High Desert Chiropractic & Massage Therapy Clinic

At High Desert Chiropractic we have a whole body perspective and treat patients as a complete person not just their symptoms. We do this by adjusting the spine and extremities, providing stretches and exercises, and educating about nutrition and postural awareness.

WHY CHOOSE CHIROPRACTIC CARE?

There is no nurtitinal defficiency for aspirin and you should not be in pain because you are "getting old". Headaches are not normal, neither are backaches, numbness or tingling or stiffness. Chiropractic care is a natural holistic approach to health care that restores your bodys ability to function. It is effective, safe and should be considered prior to the use of most invasive procedures such as surgery, medicine, or injections. Chiropractic treats the cause of the problem not just the symptoms which you are experiencing. This is done by proper examination with a complete history as well as orthopedic and neurologic assessment. The doctor will then determine if chiropractic will be the right choice for you.

WHAT IS AN ADJUSTMENT?

An adjustment is a correction made by the doctor, to the spine or other joints of the body to achieve proper biomechanical motion. It effects the body in several ways. First it stretches the muscles, tendons and ligaments around the joint allowing the immobile area to achieve normal motion. It helps to lubricate the joint and reduce inflammation. Second it will allow the nerves in that area to function at their optimal without irritation or hinderence. This gives your body the ability to heal itself. Pain medications and aspirin will mask your symptoms but they won’t change the underlying cause of your problem.
