Our Chiropractor in London uses a range of treatment modalities. Although spinal manipulation (spinal adjustment) to treat neck and back pain is the most known, there are others.  Furthermore, diagnosis of the spinal disorder is essential to the patient’s chiropractic treatment plan.

 

Chiropractic adjustment

 

The most commonly known technique. This technique has 3 key purposes. Including to restore spinal alignment, repair joint dysfunction, and ensure movement and mobility. Using hands-on thrusts with extreme precision, our chiropractor in London is able to restore spinal alignment. Thus increasing a patient’s range of motion, which are affected by misaligned joints or bones.

  • exercise and stretching
  • spinal traction
  • manual soft tissue therapy
  • diet and nutritional advise

Stretching

 

Following an injury, stretching is a key way to prevent scar tissue from forming. Even after the spinal injury has healed. It important to maintain a regular stretching program to help:

 

  • keep tissues flexible

Exercise

 

It is common for our chiropractor in London to prescribe specific strengthening exercises for their patients with back problems. These exercises can help with many things. For example, decrease pain, prevent muscle deterioration and promote joint health. Also, increase strength, stability and range of motion, and protect against new or recurring injuries. Furthermore, it is important to keep up with your exercises as prescribed. Studies show that individuals who follow their exercise instructions heal faster than those who do not.

 

Spinal traction

 

Many chiropractors use spinal traction. Moreover, this treatment helps to gently separate the vertebrae resulting in disc decompression, reduced nerve root pressure, and less pain.

 

Soft tissue therapy

 

Chiropractors use a variety of hands-on soft tissue therapies to improve the function of the soft tissues. This include muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joint capsules. These include Active Release Technique (ART), and instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (Graston Technique).
