San Diego Chiropractor

As a San Diego Chiropractor, I counsel many individuals who come to my clinic who want to lose weight. I know how hard it can be, and I also know how important it is to lose those extra pounds. What’s a few extra pounds? Over time, those pounds can add up to a substantial number of health problems from heart and pulmonary diseases and diabetes to back challenges and joint degeneration. Even a few additional pounds put harmful stress on organs, like the heart, as well as on joints in the low back, hips, and knees. A shocking 62% of men and women in America are overweight or obese, according to recent studies. That is a very significant figure and a truly gigantic national health issue (no pun intended).

It is likely no surprise to you to learn that the human body was not designed to transport additional poundage in the form of body fat. A mere excess of 20 or 30 pounds can literally overload and overburden the joints and muscles of the body. Added weight in the abdominal region, for instance, requires that the body compensate (counterbalance the weight) by tilting the pelvis forward. This shift creates compression in the joints of the low back. Joint compression inhibits nerve activity and causes painful inflammation. A larger percentage of people that have a “spare tire”feel substantical pain in their low back caused by  an impingement of the sciatic nerve or spinal misalignments that impinge nerves as a result of weight-bearing stresses. If left untreated, misaligned vertebra not only continue to irritate the degenerative changes that have already taken place, but can develop into new arthritic changes in the spine in the future.

Here are the ways in which chiropractic treatment can help. To begin with the obvious, a “normal” body weight is necessary in order for the musculoskeletal system to perform in the way it is meant to. That said, in addition, chiropractic adjustments relieve nerve impingements in the vertebral column and help to get motion back into the joints of the musculoskeletal system, such as in the low back, hips, and knees. And, obviously exercise and physical activity is a lot easier, and healthier for the body, when the spine is in alignment and the joints have good motion. The added benefit of exercise the, in addition to helping with weight reduction, it can actually reduce degenerative changes as the body ages.

It is always a good idea to discuss diet and exercise options with a healthcare professional, like your chiropractor. In addition to treating men and women suffering from back pain and joint inflammation, chiropractors offer proficient suggestions on the kinds of lifestyle modifications that can help you to stay healthier, more vigorous, and more active through the years. Arthritis and immobility due to aging don’t have to be unavoidable. The structure of the human body is intended to carry a person through an entire lifetime of pain-free movement.

So, if those extra few pounds have started to add up to a lot of pain, as your chiropractor in San Diego and someone who cares deeply about your overall health, I can help. Make an appointment today!

But, occasionally a person’s allergic reactions can progress from just plain irritating to dangerous and life-threatening as the air passageway becomes constricted and breathing becomes difficult. This progression of symptoms can commonly generate a state of panic.

In fact, if you are one of the many individuals who have allergies, it may even seem to you that, from time to time, your environment is a pretty antagonistic place and that the world around you is, in deed, out to get you!

Why does your body react, or rather overreact, to the environment with such severity while other individuals appear to be unaffected? It’s a great question. The answer is because some individuals, like you, have a hyperactive immune system that virtually “freaks out” when you are confronted with common substances such as pollen, dander, shellfish, or nuts.

Can your Ventura Chiropractor help with your allergy symptoms? You may be surprised by the answer. Even though chiropractic care doesn’t treat allergies, a lot of people notice that they experience ease from their allergy symptoms after getting chiropractic adjustments.

The reason for this is because chiropractic manipulation affects the whole nervous system, including the autoimmune system. When there’s an impedance in the nervous system, along with other problems, the autoimmune system, whose responsibility it is to assist you in adapting and responding appropriately to your environment, can become under-active or overactive. The dysfunction is the latter (overactive) when it comes to your allergies.

Since chiropractic manipulations lessen or take away disturbances in the nervous system and bring back balance and harmony to the body, the treatments provide that same balance and harmony to the auto-immune system as well. A healthy immune system reacts appropriately to supposed allergens in the environment.

So, as pointed out above, your chiropractor doesn’t directly treat allergies. You could say, rather, that a decrease in your allergies is merely the by-product of a well-adjusted nervous system. Make an appointment, today, to see your Ventura Chiropractor and get back into harmony with your environment.

Wichita Chiropractor

I am aware from more than twenty years experience as a Chiropractor in Wichita treating patients suffering from the pain of sciatica that the condition can be extremely debilitating. Sciatica sufferers are sadly all too familiar with the deep radiating pain that accompanies their waking hours each day and restricts almost all of their daily activities.

Are you wondering if your low back pain could be caused by sciatica? You are more than likely experiencing sciatica if your pain travels from your low back, through your buttock(s), down the large sciatic nerve in the back of your leg(s), and possibly radiates into your knee(s). Moreover, sitting, as well as motion, can be painful. Frequently lying down will decrease, or occasionally even temporarily eliminate the pain. But, it’s important for you to know that sciatica will not go away without proper treatment.

Radiculopathy

A radiculopathy is a medical term used to describe a condition where a disc has protruded from its natural position in the vertebral column and is causing pressure on the radicular nerve (nerve root) that forms part of the sciatic nerve in the lower back. Such pressure can cause excruciating pain.

Added pressure on the intervertebral discs, as well as imbalances in the muscles encompassing the spine, can take place during and after extended sitting, especially in an improper position. Generally, a particular event or injury doesn’t cause sciatica, more often sciatica tends to progress over time as a consequence of everyday wear and tear on the vertebrae of the lower spine. After a while the lower spine can lose its ability to function normally during everyday stresses.

When this takes place, the intervertebral disc incurs small fissures or cracks that then allow the soft nucleus to protrude the disc outward. Pain is created as the disc pushes on sensitive tissues. This occurrence is often called a ruptured, or slipped, disc. Sciatica is the result of the disc pressing on the spinal nerve. With chiropractic manipulation and management, which often includes postural exercises, almost all disc challenges, including sciatica, can be totally alleviated.

Periformis Syndrome

Periformis syndrome is another cause of sciatic pain. Periformis syndrome develops when the periformis muscle, for whatever reason, goes into spasm and irritates the sciatic nerve, is superficial to the nerve In combination with chiropractic manipulation, this particular sciatica can be significantly relieved by sciatica stretches that your chiropractor will advise you on.

It is vital for you to seek chiropractic attention if you are experiencing sciatic pain. If you are in the Wichita area, as your Wichita Chiropractor, I invite you to come in to see if I can get you out of pain and help you to get your life back!

Cincinnati Chiropractor

At my Cincinnati Chiropractic clinic I treat a lot of seniors who are challenged by balance problems. In fact, 9% of adults, aged 65 and older, have episodes of dizziness, “wooziness,” and other balance-related problems. Good balance is crucial, of course, in helping seniors in staying independent and to avoid falling down and incurring injuries that are frequently very serious or even fatal. But, did you know that falls are the cause of a large percentage of work injuries for workers under 65 years of age, including workers in their twenties and thirties? That’s right! No one is “invulnerable” to balance challenges, no matter what their age may be. In fact, those who work at “dangerous heights” like construction workers, roofers, oil platform employees, windows cleaners, or anywhere else where a ladder is involved are far more vulnerable to serious injury if their balance is “off.”

The chief action of good balance is to aid us in managing and maintaining our body position, whether standing still or moving, and whether on the ground or high up on a platform. Good balance helps us to walk without faltering, arise from a sitting position without tottering, and to climb stairs without missing a step. To sum it up, then, good balance is extremely important to our health and well-being.

What may be shocking to you is that you could have a balance abnormality without being aware of how significant it is. Sometimes a person may be able to “shake off” a dizzy feeling and the feeling may not come back for a while. The problem is that when precipitous dizziness happens at a decisive time, it is too late to shake it off and a fall is most likely inevitable.

When you have the feeling that you, individually, are spinning or that objects around you are moving, it is called “vertigo.” About forty percent of individuals in the U.S. will have at least one episode of dizziness that is serious enough to seek out help from a health professional, like your Chiropractor at  Cincinnati Chiropractic . But, if you work at any of the jobs listed above, having a chiropractor check your balance before an episode of dizziness, make adjustments if necessary, and then aid you in maintaining good balance, may save you from serious injury or worse.

Balance disorders are dangerous at any age. It is essential for you to be examined and treated without delay if you believe that you may have a possible balance disorder. To help to make your decision easier if you can answer “yes” to any of the following questions, even if the experience is seldom or infrequent, you should discuss the symptom(s) with a chiropractor as soon as possible:

• Have you experienced a feeling of being “unsteady?”

• Has the room seemed to spin around you?

• Has there ever a time when you felt as if you were moving when you knew you were standing still?

• Have you lost your balance and/or fallen down?

• Have you ever felt as if you were falling?

• Has your vision ever become “blurred?”

• Have you ever felt disoriented, or lost a sense of time, place or identity?

As discussed above, balance problems are not isolated to a particular age group. Our falling down is an ever-present possibility from the time we learn to walk until we take our final step All the more reason to have your balance checked if you work in a job that makes your falling down a “critical” issue. Don’t wait until it’s too late! If you’re in the area, give your Cincinnati Chiropractor a call today. I can help!

For an example, arthritis. Most of us would agree that, barring pharmaceuticals, traditional medicine fails to attend to this age-related challenge. What is the basis for such a limited approach? It is because most medical doctors treat the symptoms of arthritis. Chiropractic care, in contrast, not only helps to relieve the pain of arthritis, naturally, without drugs, but it looks for the origin of the problem and eliminates it.  Chiropractors, like your Chiropractor in Santa Clara, have been caring for men and women suffering from pain caused by arthritis, and other age-related conditions, for over a hundred years.

Repetitive stresses, years of incorrect gait and incorrect posture, and lack of beneficial movement produce degeneration of various joints over time and create the arthritic changes the body experiences as you get older. Chiropractic adjustments bring back motion into your joints and decrease any vertebral misalignments that may be creating irritation and restriction. In addition to causing arthritic changes in the spine and increasing pain, did you know that misaligned vertebra can also lower your resistance and immunity? It’s true, and this might be one of the reasons why it may seem to you that as you get older you develop more health problems and that it often takes longer for you to feel better again. According to research done on men and women, those who received regular chiropractic care stayed healthier. In fact, you could say that, as you get older, chiropractic care is good for what ails you!

Chiropractors are highly knowledgeable when it comes to the health of the musculoskeletal system, from the small, growing frame of an infant to the full-grown body of an aging adult.  Your chiropractor is well aware of the body’s aging process and has exceptional observational and diagnostic skills that assist in finding spinal misalignments and joint problems. In fact, a chiropractic examination can often reveal certain age-related changes before they’ve had a chance to create noticeable pain. Moreover, your Chiropractor in Santa Clara can evaluate your posture and analyze your gait to identify inappropriate patterns that could create more arthritic changes in the future.

So, if you have been feeling your age lately, but you’d like to feel a whole lot better, call your Santa Clara Chiropractor today!

Corona Chiropractor

When it comes to hip pain relief, your chiropractor in Corona offers potent non-invasive, drug-free treatment. Hopefully, it goes without saying that surgery should be a last resort whenever possible. So, before you decide on hip surgery, consider the following questions: Does hip pain keep you up at night and make a good night’s sleep unattainable? When you get out of bed in the morning, and/or when you get out of your car, are you stiff and do you find it difficult at first to move your legs? Do you feel pain in one or both hips when you cross your legs or rotate or twist your hips? If these symptoms sound familiar, it is likely that you have imbalances and alignment problems in your lower extremities that are not only causing your hip pain, but can over time lead to osteoarthritis in your hips if not treated. The good news is that chiropractic treatment can help whether or not degenerative changes have already started!

You may be getting older and it may be true that your hip joints aren’t what they used to be. Nonetheless, are you aware that your hip pain (and related problems), which normally are thought to be age-related degenerative conditions, may not actually be created by osteoarthritis? That’s right. In fact, instead of being the root cause of your condition, osteoarthritis of the hip joint is more often than not the outcome of a previous injury (or injuries) to your hips.

Frequently, hip problems have to do with asymmetry or imbalance when you are in motion, as in the case of walking. If you “pronate” when you walk, like a duck, with your toes pointing away from your body, sooner or later you will develop pain in your hips as a result of the asymmetrical tension on your hip joints and your body’s efforts to compensate. Thankfully, you can make changes in your gait pattern at any age, and your chiropractor in Corona can show you how to do it.

In addition, you may have developed gait changes because of an ankle sprain or knee strain, and since “the knee bone’s connected to the hip bone,” these biomechanical changes generate pain in the hip(s). Of course, if not remedied, your hip joints will suffer further consequences, i.e, wear and tear that causes degenerative changes.

Other situations that can occasionally impact the hip joints are starting a new job or beginning a new sport that necessitates your moving your body in atypical ways. Also, ferrying a child (or grandchild) on one hip can generate hip pain. Even your sitting position or driving for long periods of time on a regular basis can cause hip injury and pain.

Isn’t it good to know that not every pain is caused by “old age,” even though we may experience more pain due to the progressive activity of untreated injuries.

Your chiropractor in Corona will treat our hip problem directly, and as part of your chiropractic management will recommend individualized rehabilitative exercises that include gentle muscle stretching and strengthening, and will also study your gait and may recommend simple pattern changes.

Your hip pain won’t vanish on its own. Hip pain is a symptom letting you know that something needs correcting. If ignored, more than likely that at some point you will require that hip replacement surgery. So, don’t put off until tomorrow, what truly needs to be done today. Your Corona Chiropractor can get you out of pain, get your body back into balance, and help you get to back to enjoying your life again!

Sacramento Chiropractor

With any sort of sport, injuries are not uncommon. You can frequently avoid getting injured in a particular sport by determining what injury is likely to occur, and then do whatever it takes to avoid it. Sadly, sports injuries can’t always be avoided. As a result, it’s beneficial to take conscientious care of your body to make getting injured less likely, or less traumatic.   The most valuable thing that you can do is to be certain that you have an appropriate fitness level before starting to play a sport, such as golf. By perpetuating a healthy lifestyle, keeping your joints mobile and your muscles limber, warming and stretching your body before activity, using proper form and good postures while actively playing, and allowing yourself sufficient cool down and relaxation time, you will probably keep your body safe from injury.

Golf injuries don’t only happen to amateurs. Approximately, one-third of pro golfers play injured at any given time. Fortunately, general good health and fitness can reduce how many injuries you may incur and could actually prevent them altogether.

It is vital for you to have good body strength in the muscle zones most used during golf. However, before you try to build muscle strength, it’s prudent to make certain your spine is aligned and has good mobility. A successful golf swing relies on your spine’s ability to efficiently rotate adequately. Back injuries are the most common type of injuries experienced by golfers. Your Sacramento chiropractor will establish that your spine is in healthy alignment and that there is efficient movement of the vertebrae. Chiropractic treatment can go a long way in helping you to avert back injury.

It’s time to strengthen once you’re “straightened.” A safe, injury-free day on the green is contingent upon your being prepared for your golf game. You can warm up your muscles and make muscle strain less likely by doing golf stretching and flexibility exercises. Flexibility in all parts of the body can be escalated fairly quickly as the result of full body range of motion (ROM) exercises. Additionally, elastic band conditioning affords functional golf range of motion benefits and can build needed energy in the shoulders, hips and deep muscles of the core. Since elastic band training supplies the dynamic resistance that general weight lifting does not, sports professionals, like your chiropractor, are adding them to their golf conditioning programs.

Besides back injuries, many golfers have painful “Golfer’s Elbow.” There is a minute difference between golfer’s elbow and tennis elbow despite the fact that they are almost the same. Tennis elbow impinges the outside of the upper arm whereas golfer’s elbow disturbs the inner arm. Golfer’s elbow, like tennis elbow, can result from a single violent action, such as (in golf) striking the mat at the driving range or thrusting down on a hard fairway surface. Repetitive stress from smaller shocks, however, is most often the cause. Furthermore, it can happen to those who abruptly start playing too much golf. For instance, if individuals that usually play golf once or twice a month decide to play in a tournament, they are potentially at risk for developing the injury.

Golf makes distinctive demands on our body. The game is usually longer than the majority of other sports and that can result in fatigue. Poor posture and lack of coordination are frequently the consequences of a fatigued body. These two factors combined can cause an assortment of injuries. Additionally, the shoulder muscles are susceptible to injury because of the repetitive swinging of the golf clubs. Just as attention should be given to make certain that your muscles are stretched and warmed up before starting your golf game, be sure that you rest your body appropriately between games.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is, sometimes, a surprising injury connected with golf. But, as it a problem that occurs as the result of repetitive stress, many games of golf played over several months repetitively may produce this injury. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can be a an extremely damaging injury causing incapacitation and sometimes necessitating surgery. However, if a health professional, such as your chiropractor, discovers it at an early stage, chiropractic management and, frequently, the use of a brace will relieve the problem.

The majority of golfers appear to think that injuries are merely an unavoidable part of a golfer’s life. But, a healthy, mobile spine, dedicated preparation, proper exercise and muscle conditioning, attaining and maintaining a a suitable fitness level, and reasonable rest and recuperation after your game is over, can help to make injuries a good deal less a part of your golfing experience.

As you can see from the list of complaints above, there are quite a few musculoskeletal challenges that can, and often do, take place as we age, however back pain is one of the most prevalent. Age-related back pain is generally produced by a degenerative disorder known as Spondylosis (spine osteoarthritis).

Spondylosis is caused by prolonged erosion and weight-bearing force on the spine that eventually does harm to the discs, joints, and surrounding ligaments. The area of the body and rate of the degenerative process of spondylosis varies from person to person. The areas likely to be affected are the cervical (neck), thoriacic (mid-back), or lumbar (low back). Spondylosis symptoms are individual as well, depending on the severity of degeneration, and can extend from low-amplitude pain and numbness to extreme sensory loss and muscular atrophy.

Calcium is deposited in the tissues around the vertebrae due to repetitive stresses that adversely affect the cartilage surrounding the joints These calcific deposits, known as bone spurs, can constrict adjacent nerves, blood vessels and soft tissue. This kind of compression is at the root of Spondylosis.

Fortunately, whether or not you have developed spondylosis, regular chiropractic care and overall chiropractic management can noticably delay age-related degeneration of your spine. No, “you can’t un-ring a bell” or “turn back the hands of time,” but it’s never too late to give your spine the attention it deserves. Chiropractors are experts when it comes to treatment of the spine. See your Santa Barbara Chiropractor today, for the health of your spine.

Oxnard Chiropractor

Your Oxnard Chiropractor, Dr.Donald Bolt, knows that allergic reactions can make your everyday activities  unpleasant. A stroll in the park, a yarn ball toss with Fluffy, a shrimp repast, or even something as small as a nut will sometimes produce such miserable discomforts as itchy eyes, a runny nose, sneezing, or a skin rash.

But, occasionally a sufferer’s allergic reactions can go from simply bothersome to critical and even life-threatening as the air passageway starts to constrict and inhaling and exhaling becomes strained. Such progression of difficulties can typically generate a state of panic plus a trip to the emergency room.

Allergies can, indeed, become a very challenging hindrance and make you feel incapable of participating in everyday activities. In fact, should you be one of the many men and women who have hypersensitivity, it might perhaps appear to you that, every so often, your environment is a surprisingly unfriendly place and that natural environment out there you is, virtually, out to get you!

You might ponder why it is that others tend to be so invulnerable to the exact same environmental stresses that send your system into overwhelm. Others appear either unaware of or plainly`totally unresponsive to the would-be irritants that lurk at each and every turn, while your body reacts, or rather overreacts, to them. Why you? It is a appropriate question. The fact is that a number of people, not unlike yourself, have a hyperactive immune system that basically “goes into a frenzy” whenever you are exposed to ordinary substances most notably pollen, dander, shellfish, or nuts.

Can your Oxnard Chiropractor assist you in gaining a lasting reduction in your allergy symptoms? The answer is a unquestionable “Yes,” and the solution will possibly surprise you. Scores of chiropractic patients have realized that they enjoy freedom from their allergy symptoms after a chiropractic treatment, despite the fact that chiropractic care does not essentially directly address allergies, per se. The explanation for the lessing of allergy symptoms is because chiropractic treatment has an effect on your whole nervous system, including the autoimmune system, which is at the root of your hypersensitive responses. When there’s a hindrance in the nervous system, in addition to other challenges, the autoimmune system, whose duty it is to enable you to adapt and react appropriately to your environment, is likely to become under-active or overactive. When it comes to your allergies, the reaction is the latter (it becomes overactive).

Since chiropractic manipulations are intended to lessen or even totally get rid of disruptions in the nervous system and bring back balance and tranquility to the complete body, coupled with a variety of corrections, the manipulations furnish homeostasis to the autoimmune system at the same time. A strong immune system responds appropriately to so-called allergens in the natural world.

So, as mentioned above, your Oxnard Chiropractor doesn’t necessarily apply treatment to allergy symptoms, yet that doesn’t suggest your allergies won’t get better or go away for good. On the other hand, you could point out, instead, that relief from your allergies is merely the “side-effect” of your rebalanced nervous system. If you want to get back into a good relationship with your surroundings as quickly as is possible, call Dr. Bolt, your Oxnard Chiropractor, today. He can help you to enjoy your life again!

Non-trauma knee problems: The most prevailing cause of non-traumatic pain is insufficient mechanics of the knee joint and the associated stress on the soft tissues of the knee. The patella or knee-cap is the most common area affected because many times the patella does not move properly on the femur during bending of the knee causing undue stress on the tendons, cartilage and ligaments. This distinct condition is frequently called chondromalacia patella (CMP) or Patella Femoral Syndrome (Knee Cap Pain). This dysfunction is due to imbalances in the quadriceps muscles of the thigh that connect to and move the patella. Imbalances in the muscles having to do with knee movement frequently originate from lower back dysfunction, particularly in the sacroiliac joint. Imbalances in muscle groups that join to the knee can also lead to pain and dysfunction. For example, the muscles on the inside of the thigh, when strained and tight, can cause pain on the medial or inside of the knee. Faulty foot mechanics that produce gait deviations such as pronation, are another cause of mechanical knee pain.

The associated pain from overuse is most frequently experienced during activity, in particular stair climbing, running, jumping, and following getting up from prolonged sitting. Some women appear to be predisposed to painful overuse conditions for anatomical reasons, however such ailments are frequently related to wearing high heels on a regular basis.

The main treatment for mechanical or overuse injuries to the knee is to re-establish proper balance of the muscles, restore proper movement to the patella and other joints of the knee, and to correct any subluxations of the sacroiliac joints and bones of the foot. In certain cases, a brace is required to assist with the adjustment of the patella or to secure the joint. Chiropractors, such as your chiropractor, are ideally trained to render knowledgeable assessment and care of these problems.

Knee problems due to trauma: Traumatic injuries commonly take place during sports that involve running and jumping, especially. Sprains take place when tissue is torn by virtue of the knee being stretched or contorted beyond the facility of the ligaments that hold the joint together. Strains to muscles that give motion to the knee can take place when the muscles are torn during injury. As with a sprain, a muscle strain can vary from a slight injury that requires little attention to a extreme injury needing surgery. The knee also is comprised of two special “cartilages” – the menisci – between the tibia and the femur that facilitate frictionless mobility and cushioning. These cartilages can also be torn during trauma, and commonly need surgical repair, or even removal if damaged severely.

Traumatic knee injuries can create intense pain and swelling and necessitate prompt diagnosis and treatment. In most instances a qualified chiropractor, such as your Chiropractor, can treat these types of injuries, although there are some injuries that may necessitate the skills of an orthopedic surgeon. In any event, it is crucial to stabilize the injured joint right away and to use ice on the injured area, if possible, until the injury can be assessed.

If poor mechanics, overuse problems, or traumatic injuries are not eliminated at an early stage, the tissues of the knee joint, particularly the cartilage, will begin to wear out over the course of time. If tissue and cartilage deteriorate, the bones will rub together unprotected and changes such as bone spurs can eventuate. This painful affliction, known as degenerative joint disease or osteoarthritis, commonly progresses with age. Usual treatment may involve medications such as NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). Nevertheless, there are natural anti-inflammatory supplements that produce excellent results such as rosemary, glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, bioflavinoids, curcumin. Conservative treatment, such as chiropractic, can be extremely beneficial in relieving the pain. Your San Jose chiropractor is will gladly discuss anti-inflammatory supplements. In addition, individuals can often help themselves by keeping their weight down, doing exercises (especially in the pool), and wearing cushioned shoes or insoles.
