Nutritional Counseling
Dr. Gina Yaritz (Dr. Gina) is a 1991 graduate of Northwestern College of Chiropractic in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She grew up in Wisconsin and moved to Spokane in 1992 where she began her practice. She enjoys working with her patients and believes the key to getting quality care is in the teamwork between her and her patients.

She treats any size of patients effectively and thoroughly. She also works hard to prevent her patients from having re-occurring problems and educates them regarding nutrition and lifestyle changes.
Ear Infections
A child's spine can become quite misaligned without any awareness on their part of pain or discomfort. Children have not always developed enough awareness of their bodies to identify a subtle chronic issue developing. Even when a child is experiencing pain, they may not be able to communicate it to you and it can come across as grumpiness, acting out, or incessant crying. Issues with the spine can also be the source of many other childhood issues, such as colic, ear infections, and ADHD.
Constipation
Immunizations
Proof of Immunization. We will disclose proof of immunization to a school that is required to have it before admitting a student where you have agreed to the disclosure on behalf of yourself or your dependent.

Pregnancy
Communication with your massage therapist at Central Chiropractic and Massage is very important. Motherâ€™s with low risk pregnancies have to opportunity to benefit in numerous ways through various types of massages. If a mother does have a high risk pregnancy, it is advised to consult with their doctor or midwife prior to receiving therapy.
Labor and Delivery
Chiropractic practitioners can provide safe and effective personalized care throughout your pregnancy and in the postpartum period. A thorough examination will determine the best treatment to address your discomfort and prepare the body for the height of pregnancy and childbirth. There are specialized adjustment methods to accommodate pregnancy. These treatments may reduce the need for pain medications throughout the delivery as well as help to reduce labor time. Follow up treatments can assist in realigning the body after the pregnancyÂ andÂ speed up the transition to a healthy post-pregnancy body.

Kidney Stones
Conditions such as obesity, arthritis, kidney stones, and urinary tract infections have been shown to cause symptoms of lower back pain. These are all serious issues that need to be identified and treated immediately to avoid long-term health issues. Spokane chiropractic doctors are trained to identify these issues and support you in gettingÂ the appropriate treatment. Many of these issues can have their source in spinal misalignments and respond well to chiropractic adjustments.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a painful condition that happens when the median nerve in your wrist is compressed by swelling, often due to an underlying medical condition. It is one of the most common conditions affecting the nerves. Traditionally there were few options to deal with this problem and those available, such as surgery and medication, wereÂ invasive and expensive. Fortunately, chiropractors in Spokane have success treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with a more conservative and gentle approach. If you are wondering whether your wrist pain is caused by Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and want more details on the alternative treatments available from Spokane chiropractors, then read on.

Right to Inspect and Copy. You have the right to inspect and copy your health information, with limited exceptions. To access your medical information, you must submit a written request detailing what information you want access to, whether you want to inspect it or get a copy of it, and if you want a copy, your preferred form and format. We will provide copies in your requested form and format if it is readily producible, or we will provide you with an alternative format you find acceptable, or if we canâ€™t agree and we maintain the record in an electronic format, your choice of a readable electronic or hardcopy format. We will also send a copy to any other person you designate in writing. We will charge a reasonable fee which covers our costs for labor, supplies, postage, and if requested and agreed to in advance, the cost of preparing an explanation or summary. We may deny your request under limited circumstances. If we deny your request to access your child's records or the records of an incapacitated adult you are representing because we believe allowing access would be reasonably likely to cause substantial harm to the patient, you will have a right to appeal our decision. If we deny your request to access your psychotherapy notes, you will have the right to have them transferred to another mental health professional.
Psychiatry
There was a study that found after just one Deep Tissue massage, blood pressure would fall after 40 minutes to one hour. A Psychiatry journal discovered following a massage therapy like Deep Tissue massage actively reduces the amount of cortisol levels. On the other hand, they also found there was a release of oxytocin and serotonin. These hormones increase mood and help with relaxation.
Anxiety

X-Rays
Computed Tomography
I initially went to Central Chiropractic as a last resort. I went to MD's, neurologists and had a CT scan of my neck to find out why I was getting headaches. No doctors could figure out why I was getting headaches and pretty much said I had to live with the headaches. My friend referred me to Central chiropractic so I decided to try chiropractic. I was a little scared because of all the old myths floating around but I figured had nothing to lose. I was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism of the doctors and everything they did. They actually felt my back (something no other doctors did). After the examination, my chiropractor told me my headaches were a result of my neck being out of alignment. After the first treatment, my headaches were relieved instantly. After a couple more, they were gone, after 5 years of headaches. I never felt so good."

Sciatica
The physical stress of pregnancy can lead to a great deal of discomfort. It's common for women in Spokane to visit a chiropractic office regularly for low back pain, as well as other related issues, such as sciatica, leg cramps and constipation. This can lead to difficulty performing daily tasksÂ as well as difficulties in labor.
Whiplash
Whiplash is a commonly missed and serious complication following both minor and severe car accidents.Â Statistically, over 2 million people nationwide and thousands of people in Spokane alone suffer from this devastating aliment and its numerous potential long term complications each year.Â In many instances, the effects of whiplash are not immediately evident and are overlooked for many years.Â As a result, many people fail to seek early treatment and it isnâ€™t until the condition has significantly progressed that they are provided with the appropriate care.Â Through this article, Central Chiropractic and Massage aims to provide you with the knowledge to prevent whiplash in Spokane from occurring in the first place, assist you in identifying symptoms indicating that an injury has occurred, and help you understand the various treatment options available.
Bunions

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
The shoulder and hip joints are two of the most mobile and frequently used joints in the body. They are also a frequent site of injury and pain for many people we see in our Spokane chiropractic clinic.Â From overuse to sports injuries, the causes are many, and the results range from slight discomfort to complete immobilization. The following article from Central Chiropractic and Massage gives information on some of the most common issues that lead to shoulder and leg pain, as well as a description of how chiropractic adjustments can help to reverse it.
Physical Therapy
Just as people get a flu shot at the beginning of the year to try to prevent getting sick, athletes of all ranks shouldnâ€™t wait to see a chiropractor until after an injury has occurred.Â While chiropractic has been proven to be an excellent source for injury rehabilitation and healing, it is an even better resource for preventing the damage from happening.Â Chiropractors view the body as a whole, taking into account all aspects of health.Â Our team at Central Chiropractic and Massage has the resources to provide adjustive procedures, physical therapy, and soft tissue massage to address the nervous, skeletal, muscular, and ligamentous systems.Â Through this approach, the body is allowed to function at its optimal level, keeping you off the bench sidelined with injuries throughout the season.Â If you are an athlete in the Spokane area, contact Central Chiropractic and Massage today to schedule your individualized consultation.
Frozen Shoulder
This exercise is designed for people with shoulder instability and weakness.Â It is also a good exercise to perform to help reduce the symptoms of frozen shoulder.
Slipped Disc
Are you living with a slipped disc or other disc injury in Spokane? If you have a suspicion that your chronic back pain is being caused by a disc injury, or you have received a diagnosis that confirm you are dealing with this kind of issue, you will probably benefit from the best chiropractic care in Spokane you can find.
Shoulder Pain
Neck Pain
Back Pain
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

Bunions Problems
Orthotics will often help to realign the bones within the foot and ankle and therefore take pressure of other parts of the body such as the back, neck, shoulders and hips. In addition, orthotics will help with distributing your weight properly and take further pressure off of toes, bunions and other parts of the foot.
Plantar Fasciitis
Reflexology is a very effective healing modality centered primarily in the feet and hands. Those experiencing plantar fasciitis, arthritis, and loss of mobility can benefit greatly from these techniques. Calf, ankle, toe, arm, wrist, and finger pain also respond well to these procedures.
