Pain in the neck and shoulder can be utterly debilitating and can vastly interfere with a patient’s ability to perform basic daily tasks. Dr. Baker at Baker Chiropractic & Rehab in Maryville, MO, provides relief and restored health and motion for chronic and acute neck and shoulder pain for patients throughout the area.
Chiropractic can provide outstanding relief to those suffering from acute or chronic pain in their neck or shoulders. By addressing the underlying cause of the pain in a natural and non-invasive way, a chiropractic doctor can relieve pain, restore motion and flexibility, and allow patients to feel healthier than ever.
A chiropractor will interview the patient about their medical history, and conduct a complete physical exam to determine the cause of the pain. Next, a plan of care will be developed that is specifically tailored to the patient. This plan could involve spinal manipulation and other manual therapies as well as exercise, diet, and changes to the patient’s lifestyle to reduce the chances of recurrence in the future.
Chiropractic care does not end with adjusting the spine. It rather encompasses a holistic approach to wellness that covers the patient’s entire body and lifestyle. This can result in a level of healing and health that many patients have never before experienced.
