We address the underlying causes of joint pain such as posture (this is huge) muscle imbalances, joint alignment and nutrition. Our treatments work to resolve a wide range of joint pain and other health problems by treating the root causes when possible. All joints are subjected to stresses, trauma, and over use. As a result joints in the foot, knee, shoulder etc. can misaligned and ligaments may strain.

After decades of these imbalances surgery may be necessary to repair or replace the joint. However, it makes more sense to maintain joint alignment, muscle balance & ligament health so that surgery and drugs are less likely to be needed as we age.

Mindfulness

To be mindful is to be awake and aware in the present. This means that you are focused on what you are doing, when you are doing it. It includes being aware of your body, your posture and how your body feels doing different things. It is also being aware of thoughts and emotions moment by moment, not analyzing, comparing or judging your emotions and thoughts, but noting them.

The Practice

Report

Lifeline Chiropractic is a provider of comprehensive and GENTLE health care designed to correct the underlying cause or causes of health problems, not to simply cover up the pain. Treating the cause of simple health problem such as neck pain, abdominal bloating or headaches is not really simple. That is why most doctors do not attempt to treat the cause of many common health problems, but simply cover up symptoms with medication.

Types of Adjustment used at Lifeline

Report

Many people are understandably interested in knowing what type of adjustments we use at Lifeline. Many chiropractors use high force manipulation, the kind where you often hear a crack. Also common are chiropractors who use a lower force hand held adjusting instrument called an activator. A similar tool, usually called an electric adjusting instrument is electric which can give rapid taps, like the activator but at the rate of about 3 per second. There are sustained pressure adjustments where finger pressure is applied to a vertebra over a period of about 20 seconds.
