  1. July 25, 2017 How a Professional Chiropractor can Help Relieve Chronic Pain Have you ever experienced unbearable pain that just seem to never end? You might be suffering from chronic pain, and its effects can be debilitating if not treated as soon as possible. Chronic pain refers to pain that's beyond the point of tissue healing and pain that lasts longer than three months. Unfortunately, not all cases of chronic pain have a known cause. It's frustrating when you have chronic pain but doctors are unable to pinpoint the reason behind the pain. Whether you know the origin of your chronic pain or not, a professional chiropractor can help provide relief. Here are three ways in which a chiropractor can assist with alleviating chronic pain, so you can go Page | 1

  2. back to enjoying your life. Spinal Manipulation Inflammation and muscle tension are common symptoms of chronic pain and can intensify pain. That’s why chiropractors often conduct spinal manipulation to reduce inflammation and relax the muscles. As one of the most common techniques used by chiropractors, spinal manipulation involves gently pushing your back or turning your neck to adjust the vertebrae in your spine. Additional benefits of spinal manipulation include relieving pressure on your joints and improving nerve function. Your pain can be eliminated entirely or relieved significantly via these gentle chiropractic adjustments. Manual Therapy This involves kneading and manipulating the muscles to treat muscoloskeletal pain and disability. Joint manipulation and joint mobilization are other components of manual therapy. A manual therapy approach looks at why a muscle isn't functioning correctly and providing treatment to restore joint function. Similar to spinal manipulation, manual therapy is a hands-on type of treatment. Health care professionals who use manual therapy apply pressure to muscle tissue with their hands and manipulate joints to decrease pain. Rehabilitative Exercises Some treatment plans for chronic pain incorporate rehabilitative exercises. For those who have chronic pain resulting from an injury, rehabilitation aids the healing process as well. Rehabilitative exercises strengthen parts of your body that have been weakened from such injury. Some of the rehabilitative exercises are completed with the help of your chiropractor or physical therapist in the office. Others you can do from home. Your chiropractor or physical therapist will let you know which rehabilitative exercises are best for your situation. Chronic pain can be difficult to manage, especially when pain medications don't work well. A Page | 2
