Chiropractic care is a natural way to treat neck and back pain. It is based on the belief that the body, when all things are in alignment, has the ability to heal itself. A chiropractor also looks for the root cause of pain, instead of just treating your symptoms. When you have neck and back pain in Chula Vista, CA, you can count on Dr. Steven Wachs of Wachs Chiropractic Health Center to provide the relief that you are looking for.

Chiropractic care is a holistic approach to health. By restoring the alignment of the spine, the messages from the brain can travel freely, allowing the body to use its natural ability to heal. 

Chiropractic Adjustments

Chiropractic adjustments and manipulation are the cornerstone treatments used by chiropractors to treat their patients. More than 100 techniques are available and most chiropractors use more than one, depending on the patient. Some techniques are hands-on, and others use an instrument. The Diversified Technique is the most widely taught and used chiropractic technique. It uses high velocity, low amplitude thrusts to resolve the subluxations in the spine.

The Activator is a spring-loaded instrument that provides a gentle and pinpointed thrust. By using different techniques, your chiropractor is able to treat people of all ages, from newborns to the elderly. 

Massage Therapy

Neck and back pain can be very painful. Massage therapy helps relax soft tissues, which relieves pain, but when it is combined with spinal adjustment, it is exceptionally effective. Massage and chiropractic adjustments complement each other and work better together than either therapy separately. 

Cold Laser Therapy

Cold laser therapy uses light to stimulate soft tissues in targeted areas. This is a different type of laser than the ones that are used for surgery. They provide pain relief naturally by stimulating tissue at the cellular level. Laser therapy also activates endorphins, which are nature's pain relievers. 

Therapeutic Exercise

Therapeutic exercise helps you continue your healing at home. It uses stretches and strengthening exercise to help you to maintain the pain relief that you have achieved through your other chiropractic treatments.
