Chiropractically Speaking about Fibromyalgia
There is no exact known cause of myofascial pain syndrome; however, there are a number of recognized conditions that are associated with it. Such as… physically unfit muscles, sleep disturbances and stress. The over-using or injury of a joint or muscle, along with improper body posture and an abnormal tension in a muscle structure can create this condition. Symptoms include: pain, fatigue, tension headaches, tingling and numbness and even irritable bowel. Myofascial pain syndrome will not cause deformities or permanent crippling; however, it is a very common ailment. There are millions of Americans who have been diagnosed with it. Although almost anyone can get it, many more women than men between ages 20 and 50 have this problem.
Chiropractically Speaking about Pain and Cost-Effective Management
A great deal of evidence indicates that the problem of low back pain in particular has been mismanaged on a grand scale. From over prescription of bed rest to overuse of surgical intervention and advanced imaging techniques, the cost related to low back pain, headaches and neck pain is uncontained. Manipulation, activity modification, over-the-counter medication, exercise and reassurance were recently recommended, by the U.S. Government, as the key elements of quality care model guidelines. Chiropractic physicians are specially trained in safe, effective spinal manipulation techniques.
Pain... Post-Traumatic Cervical (neck) Injuries!
Strain/sprain injuries to the cervical spine are not regarded by most medical authorities as “simple” problems which usually resolve quickly or completely. The medical literature is abundant with references documenting the fact that many of these patients suffer persistent symptomatologies that may recur for months or years and are often severe. Why suffer when you may not have to.
If conventional medical treatment for your pain has failed, seriously consider getting to the cause of your problem.

Chiropractically Speaking About... STRESS
Stress has been with us since the beginning of time. Every era has faced its share of threatening situations. Today, stress of careers, deadlines, conflicts, and the demands on our time and money, take a huge toll on our health.
The chiropractic approach to stress is to help normalize the function of your nervous system by removing interferences caused by the changes of tight muscles, shifted joints and choked nerves. Finding the "weak links" in your spine (the major communication pathway of your nervous system) and helping restore better function, can make a profound difference in your response to stress.
