Chiropractic Care and Pain Management

Chronic illnesses like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome and lupus can cause you to experience symptoms like muscle tightness, back pain and a number of other types of discomfort. A number of Raleigh Durham area people, unfortunately, suffer from chronic diseases. While these ailments have no known cures, there is a lot that you can do to improve your quality of life. We recommend a strong pain management program that includes chiropractic treatment.

How Can Our Chiropractor Help with Chronic Pain?

We provide chiropractic treatment which relieves pain, in part, by helping to realign the spine. This helps improve strain and pressure on tight muscles, which can reduce aches and pains in that area. It also eliminates pinched or compressed nerves, and can also help improve circulation. Often, you can feel a reduction in pain immediately after an adjustment. This relief can last for days or even weeks. Plus, we often experience pain in other parts of our bodies that is related to poor alignment in the spine. Aching feet, pounding headaches and stiff, tight neck and shoulder muscles can all result from poor alignment in your spine. Adjustments can help provide relief for this pain, as well.

We can also offer lifestyle advice, and help you create daily habits to help reduce the effects of chronic illness. For instance, proper nutrition can improve the way that you feel. We can help you develop a gentle but effective exercise program especially designed for pain relief. Identifying stressors and other triggers that can lead to flare-ups of chronic conditions is our first step to helping you develop methods to avoid future problems.

Regular adjustments can help control pain and help you feel more like yourself. Talk to us about how our Raleigh Durham chiropractic care can help you manage pain.
