Chiropractic Care
Most people believe chiropractic is only about back and neck pain, but it’s so much more. At Altoona Chiropractic Life Center, our natural and holistic care offers many benefits to improve overall well-being.
The Potential Benefits of Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic is about understanding and addressing the problems within the spine and nervous system. Using X-rays and physical examinations, we identify areas of concern, such as misalignments or changes in motion. We then explain these issues in terms the patient understands, ensuring they know what’s going on and how we can help.
By addressing misalignments and optimizing spinal health, chiropractic adjustments help alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance the body’s ability to heal naturally. By relieving discomfort from disc herniation, sciatica, or auto accident-related injuries, our chiropractor helps guide people toward a pain-free future.
Tools and Techniques for Optimal Results
We offer a range of techniques to provide targeted care for each patient. These include Diversified, the most widely used; Gonstead, a precise full-body technique; gentle Thompson Drop Table; the Palmer Package, encompassing several special methods; and the Activator® tool, a low-force adjusting instrument perfect for children and seniors.
Advanced Technology for Better Care
In addition to several techniques, we also offer
- Biokinemetrics X-rays: a digital system that provides a more specific diagnosis of spinal misalignments with computer-generated analysis. When evaluated on each visit, patient results improve, and treatment time decreases.
- Therapeutic ultrasound: uses high-frequency, inaudible sound waves for various soft tissue injuries, increasing blood flow to the region, relaxing muscle spasms, increasing metabolism, and promoting healing.
- Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS): a form of electrotherapy that uses a particular type of electrical current to stimulate specific muscles producing rhythmic contractions. Several types of EMS may be used to promote pain relief, reduce inflammation, avoid muscle atrophy, and lessen muscle spasms.
