Speed Your Recovery With Chiropractic Care

By Donna Stark

It's bad enough that you got hurt, but what is often more frustrating than the initial injury, is the lingering pain you have to deal with for days or even weeks later. From that mild twinge of discomfort every now and then to the debilitating pain you feel every time you move your body a certain way, your injury isn't shy about letting you know that it's simply not ready to be healed yet. And as much as you want to get on with your life, you know you are at its mercy and there isn't anywhere to go. Or is there?

Chiropractic Care Can Speed Your Recovery

If there is one thing your local chiropractors at The Joint Chiropractic want you to know, it's that you do have options. You don't have to settle with lingering pain after an injury and you most certainly do have somewhere else to go! Chiropractic care has been shown to shorten the healing and recovery process of injuries and can help you return to your normal activities sooner than you think. Here's how.

• Alleviates pain - Those bottles of pain medications and muscle relaxants may help for a bit, but they will never address the underlying cause of your pain. During your examination, your chiropractor will identify and then target the source of the problem with precise adjustments. Once your body is properly aligned, the tension in your muscles will ease and the painful pressure on your nerves will decrease.
• Increases mobility - As soon as your body can maintain correct alignment, you may find that it becomes easier to move. Why? Well, chiropractic care helps to reduce stress, tension, and inflammation in the body. It also helps to increase flexibility, range of motion, and stability. Put all of those together and you may find yourself with better mobility than what you had before your injury!
• Improves blood blow - Your injured area needs to receive as many white blood cells and nutrients as it can, and the best way to do so is with improved blood flow. Chiropractic care improves blood circulation throughout the body, and once your blood flow is back to normal, true healing can occur.
