Chiropractic Care: It's Not Just for Your Back

By Florida Spine and Injury on May 1, 2018 4:16:38 PM

Why is Chiropractic Care good for Back Pain? 

This question may have crossed your mind before.

Chiropractic care has existed since the 1800s and mostly focus on the spinal manipulation when it comes to treatment. This part of the body is the bridge that carries nerves and signals to the brain.

So, if Chiropractors spend most of their time working on the spine, can they help other parts of your body?

The answer is absolutely.

Chiropractic methods can also involve pain management, nervous system re-adjustment, spinal realignment, and assisting in the relief and treatment in many other health issues.

With that said, let's dig into some of the other areas chiropractic care can help with.

How Chiropractors Can Help With Disc Injuries

By Florida Spine and Injury on Apr 30, 2018 2:52:44 PM

Herniated and Bulging Discs are some of the most common causes of pain and discomfort in the back that Chiropractors see in their patients.

Backbone discs are sensitive because they are like spongy pads found between the particular bone fragments, the vertebrae, of the spinal column.

Generally known as intervertebral discs, each is a set, circular capsule about one inch in diameter and one-quarter inches thick.

Each intervertebral disc has a biscuit-shaped framework with a jelly-like middle known as the Nucleus Pulposus and an extremely strong external membrane known as the Annulus Fibrous.

As children, the spinal discs are fluid-filled sacs that start to solidify as part of the regular aging. By beginning adulthood, the blood supply stops and the soft inner material hardens.

By middle age, your discs are hard, almost like a piece of hard rubber. This is why adults are vulnerable to disc damage and Disc Degeneration.
