We can’t tell you how many patients we’ve treated who suffer from muscular and joint pain on a daily basis. If you’ve experienced an injury and now suffer from consistent aches, pains, sore joints, and tired muscles, it has surely put a pause on your lifestyle. You may be wondering what treatment option to opt for when injured: chiropractic or physical therapy. Well, why not combine both? Here’s what you need to know.
Too often do we treat patients who have been suffering from back, neck, and body pain for too long. At Wills Chiropractic, we can combine physical therapy and chiropractic care for patients to solve painful muscle and joint conditions. Our multi-disciplinary approach restores function and reduces pain while treating the root of the issue. Physical therapy and chiropractic care work so well together because they both aim to restore function. Physical therapy can often provide restorative treatments for muscular conditions and extremities, while chiropractic care focuses on joint and spinal dysfunctions.
When these two methods are combined, not only is faster healing promoted, but patients don’t have to worry about going to multiple appointments at different facilities. Together our chiropractors and physical therapists can address structural problems and develop custom treatment plans to protect and strengthen the injured areas.
Although there are many benefits to chiropractic care, many patients first seek us out to treat low back pain. Once a diagnosis is made, our chiropractors can adjust the skeletal structure and ensure healthy joint alignment. Once proper joint and spinal alignment is established, stability and strength are addressed. The expertise of our physical therapists comes into play to provide stretches, exercises, and joint mobilization to the area of injury or pain. Together, our team provides effective rehabilitation to heal and provide pain relief so you can get back to work and play without pain.
If you are done dealing with chronic or acute muscle or joint pain, the natural, effective, and non-addictive healthcare provided by Wills Chiropractic may be the answer. To learn more about how your local Rochelle, IL chiropractor can help, click here to request an appointment.
The holiday season is a time for joy and celebration, but it can also take its toll on you physically and mentally. If you find yourself feeling run down or experiencing back pain from sleeping in an uncomfortable guest bed, dynamic stretching can help you loosen up and enjoy the holidays to the fullest.
While many people jump to conclusions about sports injuries or poor posture, there's another culprit that often goes overlooked when it comes to back pain: dehydration. Yes, the simple act of not drinking enough water can lead to discomfort and pain in unexpected ways. If you're struggling with persistent back pain, understanding the link between hydration levels and muscle function might just provide the relief you've been searching for.
