Shoulder Pain

Often described as the most complex joint in the body, the shoulder is a ball and socket joint which allows for a huge range of motion. Unfortunately, that also means the shoulder is inherently very unstable and prone to injury. If you play any sport that requires the use of your shoulders, you know it’s important to keep them healthy and functional.

 

 

 

 

 

Knee Pain

The knee, while more stable than the shoulder, is still very prone to injury. All of your body weight is supported by your two knee joints and unfortunately a lot can go wrong. Don’t wait until your doctor tells you it’s time to get a knee replacement – let us help.

 

 

 

Sports Injuries

We help athletes and individuals of all levels quickly recover from sports related injuries. An active lifestyle often results in numerous aches and pains.  Left unchecked, these small annoyances can grow into significant injuries.  Let us help get you back to 100% so you can do those things in life that you are passionate about.

 

 

 

Pregnancy

Pregnancy, while an exciting time, is also a period of emotional and physical stress. The joint and muscle changes required of a pregnant woman can cause a lot of discomforts. Hormonal changes also can result in loss of ligamentous stability, resulting in various forms of lower back pain.  Fortunately, chiropractic treatment in not only effective, but proven to be a safe treatment option during pregnancy.

 

 

 

Arthritis

Arthritis forms when the bony parts of a joint are under stress. Joint cartilage functions much like a cushion between the adjacent bony surfaces of a joint.  Arthritis occurs when this cushion begins to wear away or thin.  Think of cartilage like a layer of protective armor. Once you strip off the armor, it’s gone for good – but we can still help you feel better!
