Electric Muscle Stimulation

If you are dealing with acute or chronic pain, electric muscle stimulation is often not the first treatment option presented to you, but it is effective. More common than that, people ignore their injury or try to prevent the pain with medication. At Therapeutic Solutions LLC, we provide patients with EMS treatment and have great success healing patient’s neck, back and joint pain.
 
EMS treatment mimics the body’s nervous system by sending low frequency electrical pulses to the affected area. This will cause he muscles to contract and increase the blood circulation to the area. By utilizing and encouraging the body’s natural healing mechanisms, Dr. Christopher Brill is able to drastically reduce patient’s dependence on medications and unnecessary surgeries to resolve painful symptoms.
 
EMS therapy is a great tool for patients with the following conditions:
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Muscle Atrophy
  • Muscle Spasms
  • Sciatica
  • Sports Injuries
  • Tennis Elbow
  • Ulcer
EMS is a great tool for chiropractors. If you are suffering from any of the above conditions, call Dr. Brill to schedule an appointment 757-873-4131. You can also visit www.therapeutic-solutions-llc.com to learn more about other services Dr. Brill offers.

Cryotherapy

For those suffering with spasms and haven’t found the relief they’re looking for, it might be time to look into cryotherapy. At Therapeutic Solutions LLC, we have adopted this new technology in order to better treat our patients.
 
Cryotherapy is a procedure that helps numb painful areas as well as provides a cooling relief to the affected soft tissues. Cold applied to the area decreases the flow of this fluid into the tissues and slows the release of chemicals that cause pain. Cold decreases feeling in an area by reducing the ability of the nerve endings to conduct impulses.
 
Cold compresses are used to reduce bleeding and swelling within the injured tissue and is best used within 48 hours of your injury. Cryotherapy should not be used for patients who have the following:
  1. Circulation problems
  2. Are unconscious
  3. Those who cannot feel cold (numbness)
  4. Allergies
For those who do qualify, cryotherapy is a great solution for your back spasm and soft tissue injury problems. Cryotherapy is an excellent solution when it comes to reducing swelling and further injury in the early stages of the healing process.  For more information about our office or cryotherapy, please visit: www.therapeutic-solutions-llc.com or call us at 757-873-4131.

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.
