Relieve Pain and Live a More Active, Healthier Life.
Summer months are times of relaxation and
fun. Un-fortunately, that fun may lead to injuries due to strain or
overexertion. Pain does not have to sideline your summer or ruin your
fun. Here's how you can take charge of your health. Have winter and
spring activ-ities put your back out of line? Has summer brought with it
only pinched nerves and aching joints? Maybe it's time to visit Earthway
Family Chiropractic Clinic.
Chiropractors are the only health care professionals specially trained
and experienced in musculoskeletal injuries, the type you experience in
your daily activi-ties. Whether you overdid mowing the grass or play-ing
volleyball, we may be able to help. Most back, neck, hip, or joint pain
results from overexerting |
weak muscles in
these areas. Years of poor posture, improper lifting techniques, and
struct-ural imbalances caused by excess poundage all contribute to the
injury.These types of injuries place additional pressure on the
sensitive spinal structure, often with painful and possibly
debil-itating results.
Don't let pain sideline your summer. Dr. Poirier has helped many area
residents find relief from pain, enabling them to enjoy a more active
lifestyle.Through careful diagnosis and gentle, effective adjustments,
his patients often obtain relief from pain and restored mobility and
func-tion in affected joints. Dr. Poirier and his staff also educate
their patients on the proper main-tenance of a healthy back and nervous
system. Two independant government-funded studies, conducted in the
United States and England, found chiropractic care to be one of the most
effective methods in the treatment of back pain because of its
effectiveness in terms of pain relief, better activity levels, and
higher patient satisfaction. Both studies cited back surgery, as well as
bed rest, as ineffective methods in treating back pain. |
