What is Chiropractic?
Through injury, trauma, or even daily life, vertebra in the spine can become misaligned. Misalignments and joint dysfunction can not only cause pain and muscle spasm, but over time degneration of joints and discs can occur. The resulting degeneration often hinders the functioning of the nervous system; this is usually experienced as tingling and/or numbness in an arm or leg or muscle weakness and atrophy in more severe cases.
Using gentle pressure, chiropractors restore proper motion to the joints. Once the joints are functioning properly, not only do pain and muscle spasm decrease, but the nervous system is also allowed to function more efficiently. Once proper communication between the brain and the rest of the body is restored, the body can then begin to repair any damage to soft tissues and start to heal.
“I had so much pain in my shoulder, and I would get a terrible burning sensation in my neck. The pain would go all the way down my arm. After being treated by Dr. Ayesha Qureshi, my pain is gone. I now go about every 5 weeks for an adjustment. It is so good to be pain free.”
