Chiropractic Adjustments in Brookhaven, MS
Chiropractic care is the use of manual adjustments to re-align the spine. As a result of the activities we do all day, as well as the accumulated traumas we have experienced in our lives, we accumulate injuries called “subluxations”. Which means to say that two spinal bones are out of alignment with each other and that can affect the nerves that exit at that level of your spine.
See, the problem is that when this happens, it really puts wear and tear on your discs, which are the cushions between the vertebra, and can put pressure on your nerves. This leads to aches, pains and issues all over the body. Your nervous system controls everything in your body. When it’s not doing well, the body parts connected to those nerves suffer.
Think of it this way: your car has electrical wires that are kind of like nerves. When those wires get damaged, you’re going to see issues. Maybe your locks don’t work, or those wipers are always on. The problem is in the wires, not the locks or the wipers. Your body is very similar in that way.
Shoulder Pain/Hip
When a vertebra is out of its normal position and is pinching a nerve, you can have symptoms of arm and leg pain with numb and tingling. BUT…with shoulder or hip joints, the joints may be restricted due to injury or wear and tear. You will generally get localized pain around the joint. Our treatment improves the range of motion allowing you to reach or walk easier.
Arm and/or Leg Pain
When the vertebral joint, along with the disc, become injured long enough, due to old injuries or repetitive small injuries, the nerve may become irritated or pinched sending a signal of pain or numbness down the arm or leg. We specialize in helping our patients suffering with disc or nerve issues without drugs or surgery.
