Chiropractor St. John

Every day thousands of Americans visit a chiropractor to relieve the pain they feel in their backs, shoulders, arms, knees, and more. The most common complaint that chiropractors hear from their patients is severe lower back pain. Many of those patients with chronic lower back pain have traveled similar paths — they have already tried traditional therapies, and some have even had surgery, only to still suffer from intense pain. A St. John chiropractor will use specific treatments that have proven to reduce back pain significantly.

Chiropractic Manipulative Therapy

At Motus Integrative Health, the chiropractors in St. John use Chiropractic Manipulative Therapy to relieve the back pain for many of their clients. Many studies have proven that chiropractic adjustment is safe and effective for reducing pain. The majority of people who visit a chiropractor for spinal adjustment say that they are delighted with the results of this type of therapy.  For over a quarter of a century, the medical community has recognized that chiropractic therapy can help patients alleviate back pain.

Many patients do not want to rely on addictive painkillers or wish to undergo surgery for back pain. A chiropractor takes care of many patients who have sciatica, which is a pinched nerve in the lower back that creates pain down the entire leg. It is excruciating and can be quite debilitating for those who suffer from it.

What Else Does a Chiropractor Do?

At your first visit, your chiropractor will give you a thorough a physical exam, verbally ask you about your health history, will take a look at your body and spine and will determine if you have abnormal movement patterns. Your chiropractor will also use clinical therapy to locate any joint or soft tissue dysfunction within the spinal column and in any extremities. Your chiropractor will evaluate the different motions of a joint to determine if this is a cause of for any restrictions in your range of movement. These tests will assist in finding where your pain is stemming and what is the best technique to use to help reduce your pain and improve your function quickly.
