How does it work? The 3 main causes of joint dysfunction are mechanical, chemical, and mental. Mechanical causes are referred to as micro or macro trauma. Micro trauma can also be called repetitive stress injury. Sitting with poor posture at a desk and typing all day can cause problems such as carpal tunnel or neck, upper back, or low back pain. Macro trauma refers to pain due to trauma to the body, such as a fall, a break, or a car crash. Both forms of mechanical causes of joint dysfunction can benefit immensely from chiropractic care. Another cause of joint dysfunction is due to the chemical effects on joint function and the body as a whole. Smoking, heavy drinking, and poor diet can create chemical imbalances in the body thus creating stress and structural imbalance.Mental or emotional stress from everyday living when not dealt with or "let go of" in a healthy manner over a period of time create stuck negative energy which also creates structural imbalances. Dr. Floro specializes in techniques to identify whether there are structural- chemical ( nutritional deficiencies are also in the category of chemical stress) or mental / emotional components to your joint/back pain or health issues. Unresolved pain or health issues is commonly from a need to address additional components either structure- chemical- mental /emotional which may have not been previously assessed. The customized care you receive from your chiropractor can help to improve your posture, muscle balance and mobility. It can also help restore the integrity of your nervous system and reduce or eliminate pain and health issues relating to nerve irritation. Oftentimes positive changes are noticed in the first few visits, so you can get back on the road to recovery and feeling great! |
