Spinal Rehabilitation

The spinal rehab in the office is used to help with stabilization and correction of spinal curves. This aspect of care involves chiropractic adjustments, postural exercises and whole body vibration with head weighting. These services are built into our care plans to increase the integrity of the spine, increase nerve function, increase range of motion, help with shock absorption and decrease vertebral subluxation. Every patient is evaluated on an individual basis and, when appropriate, a specific set of therapies are recommended in combination with the chiropractic adjustments. We utilize blocks and wedges specifically designed to change the position and alignment of the spine for long term positive outcomes. When the spine has a “bad position” or is not structurally sound (for example, scoliosis, loss of curvature, loss of balance and symmetry, or pelvic rotation) then we will inevitably see abnormal wear and tear.

​

Therapeutic exercise will restore ideal spine positioning which is important because everyday tasks and normal life activities create stress on the body and the overall spinal structure. It is important that we intervene to prevent damage from accruing which will inevitably continue to break down the spinal structure. Damage prevention is where focused therapies help decrease and reverse abnormal wear and tear. This is the reason behind our office emphasizing the regular use of our therapy room.
