Chiropractic in Highlands Ranch

As a chiropractor in Highlands Ranch, many people are confused about what chiropractic really is. In this short blog post, I hope to clear the air a little bit and tell what chiropractic treatments can really help.

Chiropractic is the science, philosophy & art of removing nerve interference known as a subluxation or a pinched nerve. We do that by locating the pinched nerve through palpation of the spine. If we do find a nerve that is pinched, we perform a manual chiropractic adjustment in order to relieve the pressure from that nerve. When this happens, the blockage goes away and the nerve can start to fire properly again.

When a nerve is pinched, it cannot send the signals from the brain out to the body. The only signal that does happen is a pain signal. If you have thrown out your back or neck in the past, you will know the pain I am talking about. Neck and back pain can be very debilitating.

The sooner you receive a chiropractic adjustment, the faster we can relieve the pain and get your nerve free from any pinching. One of the most common questions I get at my Highlands Ranch Chiropractic clinic is how did my pinch nerve happen in the first place? If it wasn’t from a severe trauma like a car accident, sports injury, or other whiplash injury; then your pinched nerve probably happened from a chronic posture problem. People who sit all day at a computer or hunched over on their cell phones can develop pinched nerves from poor posture.
