What Is Chiropractic Care?

Chiropractic care is a holistic and nonsurgical approach to helping the body heal using spinal manipulation. The spine surrounds your spinal cord and central nervous system, which is responsible for sending messages to your brain telling every muscle and organ in your body how to function. When the vertebrae within your spine are out of alignment, it can lead to pain and difficulty performing basic daily activities, such as bending, sitting, and walking. Spinal subluxations can also result in allergies, weight gain, fatigue, and stress and anxiety.

Dr. Doyle believes in locating the root cause of your pain and treating it so you can get back to enjoying life. This will involve performing x-rays of the spine and any other extremities causing you pain. During your appointment, Dr. Doyle will have you lie face down on a padded table so he can gently and effectively adjust your spine. He uses a variety of hands-on and mechanical manipulations using several different methods to correct the alignment of your spine. With routine chiropractic care, your body can naturally heal itself and restore total wellness.

How Acupuncture Can Help

Proper energy flow within your body is essential for optimal physical health. When this energy flow is disrupted, it can lead to pain and other issues. Along the surface of your skin are strategic acu-points that can be stimulated to correct energy flow. Acupuncture is an alternative procedure based in traditional Chinese medicine that helps the body naturally heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. This holistic method uses small, stainless steel needles inserted into the skin’s surface to stimulate the underlying nerves and tissues within your musculoskeletal system to address chronic and acute pain, such as:

• Migraines and headaches
• Menstrual cramps
• Neck and back pain
• Upper and lower extremity pain
• TMJ disorder

If you have lower back pain, Dr. Doyle may insert acupuncture needles in the acu-points along your lower back to reduce pain and increase proper energy flow. Acupuncture and chiropractic care are often used together to maximize results.

Dr. Doyle performs acupuncture to improve dysfunction within the musculoskeletal system of the body. While placing needles in the acu-points in the musculoskeletal system can have numerous non-musculoskeletal systemic benefits, Dr. Doyle does not directly treat any condition that does not have at it’s core a musculoskeletal component. Instead, he treats only those dysfunctional points within the musculoskeletal system that he identifies after a thorough history and examination. If treating a musculoskeletal acupuncture point produces a non-musculoskeletal benefit, that benefit is purely incidental.
