Neck Pain

Here at Therapeutic Solutions LLC, we believe in healing the body, not just one ailment. But many times patients see us for localized pain and discomfort, such as neck pain, and it is our first priority to treat that condition first. By treating this area, the rest of the body also starts healing thanks to better balance and harmony. Unfortunately, neck pain is a common complaint with our patients, as it can result from injuries or repetitive motions and strain.


The following causes can lead to neck pain, according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine:



  • ·         Bad posture

  • ·         Bending over for long periods of time

  • ·         Whiplash and vehicle accidents

  • ·         Sleeping in the wrong position

  • ·         Turning or twisting

  • ·         Sprains

  • ·         Medical conditions

  • ·         Infection or cancer of the spine


Pain medications only relieve the pain and discomfort for a short period of time, and it typically returns in a few hours. With chiropractic care provided by Dr. Christopher Brill, patients are addressing the cause of their neck pain, not just covering up the discomfort. This provides them with a long-term solution toward balancing their spine’s vertebrae and improving the pain continuously. Be sure to give us a call at 757-873-4131, e-mail drbrill.therapeuticsolutions@yahoo.com or visit our chiropractic office in Newport News, VA to learn more about neck pain treatments.

Low Back Pain

Here at Therapeutic Solutions, LLC, we provide chiropractic care for a variety of conditions, including low back pain. This is common among all patients, but is particularly prominent in adults. Lower back pain increases with age due to degenerative changes in the spine and vertebrae. Low back pain may also be caused by poor posture, injuries, excessive physical activity, injury to the disks of the spine, or various other medical conditions.


Low back pain may be mild or severe and be associated with worsened pain while lifting or bending, pain that comes and goes, and in combination with sciatica pain. We like to start with diagnosing the cause of the low back pain, followed by adjustments and manipulations. This allows our chiropractor to adjust the spine to help alleviate the cause of the continued back discomfort.


Chiropractic care acts as a treatment option as well as a preventative measure. With regular weekly treatments, the body remains balanced, which helps prevent lower back injuries and keeps the spine properly aligned. Call Dr. Christopher Brill at 757-873-4131 or e-mail drbrill.therapeuticsolutions@yahoo.com to discuss treatments for low back pain.

Pregnancy and Chiropractic

Pregnancy and Chiropractic


Pregnancy is an exciting time for expectant mothers.  However, as your body goes through a number of drastic changes, you can experience significant strain and pain.  We recommend that mothers-to-be visit our office for health maintenance of the spinal column, discs, and nerves throughout the pregnancy.  Chiropractic care helps to create an ideal environment for the developing baby and relieve any pregnancy pains naturally. 


As your body adjusts to holding the weight of the baby, it puts a high demand on the spine and muscles that make up your back.  This is especially true as the pregnancy progresses.  For many women, this commonly results in back pain.  Through the chiropractic adjustments and manipulations offered at our practice, we help improve spinal alignment and provide patients with safe exercises and health tips to improve your pregnancy and relieve pain.  If you or someone you know is experiencing back pain from pregnancy and you are looking for a gentle, effective, natural means of relief without resorting to medications, arrange an appointment with us.  We look forward to helping you learn more about how you can care for your health naturally throughout your pregnancy.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome


Carpal tunnel syndrome is an unfortunately common work-related injury for many that work in manufacturing, sewing, finishing, cleaning, meatpacking and other hands-on industries.  Through the chiropractic services available at our practice, we offer long lasting, safe and non-invasive ways to manage carpal tunnel syndrome.


The median nerve runs from the forearm to your hand. In patients with carpal tunnel syndrome, this nerve is compressed into the narrow tunnel at the wrist. Patients with carpal tunnel syndrome may experience:



  • Burning

  • Tingling

  • Itching

  • Numbness


Chiropractic care helps patients find relief through joint manipulation and stretching and strengthening exercises.  We invite patients to visit our office for a diagnosis, where we can better determine the treatment that will best address their individual health issues.

Sciatica and Chiropractic Care

Sciatica


Sciatica is a frustrating, reoccurring condition for many sufferers.  It is characterized by stinging, tingling, burning and numbness of the lower extremities.  This collection of symptoms is a result of pressure placed on the sciatic nerve, one of the longest nerves in the body.  Sciatica can be triggered or aggravated by abrupt movement or extended periods of sitting or standing.


Fortunately, patients can find relief from sciatica through chiropractic care.  Spinal adjustments and manipulations, as well as other therapeutic services, can help address the source of sciatic nerve pain.  By correcting misalignment, you can relieve pressure on the nerve and restore the quality of your life.  When you visit Therapeutic Solutions LLC for chiropractic care, we provide you with resources and information to help you manage your discomfort and maintain an active lifestyle.


If you are suffering from sciatica, or you know someone who is searching for lasting relief, contact our practice and learn more about the chiropractic treatment options available to you.
