Dr. Greg Justice, DC is a chiropractor in Lone Tree that is committed to quality care for all of your treatment needs. Using a variety of strategies for spinal decompression, it is possible to reduce or eliminate the need for surgery when you have a compression in your spine. When a nerve ending becomes compressed, the nerve will eventually become inflamed. This causes pain that can radiate down your arm or leg, depending on where the compression is located. With chiropractic care at Lone Tree Wellness as part of your overall wellness, you can reduce pain and improve your range of motion.
Signs You Have a Spinal Compression
Spinal compressions can occur because of a loss of disc volume, arthritis, or a misalignment of the spine. You might have pain in your back near the compressed area or feel a tingling sensation down your arms or legs. Spinal compressions can make mobility harder and lead to muscle pain, tightness, and poor range of motion. You may be told that surgery is your only option, but you can try decompression techniques with a chiropractor to reverse your condition.
Spinal Decompression Techniques
A chiropractor uses spinal decompression techniques to open up the space between vertebrae when there is compression. Gentle stretching may be used and you might be taught certain exercises to help strengthen the muscles that support your spine. Spinal adjustments can ease the strain on the compressed vertebrae, while supportive therapies will help relax the muscles holding your spine in place. Spinal decompression can reduce inflammation and eliminate your pain over time.
What to Expect During Chiropractic Treatment
Dr. Greg will provide treatment to ease your pain and get your spine back into alignment. You can expect to be comfortable during the treatment and you will have the opportunity to ask questions. You will talk about your treatment goals and learn new exercises to do at home to strengthen your body. As you get stronger, you will discover that your mobility will start to improve. If you have any problems with your treatment, let our chiropractor know so that your treatment plan can be adjusted as needed.
