How Chiropractic Care In Beverly Hills Helps People To Live Free Of Pain

By Irvin Masterson


Almost everybody will suffer pain from time to time, sometimes even very extreme levels of pain. Numerous people, however, suffer crippling pain all the time. Such pain can become the dominant factor in the life of the sufferer. They visit one doctor after the other, spend a small fortune on medication and often even opt for surgery in the hope that they will be able to lead normal lives. Many desperate patients do experience permanent relief after holistic chiropractic care in Beverly Hills.

A large percentage of patients are suffering from back pain. The majority of sufferers that consult with a chiropractor complain of severe back pain, especially in the lower region. Chiropractors do not focus on the back, however. Instead, they focus on the spine. They believe that pain is caused by a spine that is out of alignment. Once the alignment is corrected, the pain will disappear.

Chiropractors believe that an out of alignment spine causes a chain reaction that almost always result in chronic pain. Firstly, when the spine is out of alignment, great pressure is placed upon the nerve system and severe pain is almost always the result. In addition, a weakened nerve system weakens the immune system, impairing the ability of the body to heal itself naturally. Aligning the spine is the key to releasing pressure on both the nerve system and the immune system.

Apart from back pain, chiropractors also treat many other conditions. Patients with severe headaches, neck pain, painful joints and tendons and arthritis are often astonished by the fast relief that they experience. Many professional sportsmen prefer to see a chiropractor when they sustain injuries, mainly because the recovery time is very short. Some larger sports teams even employ chiropractors as part of their management teams.

The alignment of the spine can be achieved by using one or more of several treatment options. The golden rule is normally to use the least drastic treatment method that is likely to achieve the desired results. Sometimes physical manipulation is required, but often the application of cold or hot packs will suffice. Massage is also often used to help align the spine.

Chiropractics is an extremely well respected alternative medical treatment field. One indication of just how well respected is the fact that almost all medical insurance companies will pay for this type of treatment. It is safe and non invasive. Negative side effects are unheard of because no drugs are prescribed and because the treatment methods are always non invasive. Chiropractors do not shun traditional medicine, however. They often refer their patients to medical doctors if they deem it necessary.

Chiropractors place a great emphasis on the prevention of pain. To this end they often make a concerted effort to advise their patients on exercise programs that will strengthen the muscles in the back, improve the movement range of the tendons and joints and to become more flexible. This can help prevent the spine from becoming misaligned.

Critics say that the underlying foundation of this type of treatment is simply too simplistic. Yet the level of patient satisfaction enjoyed by chiropractors is extremely high. Some patients will not see a medical doctor unless their chiropractor deems it necessary. Chiropractors are enjoying a wave of popularity.
