Many people think chiropractors are only needed to treat back pain when in reality, we can treat a multitude of different health and body issues. At Westmoreland Chiropractic and Rehab Associates in Greensburg and Export, PA, we not only treat neck and back issues, but we also treat headaches, leg pain, car accident injuries and so much more.
Chronic Back Aches
The rise of office jobs comes with an increase in patients coming in with severe back pain and aches. Many desk jobs involve people sitting for up to nine hours a day in small, uncomfortable chairs with no lumbar support. While sitting in these chairs, you hunch forward which causes shooting pain up the spine. After sitting in these chairs for five days a week for long hours, you may realize your back pain isn’t going away anytime soon. Sitting for long hours can cause herniated discs that require quite some time for recovery.
Pain in Your Legs
You may experience sharp, shooting pains in one or both of your legs that may be caused by a pinched nerve in your back or a slipped disc putting pressure on your back muscles. Stretching might help relieve some of the pain but if that doesn’t work, you should schedule an appointment with a chiropractor.
Car or Work Accidents
Car and work accidents are common reasons that patients visit a chiropractor. We specialize in treating car accident injuries such as whiplash and bruised muscles and we will provide the best chiropractic care possible to get you up and moving.
Improving Your Posture
If you play video games often or sit awkwardly on the couch it may alter your posture. Some results of bad posture include a stiff neck and constant back pain. Several different chiropractic treatments can help the body readjust and over time, return your body to a normal, healthy posture.
Headaches
Headaches have many causes, but some are caused by a stiff neck or spinal misalignment. Our expert chiropractors at Westmoreland Chiropractic and Rehab Associates can treat neck and spine misalignment and remedy those frequent headaches.
Sports Injuries
Whether you have swung a golf club too hard or hurt your shoulder throwing a football, we can help with the recovery process. Our chiropractor can provide treatment for rotator cuff injuries as well as pulled muscles.
