Treating Your Neck And Back Pain

If neck and back pain is disrupting your life, Dr. Ronald Haydel at Haydel Chiropractic in Houma, LA, is passionate about helping you find the relief you deserve.

Chiropractic Care for Neck and Back Pain 

 Pain is never fun to deal with, but when it’s plaguing your neck or back, it can be hard to work through. In fact, it can make it difficult to sleep, lie down, stand, sit, walk, and do just about anything else you might need to do. Below, Dr. Haydel at Haydel Chiropractic of Houma, LA, shares how chiropractic care can help relieve you from neck and back pain naturally and effectively. 

Discovering the Cause 

 Pain doesn’t just appear out of nowhere – even if that’s the way it seems. It occurs when something is out of sorts in the body and is a signal that it needs to be addressed. 

Chiropractic care is an effective method for relieving pain, as it digs in to find its cause. With the neck and back, the root cause can be any or a combination of the following: 

• Misalignment 
• Disc issues 
• Pinched nerves 
• Muscle tension 
• Sprains and strains 

 Once the underlying cause or causes of pain are identified, treatment can be customized to your needs. 

Using Natural Methods That Directly Address the Cause 

 Chiropractors offer a wide range of techniques to correct the issues causing your back and neck pain. However, the exact methods used depend on your specific needs. Some highly effective methods include those listed below. 

• Decompression therapy: Decompression therapy is a very effective yet gentle technique that provides a stretch to the spinal column. This stretch not only relieves tension and pressure on the discs but also pulls herniated discs and healing nutrients in. 
• Massage therapy: Massage therapy has long been used to relieve tension and inflammation throughout the body. And it comes in many forms. We are happy to not only offer traditional massage therapy but also Aqua Massage therapy for patient relief. 
• Laser therapy: Laser therapy helps penetrate deep layers of soft tissue to break up tension, adhesions, and trigger points. It helps stimulate tissue repair and improves circulation to the treatment area. 
• Dry needling: Dry needling is a method in which tiny needles are used to treat issues in the soft tissues, including repetitive stress injuries, whiplash, trigger points, and more.
