neuropathy (nerve pain), neuritis, radiculopathy, numbness, tingling

Is Chiropractic Neurology right for my nerve related pain? 

As Chiropractic Neurologists, we are leading experts in nerve pain, radiculopathy, neuritis and other neurological and spinal conditions. Not only are we extensively trained in neurology, orthopedics, physical therapy and rehabilitation, but we incorporate functional restoration, reintegrating all aspects of your dysfunction. Whether your injury is due to muscle, joint, nerve, brain, or likely a combination, our extensive, post-doctoral neurology education allows us to diagnose the true source of your neurogoical pain. Our greater understanding of how your muscles, joints, nerves, and brain interact to form normal function enables us to locate the roots of dysfunction and design a specific treatment plan to eliminate your symptoms for good. Symptoms or conditions associated with these conditions:

• Pain on one side or both sides of the neck or lower back
• Pain, numbness or tingling that radiates down one arm or both arms
• Pain, numbness or tingling that radiates down one arm or both legs
• Neck pain after a car accident (motor vehicle accident)
• Cervical (neck) or lumbar (lower back) disc herniation or bulge
• Cervical (neck) or lumbar (lower back) radiculopathy or neuritis
• foot or hand tingling, numbness or pain
• Poor posture
• Upper back and neck tension
• Upward, shallow breathing that causes excessive tensioning on neck and upper back muscles
• Sciatica
• Autonomic dysregulation

Our chiropractic neurologists are experts in all parts of your problem, incorporating a deep understanding of the spine, muscles, nerves and brain. We address not only the physical components of joints and muscles, but also the interconnections of our nerves and brain that create that majestic, integrated system that is you, allowing us to restore function to the most complex disorders and symptoms by reconnecting healthy communication and function. By utilizing the most effective, scientifically proven treatments we're able to enhance joint mobility, restore nerve signaling, reduce muscle tension, and create accurate brain mapping that is essential for normal, symptom-free function. 

Our approach is different, we do more than just adjust your neck and spine, we incorporate aspects of stretching, strengthening, electrical muscle stimulation, active muscle release, percussor muscle therapy, disc decompression, graston therapy, neurological rehabilitation and taping to reintegrate function and health at every level of dysfunction, restoring optimal health. 

We treat many difficult and complex conditions and symptoms related to neck pain and headaches, often many that have failed treatments by other doctors. Our chiropractic neurology approach can often locate what's missing as we look in depth at all systems and their interactions through the nervous system. Once we have located the problem(s), we then create a specific treatment plan to address and restore function to all of the involved structures and connections, creating complete restoration for the individual as symptoms abate.

• Meralgia Parasthetica (entrapment of the Lateral Femoral Cuteanous nerve at the anterior hip)
• Posterior Interosseous Nerve Syndrome (pain in the medial forearm, or flexor compartment)
• Suprascapular nerve entrapment (pain in the upper posterior shoulder blade region with weakness during the start of abduction and external rotation only-must be differentiated between C5 radiculopathy)
• Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome (entrapment behind the medial malleolus, or inner ankle joint)- uncommo
• Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (entrapment of the lower trunk of the Brachial Plexus at the area behind the clavicle, or collar bone)
