Chiropractic

If you have ever suffered from severe lower back pain, you know that’s not the time to question whether or not chiropractors are considered real doctors while you rush to make an appointment.

Over the years the practice of chiropractic has increased dramatically across the nation and it continues to do so. Chiropractors are Doctors of Chiropractic, not medical doctors. Chiropractic treatments have become much more helpful and sophisticated in the last few decades.

Chiropractors are licensed by individual states and the regulations vary. Each chiropractor must be licensed, and this entails two to four years of undergraduate study and the successful completion of a four-year chiropractic college course. Each candidate must pass state and national examinations.

Some states allow chiropractors to obtain a license from another state without additional examinations; they qualify through their educational and examination background.

The practice of chiropractic is expected to increase more rapidly than most professions during the next decade. This is due primarily to the public’s demand for noninvasive treatment for back pain and other problems attributed to spinal disorders.

Chiropractors deal with many different kinds of pain, but their main focus is with discomfort caused by dislocation of the spine. Spinal joint misalignments cause problems and pain in the nervous system and chiropractors can usually alleviate the suffering through manual manipulation of the spine.

Doctors of Chiropractic do not prescribe drugs or perform surgery, which is a welcome relief for the patients. Chiropractors have other treatment procedures besides manual manipulation, which include the following:

• They use therapies that include heat, ultrasound, electric currents, and heat.

• Chiropractors often give their patients advice about nutrition, exercise, stress management, and positive changes in an unhealthy lifestyle.

The practice of chiropractic has become widely accepted among the American public; this acceptance has increased significantly during the past three decades. Chiropractors help their patients in many ways, but these doctors are most closely associated with the excruciating pain caused by a lower back in disarray.

With improved technology and treatment, the practice of chiropractic is increasing and here to stay.

Spinal reflex therapy is a neurological soft tissue procedure that gets powerful and reliable results. You can learn more at Spinal Reflex Institute's website.

Adjustments, more commonly known as spinal manipulation, may be able to help some breathing problems. The biggest determinant will be what is causing the breathing problems.

Spinal manipulation can increase the mobility of the thoracic spine and ribs which can make breathing easier. Also, manipulation may increase the function of muscles involved in breathing, again, making breathing easier. However, spinal manipulation has not been shown with scientific research to affect airway obstructions caused by asthma, allergies, emphysema, etc. Thus, if your breathing problems are purely mechanical (rib or spine dysfunction) then spinal manipulation will likely help 100%. If your breathing problems are caused by a conditions such as asthma, the spinal manipulation may make breathing a bit easier and improve quality of life, but it will not solve your problems...you will still need medical care.

Until you are properly checked out by a liscened physician, you should not go to sleep. The reasoning behind this is, that if you suffered a concussion in the motor vehicle accident you could possibly be unable to wake up again.

Thomas Edison said: "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease."

This is one of the fundamental principles of chiropractic...treating the "frame" (the joints in the skeleton) and using dietary and nutritional advice to prevent disease.

The "Lumbar" section of the back consists of the five lowest vertabre in the back.

- If the fracture is open (the bone is breaking out through your skin) then yes, you should go to emergency for fast surgery.

- If you have broken your femur (really big bone in your thigh) then you have probably been in a bad accident with major trauma, so there are probably many reasons it is an emergency.

- For a simple closed fracture (no bone sticking through the skin) of your leg below the knee, it is likely not going to need surgery, just a cast, but you should still go to the emergency room of your local hospital.

you have to see a doctor imidiately. once you feel pain in your legs its a serios problem

If all of these symptoms are ocurring together everytime you stand up, then I would visit a medical doctor for a checkup. However, if these symptoms are ocurring seperately then there are a few possible causes:

Your neck popping all the time is likely just a bit of instability in the cervical spine, do you have poor posture or sit for long periods? Do you exercise regularly?

The light headedness and tunnel vision after standing up is called orthostatic hypotension. If it is severe (you pass out everytime you stand up) you should visit your medical doctor. If it is only mild and occassionally, then dont worry about it..it happens to all of us.

Pain down your back could again be related to poor posture or spinal instability. Do you exercise regularly? It could also be many other causes...visit a chiropractor for a complete exam and diagnosis.

what is his method

There are 2 possibilities:

1) Your chiropractor was having some fun and joking around, be glad you have a personable and fun chiropractor.

2) Your chiropractor is a nut job, find a new chiropractor.
