When life throws a curve ball in the form of an injury or chronic pain, don’t let it throw you off your game. Dr. Kyle Knapp at Kurv O2 in McKinney, TX, offers chiropractic adjustments and other techniques to help you achieve optimal relief, health, and wellness.
The Role of Chiropractic Adjustments in Health and Relief
Pain and suffering may be common, but they have no business hanging around in our lives. Many people suffer through pain due to an unwillingness to rely on medication or invasive techniques, but those don’t have to be the only options. Dr. Knapp and the team at Kurv O2 in McKinney, TX, share below how chiropractic adjustments can relieve your suffering and restore your health without the use of addictive medication or surgical procedures.
Effects of Spinal Misalignment
To fully grasp the importance of adjustments, you should first understand the importance of spinal alignment. In some ways, your spinal column is like anything that is designed to be lined up in a specific way to distribute its load, such as the tires of your car or the foundation of your home. When any of these things are out of alignment or balance, it puts unnecessary strain on other areas.
A misalignment in the spinal column puts undue stress on your muscles, ligaments, tendons, discs, and nerves. It can even impact how you walk, which puts undue pressure on your joints and feet. All of this can lead to symptoms such as:
- Chronic neck pain
- Chronic back pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Muscle tension
- Sprains and strains
- Herniated discs
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the extremities
- Poor sleep
- Fatigue
- Joint pain
Setting the Spine Straight
Adjustments are a method used to shift any misaligned bones back into place, which naturally relieves unnecessary pressure on the rest of the body. This not only leads to pain relief but also to improved nerve function. Additionally, it can help you sleep better, perform better in sports or daily life, have more energy, and be more active.
Adjustments are a core element of chiropractic care. However, they are often combined with other methods, such as spinal decompression, shockwave therapy, therapeutic exercise, and more to ensure that your body can heal completely.
