Joint Pain
Any joint can get misaligned or “stuck,” creating problems for the body. Motion is what the body, brain and nervous system thrive off of, and any time that motion is impaired, pain and other symptoms can result.
Just like joints in the spine, the joints of your extremities can become subluxated or misaligned. At Freedom Chiropractic, we work on any joint in your body that isn’t functioning as it should, whether that’s in your arms, legs or spine. Although joint problems in the extremities are common with athletes, people of all walks of life can experience joint pain.
Our Comprehensive Approach
Part of our approach is to restore proper alignment and motion to the joint itself through chiropractic adjustments. The second part is to re-educate the muscles through customized strengthening and stretching protocols so we can fully rehab the entire joint issue so it doesn’t keep getting worse over time.
Of course, we begin with a thorough consultation and examination, which includes much more than just the area where you are experiencing pain or decreased motion. For example, if you’re having problems with your shoulder, we will assess the spine, the nerve flow to the shoulder and the kinetic chain that runs from your neck, shoulder, elbow and on into your wrist. That’s because any of those areas could be contributing to the pain in your shoulder—or any of those areas may be taking extra abuse by compensating to make up for what your shoulder is unable to do.
Customized Care Plans
No two joint issues are identical, and neither are our care plans. We will tailor your chiropractic adjustments and rehab protocols to your specific situation. Depending on the circumstances, we might also recommend ice, moist heat, stretching and/or strengthening.
