds up when the body is out of alignment.

Restricted joints lead to poor motion, which causes inflammation, which leads to pain—a loop your body can’t escape until the mechanical issue is corrected.

That’s where we come in. At Commonwealth Chiropractic, we break the cycle and help your body heal. Call 757-689-3113 to learn more.

If your neck is stiff or painful first thing in the morning, your sleep position may be stressing your spine. Especially if you sleep on your stomach—this forces your head to turn sharply for hours at a time.

Even the best pillow can’t fix a misaligned neck or a poor sleep setup.

Chiropractic care helps realign the cervical spine, reduce tension, and improve sleep posture. Wake up feeling refreshed, not wrecked. Call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113 to get started.

That tingling in your hands, arms, or legs might seem small—but it’s your nervous system waving a red flag. Numbness often means a nerve is being compressed, usually somewhere in the spine.

Waiting it out or stretching might mask it temporarily—but the pressure remains.

At Commonwealth Chiropractic, we look beyond the symptoms to find the true source of nerve irritation. If you’re feeling numb, let’s reconnect the system. Call 757-689-3113 and let’s take a closer look.

When kids complain of joint or muscle aches, it’s easy to write it off as "just growing pains." But often, these discomforts are caused by spinal tension or postural strain—especially in active kids, gamers, or heavy backpack carriers.

Our pediatric-friendly care can help ease those growing pains and support better development, posture, and focus.

If your child is constantly sore, tired, or off-balance, let’s take a closer look. Call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113—we’re here to support healthy growth at every age.

Low back pain isn’t always about your back. Tight or misaligned hips often force your lower spine to overcompensate—especially if you sit a lot, work out hard, or had past injuries.

Chiropractic adjustments help rebalance the relationship between your hips and lumbar spine so your body can move smoothly, without pulling from the wrong places.

Tired of treating your low back and not seeing progress? It might be time to look higher—or lower. Call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113 and we’ll find the real issue.

Feeling scattered, foggy, or slow to process things? It might not just be stress or lack of sleep. Spinal misalignments can affect how your nervous system communicates, slowing down everything from mental clarity to focus and reflexes.

Restoring motion to the spine increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, and helps the brain fire more efficiently.

If you’re feeling off and can’t quite explain it, your spine could be part of the equation. Call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113—let’s check your connection.

Many older adults assume chiropractic is too aggressive for them—but that’s far from the truth. Our techniques are tailored to each individual, especially seniors who want to stay mobile, independent, and pain-free.

In fact, gentle chiropractic care can improve balance, flexibility, and even reduce the risk of falls by supporting joint mobility and nervous system function.

Aging doesn’t mean losing your freedom. Call Commonwealth Chiropractic at 757-689-3113 and let’s help you keep moving well for years to come.

Chiropractic care and physical therapy complement each other and by working together we can help speed your recovery and healing process. Chiropractic care focuses on making sure your nervous system is functioning properly and correcting any subluxations (misalignments) in the spine and joints. Physical therapy, also known as physiotherapy, concentrates on helping restore movement and function after accidents and injuries. Both chiropractic care and physical therapy are holistic treatments that work to discover the underlying source of your problem and restore movement, function, mobility, strength, and health without having to use medications or surgery.
