You have a few options if you're looking for chiropractic care in Riverside, CA. However, Dr. David Acosta of Acosta Chiropractic gives patients more than a spinal adjustment and other treatments for back pain. His care even goes beyond neck pain and other musculoskeletal pain relief.
Uses of Chiropractic Care
At our Riverside, CA, practice, our chiropractor can help if you have general back pain from life's daily stressors. Our chiropractic specialist can also assist if you have spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, a herniated disc, arthritis, spondylitis, or another similar condition. Our practitioner can help with other causes of back pain as well, including if it's acute pain from an injury, such as a strain.
Our chiropractor can also reduce pain in people who have a neck injury or chronic condition affecting their neck. For example, if you're in a car accident and suffer from whiplash, our practitioner can help. We also assist people who have text neck or arthritis affecting the neck, among other issues.
You may also find relief from chronic migraines or headaches and various musculoskeletal problems throughout the body, like sprains, strains, and tendinitis.
How Our Chiropractor Helps
Chiropractic care may consist of spinal adjustments. Also known as a chiropractic adjustment or alignment, this particular treatment is comprised of our chiropractor manually moving the vertebrae in the back to correct misalignments, improve nervous system function, and enhance circulation, among other benefits.
Besides a chiropractic adjustment, our practitioner may recommend you undergo exercise therapy. During this treatment, our chiropractor guides you through exercises that work the injured or dysfunctional area. This physical activity will gradually increase in difficulty to help you slowly regain function and flexion in the area. The motions enhance circulation, which delivers more nutrients to the area and facilitates healing.
For some patients, our massage therapy could be beneficial. This treatment eases soreness and loosens the tissue while also encouraging blood flow to the area. Although it's not an effective treatment for curing an injury alone, it can assist in the process along with other treatments, and it's beneficial for pain relief.
Lifestyle advice is another part of our treatment. It includes ways you can better manage your pain when you're not in the office, like stretches. It often includes injury prevention tips.
