Chiropractic Services & Massage Therapy

Chiropractic care is a drug free alternative to pain management, seeking to eliminate the cause of the symptom. Chiropractic treatments feel wonderful and can also compliment any other pain management regimen. Doctor Jones will review your history and concerns on your first visit and develop a treatment plan based on your specific needs.

Chiropractic is a primary health-care profession that specializes in the diagnosis, treatment and overall management of conditions that are due to mechanical dysfunction of the joints, particularly those of the spine, and their effects on the nervous system. Chiropractors treat problems with joints, bones and muscles, and the effects they have on the nervous system. Working on all the joints of the body, concentrating particularly on the spine, they use their hands to make often gentle, specific adjustments, the chiropractic word for manipulation, to improve the efficiency of the nervous system and release the body's natural healing ability.

Our treatments consist of a wide range of manipulative techniques designed to improve the function of the joints, relieving pain and muscle spasm. Such skilled manipulation is very specific, directed at individual joints in order to reduce strains and improve mobility in one area without disturbing another. Treatments are also supported with individual counseling and advice about the patient's lifestyle, work and exercise, in order to help in managing the condition and preventing a recurrence of the problem. In comparison with osteopaths and physiotherapists, chiropractors tend to use manipulation as the main form of treatment, as well as mechanized treatment tables and use of soft tissue or massage techniques.

DTS is a non-surgical treatment to help in the management of serious cervical, lumbar or leg pain. DTS treatment is directed at relieving pressure on structures that may be a major source of pain. It can relieve the pain associated with bulging and herniated discs, degenerative discs, facet syndrome, sciatica and headaches. DTS helps relieve pain through decompression of lumbar or cervical discs and joints that is unloading due to distraction and positioning. This cyclical painless stretching reduces pressure and promotes blood and fluid flow. This helps improve healing naturally. DTS treatment may provide the relief you’re looking for. Much of the common cause of back and neck pain is mechanical compression. Decompression is a direct, intuitive remedy - and unlike other treatments it can focus its effect at the source of the pain.

Damaged discs can cause limb pain or numbness in two ways – they can simply “refer” pain or they can pressure a nearby nerve root. True “pinched nerves” may create leg or arm pain but little back or neck pain. They are often a more serious problem and may take additional time and therapy to resolve.

Patients are given a thorough exam and diagnosis as to suitability and prognosis. Some conditions and patients are not candidates, Dr. Jones will make that determination. Treatments are performed fully clothed and the treatment is inherently safe, well tolerated and without complications. Virtually all patients report DTS Treatments are painless and often very relaxing.
