Symptoms & Conditions
Neck pain
Neck pain can come in a variety of intensities, from a nagging pain to a sharp stabbing pain. The neck might feel stiff and hurts when you move your head. The pain can start light, but develop over time due to wrong posture and/or stress. However, sudden neck movements or for example a car accident might also cause severe neck pain. Neck pain can come with headaches or dizziness. Neck pain might also radiate down the arm, like nerve root pain.
Headaches
Migraine and tension headache are most common. Tension headache feels like a dull pain, tightness or pressure around the forehead and/or back of the head. Tension might build up from the neck and shoulder region.
Migraines can manifest in migraine with aura or migraine without aura. Migraine with aura starts with visual and/or sensory disturbances, like flashes of light, before the pain starts. In both manifestations, the intense pain concentrates around one eye or one side of the face. Migraines can cause dizziness, nausea and/or vomiting, and most people experience sensitivity to light and sound.
Pain between shoulder blades
Irritation between the shoulder blades can emerge from a nagging pain to a sharp stabbing pain in the upper back. The pain can start light, but develop over time due to wrong posture and/or stress. However a single wrong movement might also cause pain. The pain can come with the feeling of tightness of the chest. The pain can also radiate towards the arms.
Low back pain (lumbago, sciatica or disc herniation)
Lumbago, sciatica or disc herniation cause pain in the lower back. The pain can range from a nagging pain to a sharp stabbing pain in the lower back. It can also make the lower back feel stiff. The pain can develop over time due to wrong posture or stress. However sudden movements or for example a fall might also cause back pain. In case of sciatica or disc herniation the pain can radiate into the leg towards the knee or even the foot, like nerve root pain.
Pregnancy related pelvic problems
During and shortly after pregnancy there is a chance of pelvic problems. Symptoms are stabbing pain in the pubic area and a deep irritating pain in the lower back and pelvic. Furthermore, you can experience a radiating pain down the legs or numbness in the legs and feet. Chiropractic care can offer treatment to these conditions, where it considers the stage of pregnancy during both examination and treatment. The treatment table can be adjusted to fit the belly and a specially designed cushion can offer further support if needed. Read more
Numbness in the arms and/or legs
Numbness, tingling sensation or loss of strength in the arms and/or legs can have various causes. Quite often these complaints can be related to nerve root irritation in the neck, lower back or other areas. Increased muscle tone or reduced joint mobility (e.g. elbow or ankle) can cause local nerve root irritation.
Sport injuries (e.g. heel spur, tennis or golfers elbow)
Pain in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee or ankle can be resolved with chiropractic care. Problems like tennis or golfers elbow, groin or hamstring injury, heel spur, plantar fasciitis or achilles tendon injuries can also be relieved with chiropractic care. Read more
