  • Why does my neck always crack?

    Constant cracking can be a sign of instability in the neck. However if there is nothing wrong the sound is just movement of the bone segments on top of each other.

  • Can a chiropractor break your neck?

    If mishandled, anyone can break your neck.... A chiropractor has several years of training before they are even licensed. They must prove themselves with national exams as well as a doctorate degree in order to be able to work on another person. Some may be more aggressive than others, but the bottom line is your neck is in good hands. A chiropractor will not break your neck. If you are concerned, make sure you mention this to your chiropractor and they can recommend or perform gentler maneuvers than the traditional movement you can see on YouTube videos. READ MORE

  • Tinnitus and chiropractic care? Really?

    In order to understand how chiropractic can help you have to understand what happens during a whiplash injury. First the head and neck go in one direction and suddenly stop and then snaps in the other direction. This shaking can rip or tear ligament. It can shift or damage bone alignment. It can also negatively impact nerve impulses in the area. This trauma can cause all sorts of symptoms ranging from: concussion, head-aches, neck stiffness, sharp or shooting pains into the arms, numbness or tingling, and and even tinnitus. Chiropractic care can help to stabilize the neck by realigning the bones in the right position. This may help to balance irregular nerve impulses which may be creating the tinnitus. READ MORE

    Electric stimulation is the use of electrodes to help with musculoskeletal pain.
