STRESS




How does stress affect YOU?




For some, its an upset stomach. For others, recurring headaches, back pain, or muscle stiffness. Still others respond with nervous twitches, allergic reactions, or sensitivities to chemicals. Regardless of your particular response, the function of your nervous system is involved. Thats why chiropractic can be so helpful.




Stress has been with us since the beginning of time. Every era has faced its share of threatening situations. Today, the stressof work, project dealines, personal conflicts, and the demands on our time and money, take a huge toll on our health.

It may surprise you that your "feelings" of stress may have nothing to do with the stress in your life. Poor posture, prolonged sitting, an accident, or even an old injury can lead tospinal stress. Chronic pain and muscle tension can cause you to experience nervousness and irritability.

The chiropractic approach to stress is to help normalize the function of your nervous system by removing interferences caused by spinal joint dysfunction.

TESTIMONIAL

thank you to Brigitte for her testimonial and kind words..................



ANOTHER
CHIROPRACTIC
SUCCESS STORY...


Name: BRIGITTE L.

Hello, my name is Brigitte. My success story is a great one, if you were in my shoes.

Almost 2 years ago I visited Dr. Parker with severe neck, back and right leg problems. Being on pain medicine for 15 years and nerve blocks the last 4 years left me feeling hopeless.

Dr. Parker's program is great for the "can you fix me?" question. Making me feel better and hoping to be able to walk again was more than I expected.

My program is now once a week, but I worked hard to reach this point. To my surprise, the supplement program has worked wonders. Who knew that this would be the plus to an A grade! How often do you find a doctor who thinks outside the box to help his patients? Really, how many doctors are truly like that?

Pictures are worth a thousand words. My picture was one of pain with days of doing little to nothing. Now my picture is much brighter as I am going to the gym and getting into shape with little to no pain.

THANK YOU DR. PARKER AND YOUR CARING MEDICAL STAFF!

Mid Back Pain Can Be a Serious Symptom


The mid back area is highly reactive and can compensate for the pelvis and lower back region or the upper neck and cervical spine area. Sitting at a computer or driving for long periods of time are two common origins of mid back-related pain. Mid back pain can also be associated with a referred pain or complication from one of the organ systems in the body such as the liver or kidneys.


Mid back pain is one of the most common complaints that patients report when they first visit a chiropractor. the mid back area is called the thoracic spine. There are normally twelve bones with a matching twelve pairs of ribs that make up the mid back area.


Symptoms of mid back pain can range from muscle tightness and spasms, trigger points (areas of acute spasm and pain), restricted range of motion when bending or twisting and sharp or stabbing pains from the back, radiating to the front. the rib cage can also become distorted causing symptoms that mimic respiratory or cardiac problems such as shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat and fast or slow heart rhythms.


This is whyb you should be evaluated by a doctor of chiropractic whenever mid back pain or symptoms occur. Dr Parker specializes in the musculoskeletal system and its biomechanical-related functions. A complete history and exam will help determine the origin of the problem and how best to proceed. A corrective care plan will then be designedfor you to alleviate your symptoms and correct the underlying problems.
