When to See a Chiropractor

When to See a Chiropractor

For many people, seeing a chiropractor is something only done after an injury. The reality is that a chiropractor can help health and wellness even when you are feeling well. By being proactive about your health you can have better emotional and physical well-being. At Kentucky Injury & Rehab in the Shively/Dixie Highway area, we provide chiropractic care as well as rehabilitation, auto injury testing, and brain injury testing.

Headaches

Headaches are something that affects nine out of ten Americans. If you are looking for an alternative to taking medication to deal with your headaches, chiropractic care is an excellent option. Research suggests spinal manipulation and chiropractic treatment can be useful in the treatment of headaches especially those caused by stress or tension. In addition, you can get nutritional advice to avoid certain foods that may be headache triggers.

Chronic Back Pain

Chronic back pain is a common reason for visiting a chiropractor. Different methods are available for treating the pain depending on the cause. In some cases, a spinal adjustment or two will correct the problem. If the problem is deeper it may require additional forms of treatment to help with the pain. At-home exercises may be suggested to strengthen certain muscle groups to help relieve the pain.

Poor Ergonomics

Back and neck issues are common when you are working in less than ideal ergonomic conditions. Our chiropractor can offer suggestions to help you be less prone to developing problems and relieve your pain.

Accidents Happen

After an accident, you may suffer from headaches. When you have been in an accident, the headache is usually an indication that you are suffering from a different injury. Whiplash is a common injury that results from auto accidents and sports accidents. It can also be a pinched nerve, concussion, muscle contractions, or a fracture. We can provide brain injury testing to properly diagnose the injury and develop a treatment plan.
