The following are the Top 10 symptoms clients come to see us for. All of them are related to Spinal Misalignment and our holistic approach is to find the root cause to resolve the underlying problem.
-
Back Pain: This is the most common symptom and can range from dull, achy discomfort to sharp, severe pain.
-
Neck Pain: Misalignment in the cervical spine can lead to neck pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion.
-
Headaches: Spinal misalignment, particularly in the upper neck, can trigger tension headaches and migraines.
-
Nerve Pain: Compression of spinal nerves can lead to radiating pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or legs. Sciatica is a common example of nerve pain associated with spinal misalignment.
-
Muscle Tension: Misalignment can cause muscle imbalances and tension, leading to discomfort and reduced flexibility.
-
Postural Changes: Poor spinal alignment can result in changes in your posture, such as forward head posture, hunched shoulders, or an uneven pelvis.
-
Reduced Range of Motion: Spinal misalignment can limit your ability to move certain body parts, affecting your overall mobility.
-
Pain in Other Areas: Misalignment in the spine can sometimes manifest as pain in other parts of the body, such as the hips, knees, or feet.
-
Digestive Issues: In some cases, spinal misalignment in the thoracic region may contribute to digestive problems.
-
Fatigue and Sleep Disturbances: Chronic pain can lead to poor sleep quality, resulting in fatigue and reduced overall well-being.
Why do we focus on the root cause and not only on the symptoms?
Because treating symptoms alone may provide temporary relief, but won’t resolve the underlying problem. Addressing the root cause allows for more effective and long-lasting treatment. Also, to prevent the recurrence, identifying the root cause helps prevent the problem from coming back.
Most importantly, when the patients understand the underlying reason for the symptom to occur, they can make informed decisions about their health and take proactive steps to prevent similar issues in the future, sometimes as small as little change of habits.
