If you are in pain or feeling regular discomfort, your first instinct may be to call your primary health care provider in order to get some quick relief from your ailment. While you may get a prescription or information on surgery options, this might not be the best choice for you. At Health First Chiropractic Clinic in Detroit, MI, we are here to offer an alternative solution. We work with all of our patients in order to help them find the right solutions to their health concerns. That's why we offer a variety of services and techniques which make each of our patients active participants in their own treatment and recovery, whether they are suffering from a sore neck, shin splints, back pain, headaches, or a host of other ailments. Here is some of what you can expect from the services and techniques available from our chiropractor.
Chiropractic Care
We start our care plan with a Health Risk Assessment which helps us identify the proper recommendations to make to give you better control of your health by determining your fitness level, nutritional habits, and a basic assessment of mental health. Deficiencies in any of these areas can manifest as pain within the body, so it is important to get the best understanding possible in order to give you the treatment you deserve.
Spinal Decompression
We perform non-surgical spinal decompression to help our patients with conditions like bulging or herniated discs. Spinal decompression gently stretches the spine in order to open up intervertebral spaces. Once these spaces are created, nutrients and fluids previously restricted from these areas are allowed back in to properly heal the spine.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy penetrates deep into the body’s tissues and begins a regenerative process known as photobiomodulation. Cold laser therapy has been proven effective in reducing inflammation and pain.
Lifestyle and Nutrition Guidance
Having the right balance of vitamins and other supplements can make a big difference on your ability to keep various aches and pains at bay, or at least under control. Even at an optimal weight, aches and pains may occur, but being overweight taxes the system and increases the challenges your body must endure. At Health First Chiropractic Clinic we can provide the guidance you need to get you where you want to be.
Corrective Exercises and Posture Evaluation
Sometimes, pain relief is as easy as correcting your posture. Other times, it may take a little more investigation and work on your part in order to give your body the support it needs to limit pain and discomfort.
Taking advantage of chiropractic services means making a commitment to your own body and well-being, but in the long run, it is worth the effort and can help you live a life with much less pain.
