CHIROPRACTIC

CHIROPRACTIC

I would think that most people are familiar with chiropractors and what they do.  There are people that have never been to one.  So, chiropractic is a natural health care system where the proper function of the nervous system will help the body self-heal.  Therapy is done to remove irritants to the nervous system to realign the musculoskeletal system.  

The most common method of treatment is by spinal manipulation and is primarily done for musculoskeletal complaints, other methods include physical therapy, lifestyle modification, and nutritional therapy.  Chiropractors believe in natural supplementation, which I will go into on other posts.

I was involved in a car accident where I was rear- ended on the freeway a number of years ago.  I was in substantial pain, meanwhile having great difficulty sitting, laying down, sleeping and turning my head left or right.  The doctor’s prescriptions of muscle relaxants had not helped at all.  One of the office workers suggested that I ago to a chiropractor.  I had a seen a chiropractor years before with very unimpressive results, so I was skeptical. 

Finally, after desperation, I went to go see the chiropractor that she suggested.  I called for an appointment and went to go see Dr. Bob Moulas D.C in Orange California.  Dr. Moulas suggested a treatment plan to get me fixed.  I noted that within a couple of weeks I was doing much better, after ten weeks I was better than before.  So, my chiropractor helped me tremendously and I continued to go for maintenance.

Many people will tell you that chiropractors are a type of alternative medicine that does not work.  I can tell you from my experience if you find a good one they can a tremendous help.  Most people go to a chiropractor due to back problems, car accidents, and sports injuries.  Anyone that has muscular dystrophy has to go for another reason.  As the muscles atrophy and are damaged, the bones get out alignment very easily.  Minor bumps and falls only aggravate the misalignment.  So, my chiropractor has been a life saver.  I would have been immobilized years ago, without his help.
