Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic philosophy centers around the idea that the hierarchy of the body is from the top down and inside out. The brain is the central processing unit of the body, and spinal cord is the communication super-highway to all parts of your body. These two structures are so important that they are fully encased in bone! It is because of the importance of the spine, as the home of the spinal cord and nerves of the body, that we focus the Chiropractic adjustments on the spine. Without proper communication between the brain and the body, there’s no way to achieve optimal health.

Chiropractic Adjustments  De Queen, AR

Chiropractic Adjustments

A Chiropractic adjustment can make you feel so much better! At simply Chiropractic our motto is “you’re an adjustment away from an awesome day!“ Your body does not want to be out of alignment and that’s exactly what an adjustment can help address. An adjustment is also known as chiropractic manipulation, manual manipulation, or spinal manipulation. The adjustment refers to the corrections made in abnormal spine joint movements in the spine or extremities. Abnormal spinal movements or fixations are generally called “subluxations.”

Chiropractic adjustments can be done in many ways. Dr. Ericksen attended Parker University in Dallas, which taught nine different chiropractic adjustment techniques. Some of these involve high velocity thrusts apply to the vertebra, where others are very light and gentle. Depending on the needs of your body and your tolerance level, Dr. Ericksen is able to provide the most effective and most comfortable adjustment for you.

The goal chiropractic treatment is to illuminate as many subluxations as possible, increase the range of motion, reduce nerve irritability, and improve mobility. All of this is done in order to improve the communication of the nerves between the brain in the body. So really, chiropractors are nerve doctors that use the skeletal and muscular system to provide relief and improve function to the body, optimizing the quality of life potential of the individual.

Although many people visit their chiropractor and have an adjustment when something feels out of alignment or to get out of pain, regular chiropractic visits will help you avoid falling back into familiar pain patterns. When your body is functioning optimally, with regular maintenance care, many injuries are not as bad, and the recovery from them is a lot faster.

If you’re having one of those days when you’re not in the best mood, can get adjusted! Your body will feel much better, which will naturally improve your mood. That’s why we say, you’re an adjustment away from an awesome day!

Myofascial Release  De Queen, AR

Myofascial Release

Myofascial release is an intervention administered to various patients to alleviate pain or restrictive tissue problems. The release treatment usually involves the application of gentle or moderate pressure on the connective tissues and leads to relaxation and eventual elongation of the fascia therein. These restrictions are often caused by traumatic accidents or inflammations of the soft tissue. Some patients get them as an after-effect of surgery. They always result in muscular tension and spasm of sharp pain. They cannot be detected through standard diagnosis tests like the x-ray scan. It is essential for a patient to visit a doctor or physiotherapy expert once they notice restriction of movement in the hip area or shoulder. Painful backs can also be a sign of the restriction and can only be treated through the Myofascial Release procedures.

What to expect during therapy
If you have never undergone a Myofascial Release procedure before, you might wonder what will be done. There is no need to panic any way, since it is a minor therapy intervention meant to alleviate any pain that could be as a result of fascia muscle pain and restriction. Here is what you can expect if you visit a standard therapist for your myofascial pain treatment.

  • The therapist might have to interview you about what you think the cause of the pain could be. They may also palpitate the affected area to identify the particular fascia that needs to be massaged and given due attention during the procedure.
  • A standard treatment should last anywhere from 30 minutes to one hour, but should not last longer than that as that may lead to soreness and fatigue.
  • You may experience considerable relief, but if the case is severe, you may need to go for another session or two in the subsequent days.
  • The treatment does not require the use of any equipment and creams or gels. The therapist will only need their hands to manipulate and apply slight pressure to the trigger points and affected muscles.

Corrective Exercises

Corrective exercises are the use of bodily movements and/or postures to restore desirable changes in diseased or injured tissues. The corrective exercises are movement strategies that minimize or eliminate compensation. Corrective exercises should precede more integrated exercises, because they can cue the patient’s motor system to respond in a more desirable way and assist in removing or improving biomechanical constraints.

Acupuncture  De Queen, AR

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is an old healing practice of traditional Chinese medicine dating back over 4,000 years. It still remains effective today as a way to strengthen the body rather than merely treating symptoms. It is primarily used to relieve pain as well as treat other conditions. More than 3 million Americans and 200,000 children in the U.S. have had acupuncture to help relieve a symptom or condition. Because of its low side effects, it has been the treatment of choice for many doctors across the country. It is even more popular in other countries.

IV Therapy

Services are limited due to supply and demand. Please reach out for more information if interested in this service.

At Simply Chiropractic, we are pleased to offer IV therapies to our patients. We offer a wide range of treatments, from simple hydration to more customized therapies, including unique combinations of vitamins and minerals. We tailor each IV therapy session to the individual, depending on their needs and existing conditions.

The primary benefit of IV therapy is that it delivers the needed products directly to the bloodstream. Rather than waiting for nutrients to be absorbed through the digestive system, our patients can quickly receive them where the body will actually utilize them. Most therapies take between 30 and 90 minutes to administer, depending upon the therapy and your body.

IV therapy can help with a wide range of concerns from weight loss to anti-aging and may ease the following symptoms and more:

  • Dehydration
  • Stress
  • Muscle soreness or fatigue
  • Common cold
  • Low energy and fatigue

Our doctor will be able to cover the available options and create a custom treatment plan for each patient, depending on their specific desires, needs, and schedules.

If you have questions about IV therapy or would like to schedule an appointment, please call our office at (469) 224-0222 today!
