Many people do not realize that not only do Chiropractors treat most injuries but Chiropractors are the best place to start. Our eductaion, experience and training at Arizona Spinal Care in Scottsdale is completely dedicated to nerve, muscle, bone and joint pain. If we can't help you we will refer you to somewhere or someone who can.

There is nothing worse than starting with the wrong type of Doctor, bad advice, a poor diagnosis and treatment plan or take these pills and we'll wait and see approach. The window for full healing is short and small before chronc pain and dysfunction set in so you have to get it right the first time and ASAP.

Here are 3 examples.

1) SPRAIN / STRAIN

A sprain is to a ligament and a strain is to a muscle.
A few require x-ray or MRI for possible tear but most respond quickly to heat / ice, ultrasound, muscle stim, soft tissue therapy and Chiropractic adjustments.

2)KNEE / SHOULDER PAIN

Pain while weight bearing, stiffness, aching and decreased range of motion are all common symptoms. The causes vary from arthritis, scar tissue, disuse, overuse, neck and hip dysfunction or maybe an actual ligament injury.

We are trained in full orthopedic examination of the areas and selecting the right physiotherapy, rehab and home care. Again if needed than an MRI and an orthopedic or pain management consult will be ordered by our office.

3)BACK PAIN OR NUMBNESS AND TINGLING IN THE LEG

The most common diagnosis and treatment we perform daily.

Get this. 3% of all back pain are herniated dics. Of that only 5% need surgery and of that only half are succesful.

Most back and leg pain are from a weak spine and fatigued back muscles that refer nerve pain to the leg. Nearly all of these respond exceptionally well to our care.

While there are many more conditions we diagnose and treat, these are just a few that have been simplified to get the point across.

For more conditions please refer to the "Conditions" section on our website www.arizonaspinalcare.com

Most importantly call us at Arizona Spinal Care in the Scottsdale Airpark 85260 @ 480-513-9580 to schedule a thorough consultation, history, appropriate and proper examination for the best advice on your individual problems and needs.
