Chiropractic Adjustments
Answer: Helping to restore proper spinal biomechanics and improved nervous system function begins with a case history. This gives the doctor a background about your health, such as surgeries, accidents, the onset of your condition, and other details affecting your current health. After reviewing your history and discussing your specific problem, a thorough orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examination is performed. X-rays may be taken to uncover structural and functional problems associated with the spinal column. These examinations help identify areas of spinal malfunction and resulting nervous system deficit. The findings of these examinations are explained and a plan of chiropractic adjustments may be recommended. Progress is monitored with periodic examinations and follow-up reports.

Spinal Adjustments
Lead investigator of the study, Pran Manga, Ph.D., however, did warn that spinal adjustments performed by health care professionals other than qualified doctors of chiropractic were potentially harmful and less effective: " Indeed, several existing medical therapies of low-back pain are generally contraindicated on the basis of the existing clinical trials. There is also some evidence in the literature to suggest that spinal manipulations are less safe and less effective when performed by nonchiropractic professionals."
Nutritional Consultation
Subluxation
The nervous system is made up of the brain, spinal cord and a network of nerves. The spinal cord is encased within 24 movable bones called vertebrae that protect the spinal cord. A network of nerves branch out from the spinal cord, then travel through spaces between the adjacent vertebrae to control and communicate with all muscles, blood vessels, organs and other tissues of the body. When two adjacent vertebrae become misaligned, the space between the vertebrae becomes constricted. Just as less after would flow through a hose which is partially kinked, fewer electrical impulses flow through the nerve due to the vertebral misalignment. If the nervous system is impaired, it can cause malfunction of the tissues and organs throughout the body, which decreases the ability to fend off diseases, digest foods or engage in any other activity that requires normal nerve flow. Doctors call this the Vertebral Subluxation Complex. Vertebral, meaning the bones of the spine. Subluxation, meaning less than a total dislocation. And Complex, meaning consisting of more than one part.
Manipulation Therapy
"There is no clinical or case-control study that demonstrates or even implies that chiropractic spinal manipulation is unsafe in the treatment of low-back pain. Some medical treatments are equally safe, but others are unsafe and generate iatrogenic (doctor-induced) complications for low-back pain patients. Our reading of the literature suggests that chiropractic manipulation is safer than medical management of low-back pain."
Spinal Decompression
Our patients with serious back pain are enjoying the relief they are getting from our new spinal decompression machine, the DRX9000™, one of the few in the Greensboro area. And, especially for patients that have been told they are a candidate for back surgery, The DRX9000™ is the perfect solution, making back surgery unnecessary in many cases. This cutting edge, Health Canada and FDA cleared equipment allows us to pinpoint the disc and gently decompress it, relieving pressure on the nerves that are producing all that pain.
Flexion Distraction Therapy
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a component of the health care system of China that can be traced back for at least 2,500 years. Since President Richard Nixon's visit to China in 1972, there has been an explosion of interest in the application of the technique of acupuncture in many western countries including the United States. Acupuncture has been used by millions of American patients and performed by thousands of physicians, dentists, acupuncturists, and other practitioners for relief or prevention of pain and for a variety of health conditions. After reviewing the existing body of knowledge, the U.S. food and Drug Administration recently removed acupuncture needles from the category of "experimental medical devices" and now regulates them just as it does other devices, such as surgical scalpels and hypodermic syringes.
