Benefits of Chiropractic Care and Mothers to Be

At Therapeutic Solutions LLC, we are highly trained in prenatal chiropractic care. Most people don’t see the connection between chiropractic and pregnancy, but ask any mother who has gone through a pregnancy with chiropractic care at least once, and she will tell you that chiropractic care makes pregnancy and delivery easier and faster. The biggest concern mothers-to-be have is whether or not chiropractic care will hurt the baby. Simply put, no, it will not harm your baby. Dr. Christopher Brill has the knowledge and experience in treating pregnant women with chiropractic care and uses special approaches to make his adjustments safe and comfortable for you and your child.
 
Many medical experts recommend chiropractic care during pregnancy because it helps maintain pelvic balance. A balanced pelvis gives a baby more room to move into the correct birth position. This avoids some of the potential fallbacks of delivery. Other benefits include:
  • Reducing back, neck and joint pain
  • Relieving pressure from the spine and maintaining better posture
  • Reducing nerve stress to promote healthy development of the mother and baby
  • Correcting a breech baby
  • Restoring joints to ensure optimum range of motion
Dr. Brill provides chiropractic care for pregnant women that include an examination of the spinal column for spinal distortions or imbalances, known as vertebral subluxations, which can affect the function of the entire body. If Dr. Brill finds subluxations in your body, he will correct them by using chiropractic spinal adjustments.

Whiplash Injuries

Whiplash is an injury that occurs in a person's neck following a sudden acceleration-deceleration force that causes unrestrained, rapid forward and backward movement of the head and neck. This injury is commonly ignored or mistreated because patients do not always seek treatment following the event. Our staff and of course, Dr. Christopher Brill, specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of whiplash injuries.
 
This condition can be very painful if left untreated. Fortunately, this is not a life threatening injury but it can lead to future disability. While most people involved in a car accident recover quickly without and chronic pain, some will experience symptoms for years after the injury. The most common symptoms associated with whiplash include:
  • Pain or stiffness in the neck
  • Headaches
  • Shoulder pain
  • Dizziness
  • General weakness in the arms and neck
Immediately following an accident, patients should seek a consultation with Dr. Brill. His extensive training in the field has provided him the opportunity to immediately diagnose and treat whiplash. Whiplash is considered a soft-tissue injury, meaning there is no structural damage, just damage to the muscles, ligaments and tendons in the injured area. Whiplash is easily treatable through chiropractic care.
 
Dr. Brill will treat whiplash through various spinal manipulations, muscle relaxation or stimulation, exercise routines and lifestyle changes. For more information visit our website at www.therapeutic-solutions-llc.com or feel free to contact Dr. Brill & staff at 757-873-4131.

Diversified Technique

Diversified technique is the most widely used chiropractic manipulative technique. Dr. Christopher Brill utilizes this technique to help alleviate pain and properly align the spine. Its objective is to restore proper movement and alignment to the spine while also restoring joint function.
 
Dr. Brill will begin with an analysis of your spine. This will involve a case history and possibly X-rays of your spine. Once the area of pain is located and the malposition of one or more spinal bones is identified, a specific manual thrust is administered. The direction, speed, depth and angle of the adjustment that are used are the result of years of training, experience and a thorough understanding of spinal mechanics. The energy delivered during the thrust may produce a slight “popping” sound from the shifting of gas and fluids in the joint.

Radiculitis

Radiculitis is inflammation and possible damage to a nerve as it exits the spinal cord and progresses into the arm or leg. The most common cause of inflammation of the nerve root is an arthritic process or a tear in the disc or facet joint capsule that spills toxic joint fluid on the nerve. At Therapeutic Solutions LLC, we offer non-invasive, non-surgical treatment options for those suffering from radiculitis.
 
Unless there are concerns of nerve death or other permanent injury to the patient, the first step for treating radiculitis should be through conservative and not surgical intervention. As a chiropractic practice, it is our goal to alleviate pain without resorting to surgery. Non-Surgical treatment for radiculitis includes the following:
  • Heat and/or cold therapy
  • Exercises to help strengthen your back
  • Anti-inflammatory medications
  • Physical therapy combined with activity modification

Intersegmental Traction Tables

Intersegmental traction tables gently help reestablish the normal ranges of the body’s spine. These tables also help facilitate muscle relaxation and reduce muscle spasms. It has been shown that daily use of an intersegmental traction table greatly accelerates recovery progress from a back injury. We utilize this technology at Therapeutic Solutions LLC so our patients are not only comfortable while on the table, but they are actually working with them to improve their health.
 
When the spine's postural muscles (the muscles that hold you upright) are traumatized, or negatively impacted from an accident, injury, fatigue, or poor posture, spasms occur. Our intersegmental traction table carefully lengthens the postural muscles of your spine in a comfortable, even manner and allows normal joint motion, circulation and mobility to return.
 
During a 10-minute session, the intersegmental roller table interacts with your body in a massage-like fashion. The contact pressure can easily be adjusted to suit individual needs and sensitivities. Thanks to its quiet, unique and precision-patented motion design, the intersegmental traction table treats all body sizes, shapes, and weights equally and effectively, including children.
