Cure For Sciatica?

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

Most people try to hide the symptoms of sciatica with drugs that have side effects. When the drugs don’t work, they seek surgery, but many times surgery has disastrous outcomes.

Patients at our center are experiencing dramatic and consistent relief using safe and gentle techniques that eliminate the most common cause of sciatica.

The most common cause of sciatica is a bone out of alignment in the lower back. Scientists and doctors call this condition “vertebral subluxation”.

Without proper care, sciatica has a tendency to get worse. Eventually, it can lead to atrophy of the muscles, (muscle shrinking) in the legs. In some cases left untreated, sciatica can lead to permanent nerve damage.

Is there a “cure” for your condition? You will never know unless you call. The examination is free when you mention this article. (303) 394-CARE (2273)

Care ChiropracticSerious interference with the nerves that come from the lower back can trigger painful burning sensations in the legs. It can start as pain in only one leg and radiate all the way down to the foot. It can start and stop, get better and worse and generally make you miserable until you get real help. Read this clinical case history from one of our many gratified patients.

“Before I came here, I was having severe pain in my lower back and legs. I had done some work outside in the snow and developed this pain. It was so bad, I had to take time off of work because I couldn’t bend and walk upright. After my first visit the pain had diminished 90%. I continued coming on a weekly routine and gradually got better. It has been about two months now and I have just a backache once in a while. This technique and Dr. Visentin have done wonders for me. Thank you very much I appreciate it.” –M. Augustine

Many times people come to us and wonder when their pain will stop. We remind them that unless they remove the cause of their pain, it may never go away.

How Does Chiropractic Care Help Low Back Pain?

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

About 90% of people who suffer from low back pain do not have a specific cause of it. We call this nonspecific low back pain. Tissues are damaged over time from things like bad posture and incorrect lifting techniques. Now you may be thinking, “I do not have a job that requires me to lift anything heavy.”

However, every time you lift your kids into the car seat or pull your groceries from your trunk you should be using proper lifting techniques. This includes not rounding your back but squatting down by bending your knees when picking up an object. Try to keep things close to your body, as this lessens the load on your spine and try not to twist while lifting.

When you get tissue damage in your back, your body tries to stabilize around it by locking joints together and laying down scar tissue. In the short term this is a good solution, however if not corrected it can lead to (more…)
