When it comes to pain relief and you want a holistic approach that doesn't involve taking pharmaceuticals, chiropractic care provides the options you need. Dr. Phil Lozano of Lozano Chiropractic in Norco, CA has many treatments that can provide pain relief. You will receive a personalized plan designed uniquely for you.
Chiropractic adjustment
Chiropractic adjustment is a basic treatment in chiropractic care. When there are misalignments in the spine, the messages from the brain can't get through. Nothing works as well as it should without this impediment being removed. Adjustments can also help in the extremities when joints are out of alignment. Misalignments stress the muscles and soft tissues as well, leading to pain. Getting the bones aligned can help to provide pain relief.
ART (Active Release Techniques®)
This technique is a particular massage technique used to treat soft tissue and nerve issues. It is used to break up scar tissue. The practitioners are credentialed and attend classes to learn these specific interventions. The technique is very effective and takes only a few treatments to provide pain relief results.
Myofascial release
The fasciae support the muscles throughout the body. Pain from trigger points in the fasciae can be very difficult to locate and finding the location of the trigger point is a hands-on treatment. The knots that result from trigger points have to be released with massage. It often requires applying the technique to a larger area in order to be sure the correct point is released.
Chiropractic cupping
Cupping uses suction cups on the area that needs treatment. By applying suction, the circulation is increased to the area, which promotes healing and pain relief.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is the use of a cold to help with pain relief and healing. Ice pack cryotherapy is familiar; it is basically what you do for a sprained ankle. But it can be used for other injuries to reduce pain and inflammation. It can be used in the immediate aftermath of an injury but is also effective for pain relief later in the rehabilitation process.
Electric stimulation therapy
Several different types of electric stimulation therapy can be used to treat a variety of muscle and soft tissue issues. It is useful for pain relief that is muscle related.
Ultrasound therapy
For pain relief, healing, and reducing inflammation, ultrasound therapy uses sound waves to go deep below the skin. It creates heat and vibration that decreases pain and stiffness and promotes healing.
