What are the Effects of Subluxations on the Body?

Spinal subluxations alter normal nerve impulses and thereby cause pain and disease conditions, not only in the back, but elsewhere in the body. The nerve impulses travel along the nerves and exit the spine heading toward all of the internal organs to help control their function and different parts of the musculoskeletal system.

The following is a partial listing of conditions or symptoms which frequently result from subluxations and often respond positively to chiropractic treatment:

Allergies Arm & Hand Pain Arthritis (some forms) Asthma Back Pain, Backache, Low Back Pain Bed Wetting (Enuresis) Blood Pressure, High or Low Bronchial Conditions Carpal Tunnel Bursitis Colitis Spastic Colon Constipation Chronic Cough Diarrhea Disc Problems Diverticulitis Dizziness (Vertigo) Emphysema Cold Feet Feminine Problems Gallbladder Dysfunctions Glandular Dysfunctions Hay Fever

Headaches Hip Pain Impotence Indigestion Injuries-Auto, Home, Work Insomnia Joint Pain Kidney Dysfunctions Knee Pains Leg Pain, Cramps, Tingling, Numbness Migraines Nervousness Neuralgia Pleurisy Poor Circulation Prostate Dysfunctions Sciatica Scoliosis (functional) Shingles Shoulder Pain Sinus Problems Stiff, Painful Neck Stomach Problems Stomach Ulcers Thyroid Dysfunctions Whiplash

What Levels of Care Can I Choose From?

Depending on your condition, health care goals (feel better, get better, or stay better), finances and schedule, you may choose from different levels of care.

Acute/Relief Care - This initial treatment is intended to decrease inflammation, reduce spasms, and alleviate pain. The number of treatments necessary to accomplish this depends on your age, underlying spinal condition, condition duration and other lifestyle choices.

Corrective/Rehabilitative Care - During this level of care, we are primarily concerned with the strengthening of the soft tissue around the joint. This structural approach is designed to help prevent a relapse back into acute/relief care, and to aid in "holding" the correction in place and possibly creating structural improvements.

Maintenance or Wellness Care - Maintenance care prevents lapses of previous conditions and addresses new conditions before symptoms appear.

Will My Insurance Cover Chiropractic Care?

Many insurance plans cover Chiropractic care; however, it is difficult to break down all the insurance plans individually on this site. We currently have a great number of patients who have insurance coverage through PPOs, Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Health, Aetna, etc. which covers part or all of their care.

We are happy to call and check your insurance coverage for Chiropractic care. In the event that there is no Chiropractic coverage, we can set-up a payment plans to meet your financial and treatment needs.
