Are you wondering why your back hurts? Are you worried that you might have to live the rest of your life in pain?
You no longer have to lose sleep due to your back pain. There is a safe, effective, and non-invasive option to treat your pain. It's Chiropractic.
Chiropractic works by removing interference from your nervous system.
Your nervous system controls every cell, tissue, and organ in your body. Misalignment of one or more of your spinal joints causes irritation to the delicate spinal nerves, interfering with the function of the tissues/muscles they control. Poor posture, car accidents, poor lifting techniques, stress, and repetitive activities can cause your spinal joints to shift out of alignment. Chiropractors specialize in the detection, reduction, and prevention of spinal misalignments.Let the specialists at Painfree Chiropractic & Rehab help you get back to your life.

Sport Injuries
Playing sports is undoubtedly great for you.
However, it is one of the most common ways you can injure yourself. This is especially true for those who do not warm-up well before playing. If you get hurt while playing a sport, it is important to stop immediately; you should never continue to play while in pain. After an injury, begin following the RICE protocol as soon as possible. RICE is short for: rest, ice,compression, & elevation. If the problem persists, get help.
At Painfree Chiropractic and Rehab, we utilize a wide selection of modalities.
We tailor our treatment plan to fit your individual needs; we never use a one size fits all approach. Below are some modalities we utilize in our rehabilitation protocol.
Electrical Muscle Stimulation
Uses electrical current to facilitate a single muscle or a group of muscles to contract. This is helpful in reducing muscle spasms.
Therapeutic Ultrasound
Ultrasound is a method of stimulating the tissue beneath the skin's surface using very high frequency sound waves. This modality is very helpful when it comes to targeting muscles that cannot be reached manually.
Tens
Tens units are small battery operated machine that use electrical transmission to decrease pain.
Therapeutic Exercises
Muscles are the first layer of defense when it comes to preventing injuries.
Therapeutic exercises refer to a wide range of activities that aim at restoring strength, flexibility, and stability.
Stretching exercises facilitate healing and restore flexibility. Strength training reduces the rate of reinjures.
Headaches
Headaches are among the most common disorders of the nervous system; there are many sub-categories that fall under headaches.
Appropriate diagnosis is essential to finding the right treatment. Schedule your appointment to see if we can make your headaches a thing of the past.
Neck Pain
Certain cases of neck pain can be attributed to vertebral misalignments and muscle sprains.
These type of problems can be caused by an acute injury such as whiplash or a fall. They can also be caused by poor posture and repetetive micro-injuries. During the initial visit, our chiropractor will perform a comprehensive examination to determine the exact cause of your pain. If your condition requires treatment that is beyond our scope of practice, we will refer you to the appropriate specialty.

Automobile accidents cause segmental fixations and muscle spasms which create: pain, inflammation, and loss of range of motion.
Chiropractic adjustments restore motion to the fixated segment, increases range of motion to the affected area, and decrease pain.
If you do not have health insurance, we will work on a third party lien; we will work with your attorney and wait until settlement to receive payment.
Not all chiropractors are the same; get a chiropractor who specializes in treating whiplash.
