- Headaches
- ArthritisWhile we often associate arthritis with the same kind of daily wear and tear that causes carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive motion disorders, this common ailment has more than one cause. A bacterial infection can attack the joints and make them arthritic, or an autoimmune reaction may cause the pain and swelling of rheumatoid arthritis. Most of the cases we see are osteoarthritis, a degeneration of the cartilage between bones inside a joint. This degeneration eventually restricts the motion in the joint and allows the bone ends to rub together painfully. Osteoarthritis can affect practically any articulated joint in the body, including the facet joints connecting your vertebrae.
- FibromyalgiaPatients who have been the victim of some type of personal injury such as an auto accident injury or work place injuries that have resulted in acute pain, or who are experiencing long-term pain from chronic conditions such as arthritis, sciatica, fibromyalgia and carpal tunnel syndrome have all found pain relief with this therapeutic treatment.

- Pediatric Care
- Ear InfectionsA child's spine can become quite misaligned without any awareness on their part of pain or discomfort. Children have not always developed enough awareness of their bodies to identify a subtle chronic issue developing. Even when a child is experiencing pain, they may not be able to communicate it to you and it can come across as grumpiness, acting out, or incessant crying. Issues with the spine can also be the source of many other childhood issues, such as colic, ear infections, and ADHD.

- Kidney StonesConditions such as obesity, arthritis, kidney stones, and urinary tract infections have been shown to cause symptoms of lower back pain. These are all serious issues that need to be identified and treated immediately to avoid long-term health issues. Hammond chiropractic doctors are trained to identify these issues and support you in getting the appropriate treatment. Many of these issues can have their source in spinal misalignments and respond well to chiropractic adjustments.
- Carpal Tunnel SyndromeCarpal Tunnel Syndrome is a painful condition that happens when the median nerve in your wrist is compressed by swelling, often due to an underlying medical condition. It is one of the most common conditions affecting the nerves. Traditionally there were few options to deal with this problem and those available, such as surgery and medication, were invasive and expensive. Fortunately, chiropractors are now having success treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with a more conservative and gentle approach. If you are wondering whether your wrist pain is caused by Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and want more details on the alternative treatments available from Hammond chiropractors, then read on.
