Chiropractic treatment has been associated with pain relief ever since it became part of the public consciousness. If you have a sore back, shoulder, or neck you head to the chiropractor for an adjustment and all-natural pain relief. But is pain the only reason to see a El Paso chiropractor? �New studies from the Journal of the American Medical Association JAMA, have shed new light on why Chiropractic is a great first choice with back pain.
The main reason people make that first visit to see a El Paso chiropractor is because they are in pain. They may have a persistent headache, lower back pain, radiating pain from the neck, sore shoulders, knees, or some other type of pain. The common denominator is pain and the need for relief. Some patients will be trying out a chiropractor as a last resort after exhausting all conventional options, and others will be looking for chiropractic treatment right from the start.
Chiropractors are experts at adjusting spinal misalignments, which is a major cause of pain throughout the body. And while many patients are drawn in to see chiropractors in El Paso because of pain, they quickly discover there is a lot more to it than just pain relief.
Chiropractic treatment has the potential to improve and eliminate scores of different health issues and related problems. Some health problems and other factors that you probably haven�t associated with chiropractic treatment before, include:
When you visit an El Paso chiropractor it is important to clearly detail why you are there and explain every health issue that has been plaguing you. Many patients don�t bother telling the chiropractor about certain health conditions because they feel chiropractic treatment is only effective for pain. Much of the time whatever you are experiencing is just a symptom of a more complex issue. Chiropractors are trained to treat causes, not just symptoms, so you may notice improvements in several different areas after treatment.
The goal of a chiropractic office is to create a comprehensive treatment plan that will restore your body back to its original balance. It might take only a few sessions, or it may take longer, but in the end you�ll be free of pain and you�ll feel like your old self. We are happy to help answer any questions that you might have.
Scope: In Texas, the scope of practice is limited to the treatment and diagnosis of musculo-skeletal system. �Texas statute and TBCE board rules define and interpret what a licensed chiropractor is allowed to do in Texas. Many chiropractors are trained to provide far more services to patients than a Texas license actually permits, but training does not drive scope. Each state has its specified scope. Specialty board training does not change Texas chiropractic�scope. Scope of Practice can only be changed by legislative action. For example, Texas Chiropractors cannot treat diseases or disorders, such as: diabetes, hypothyroidism, infertility, schizophrenia, Parkinson�s, colic, diarrhea, asthma or constipation.
