Signs of Nerve Discomfort
Many signs are apparent in our daily lives that can be attributed to the spine being out of alignment and as a result of this misalignment, pressure is applied to a nerve. Here are some common warning signs:
At Martin Chiropractic Clinic relieving your pain and discomfort is important to us. Our top priority is to correct the underlying problem that causes your pain with customized care for your ailment.
The Wellness Patient
Drs. Dirk and Eric Martin are dedicated to the Wellness Movement. Recently, we have seen a shift in our nation's need for better health, and a more proactive lifestyle. As chiropractors, we would like to emphasize that our services can meet all your wellness needs. We offer many products including Standard Process nutritional supplements (whole foods), dietary cleanses and nutritional "coaching" that will help the patient get a firm base of knowledge for themselves and their families.
How does chiropractic fit into your wellness plan?
A subluxation is defined as a partial dislocation of a bone or joint. As applied to the spine, a segment or "vertebral body" can be out of place (rotated, laterally fixed or both). As a result, a bone out of place can put pressure on the nerve(s) associated with that vertebral level. Again, we must ask "how does chiropractic fit in to your wellness plan?" Chiropractors can correct subluxations through manual adjustment, therefore taking pressure off the nerve and allowing the body to function as it should.
To be clear, chiropractic wellness care is not just about removing the aches and pains (or numbness, tingling etc) resulting from pressure on a nerve. Wellness care is about improving function and creating a better health environment for the body. As chiropractors, we want to emphasize that the nerves exiting all levels of our spine travel not only to the muscles, but also to nearly every cell in the body.
This includes but is not limited to:
Correcting subluxations can lead to improved energy, improved concentration at work and school, and improved performance levels with exercise and competition.
