Almost two-thirds of American adults experience back pain and neck pain. However, chiropractic care can be beneficial in providing relief so you can return to your daily routine without obstructions. Before you pay us a visit at White Plains Chiropractic Wellness, PLLC in White Plains, NY, read about five common chiropractic techniques for neck and pain and how these methods are used to reduce discomfort.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression uses a traction device to stretch the patient’s spine. This technique helps relieve pressure and pain in the neck and back.
Table Adjustments
If you've seen a movie or TV show in which the character receives a back massage or other chiropractic care, then you may be familiar with a chiropractic drop table. Essentially, the table features pieces that drop below the rest of the table. Our chiropractor will put pressure on the region where you are most in pain as the drop piece lowers in order to realign the spine.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft tissue therapy involves manually manipulates the patient's joints and muscles, which improves joint alignment and eases tension. If your neck pain or back pain is caused by a physically-demanding job, soft tissue therapy can help you find relief.
Lumbar Roll
A Lumbar roll involves the patient is laying on their side while our chiropractor applies pressure to the affected area. This method is most effective for centralized lower back pain.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the application of needles to the parts of the body that affected by pain. The needles are carefully placed in specific points in order to release endorphins, increase blood flow, and relieve pain.
