• Plantar Fasciitis
  Plantar Fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain in adults. The fascia is the band of tissue that connects your heel bone to your toes. Repeated strains to this band can cause tiny tears in it, which could bring on inflammation, weakness, irritation, pain, stiffness in the bottom of your heel, tenderness on the bottom of your feet and tightness in your arch. A lot of people notice their plantar fasciitis the most when they take their first steps after sleeping or sitting for long periods, climbing stairs or doing intense activities.

• Primary Care
  However, this new research clearly supports that seeing a chiropractor and/or engaging in light exercise can bring neck pain relief more effectively than relying on pain medications! Researchers even found that the benefits of chiropractic adjustments were still favored A YEAR LATER when comparing the differences between the spinal manipulation and medication treated groups! Moderate acute neck pain is one of the most frequent complaints prompting appointments at primary care/medical clinics and is estimated to account for millions of doctor visits per year. In some cases, pain and stiffness occurs without a known cause and there is no “standard†medical treatment. Though physical therapy, pain medication, and chiropractic have all been utilized for neck pain, until now no one had compared the benefits of each in a single study.
• Ear Infections
  Regular nervous system check-ups for your child can be some of the most important check-ups in their life.  Many people are surprised when they hear that children can be helped with chiropractic care. The truth is, chiropractic care is vital for a child’s proper development. Just as adults need a properly functioning nervous system, free of interference, so do children. You may not be aware of this but traumatic birth syndrome is actually very common and often unrecognized as the cause of numerous health problems. It’s also interesting to note that only chiropractors are properly trained to detect and correct the subtle, yet very significant misalignments and nervous system imbalances that can occur either in the womb or during a “normal” hospital birth. During the birthing process the infant’s head may be pulled or neck twisted to ease the shoulder through the birthing canal. Your child was meant to be gently pushed and guided out, not pulled! The twisting and pulling can result in spinal subluxations which can result in health complaints like colic, ear infections, and allergic reactions, even poor appetite and unexplained crying.

Gynecologists

• Pregnancy
• Labor and Delivery
  Getting a newborn adjusted after pregnancy needs to be the next step. A baby can have their first subluxation caused by the constraints while they are in-utero. Another subluxation that could happen soon after the first one is when the baby is traveling down the birth canal. When the baby finally comes out, it has had several chances to get subluxations and it’s not done yet. Many babies sustain subluxations to their heads and necks during normal delivery and they become usually more extensive with vacuum extraction when the force is too much for their little bodies to handle. When newborns get adjusted, chiropractors use only ounces of force. The force is directed into the spine and removes subluxations. Every child should be checked before health problems develop. Pregnant women need chiropractic care during pregnancy so they can prevent subluxations in themselves and to prevent subluxations in their babies during childbirth.

Radiologist

• Radiology
  One of the most important elements of chiropractic care is diagnostics. Chiropractic radiology is a tool utilized in care as a diagnostic practice to rule out pathology (such as possible tumor or fracture) and/or an additional aid to determine where to adjust the spine. Chiropractors rely on a variety of diagnostic techniques in order to fully understand what is occurring in the patient’s musculoskeletal system, and how a given treatment intervention could bring about positive results in each patient.
