Back Pain Relief

Back Pain Relief San Francisco

Back pain of all kinds is extremely common. Unfortunately, many people surrender to the misbelief that they have to live the rest of their life with back pain. Many people choice to take painkillers daily or trying countless gimmicks that yield little to no results. All this is costing those hundreds or thousands of dollars. Back pain can come from many different sources and identifying that source is the first step toward customizing the correct care for you and your family.

A very common type of self-treatment that many people use for back pain is to apply a heating pad. Applying heat for approximately 20 minutes sedates the nerves, causing pain to reduce. However, the heat also causes any inflammation present to be worse, bringing on more pain once the nerves are no longer sedated. Although heat application can be good for those patients with certain types of chronic pain (or pain that has been around for at least a few months), it is much better to apply ice. Ice, especially on a new injury, sedates the nerves, reduces inflammation, and has a lasting effect. Nerves are very sensitive to both heat and ice, so whenever using either of these treatments, be sure to remove the heat or ice within 20 minutes of application, and do not use it more than once per hour. Never fall asleep with either of these self-treatments, as you can cause prolonged nerve damage.

It is important to know and understand the cause of your pain so that you may treat it appropriately. Proper treatment is the key to alleviating back pain. However, relieving the pain is just one of many steps. There is the rehabilitation process as well as lifestyle change that must be made so that your quality of life can be taken back.

Getting you out of pain and keeping you out of pain is our goal here at Green Chiropractic Clinic. Quality, affordable treatment that lets you take control of your life is the recipe you have been seeking. Stop living in pain! Call us at 415-824-7336 today!

Cervicogenic Headache Relief

Cervicogenic Headache Relief San Francisco

Cervicogenic headaches can stand alone, but more commonly are part of a broader range of headaches that overlap. As the name suggests, the culprit with a cervicogenic headache is the neck region. Injury to muscles, joints, ligaments, nerves, nerve roots, and other structures present in the neck can all contribute. Typically, reduced movement of the neck is associated with this type of headache.

Much like migraine and tension-type headaches, the ideal cervicogenic headache treatment is Chiropractic adjustments and care. Research indicates quite successful results when Chiropractic manipulation is applied to patients suffering from cervicogenic headaches, migraine headaches, and tension headaches.
