If your family is like most American families, summertime is your most active season. The favorable weather gets you outdoors, engaging in your favorite sports and activities. Perhaps your busy lifestyle keeps you from pursuing the physical activities you enjoy, but when you're on vacation, you tackle challenges that your body isn't used to doing. And that's when the trouble begins...
You might take a fall, sprain or strain a joint or muscle and end up in pain. Chiropractic is a safe and effective way to address the pain of injuries and overuse for both adults and children.
In the summer months, when school's out, children spend more time outdoors, running and playing, and unfortunately, often falling. The jarring action of a fall can cause their young spine to go out of alignment, creating what chiropractors refer to as a subluxation. Subluxations interfere with normal nerve function, and in a young child, could interfere with normal growth and development of the spine.
It's important to have a chiropractic examination after a fall or injury, especially if back or neck pain results. If left untreated, the subluxation can develop into a longer term problem, especially in developing children.
Chiropractors are among the few types of doctors whose methods are completely safe and natural. We don't use prescription drugs or surgery. Chiropractic adjustments are performed manually. They are painless, and covered by most health insurance companies.
Chiropractic adjustments help to restore normal functioning to the entire nervous system, which in turn, can improve a wide variety of conditions. In addition to neck and back pain, chiropractic adjustments have helped many people with headaches, TMJ, sinus problems, issues with joints in the arms and legs and more. At Wantagh Woods Chiropractic and Wellness, we see patients of all ages, with a variety of conditions for which we can provide relief.
