Chiropractic Care
IT ALL COMES BACK TO WELLNESS
At Taylor Chiropractic in Clinton, MS, chiropractic care is not just about relieving pain; it’s about enhancing even the seemingly healthy person’s function, performance, and quality of life. Chiropractic looks at not only the structural but the mental, emotional, and nutritional side of wellness. Chiropractic care ensures that the spine works properly to maximize normal nerve flow and minimize pressure on the nervous system from stress and postural strain or injury, leading to pain, dysfunction, and decreased quality of life. It is gratifying to see people of all ages turning to chiropractic as a safe and effective alternative to medication and surgery for a wide variety of health issues.
PATH TO OPTIMAL HEALTH
Chiropractors specialize in identifying spinal misalignments that can disrupt joint function and nerve health. Their primary treatment method, chiropractic adjustments, involves safe and precise manipulations of the spine and other joints to restore proper movement. This gentle technique can alleviate various conditions. In addition to spinal adjustments, expert chiropractors like Dr. Virgil Taylor employ a range of gentle techniques to enhance treatment effectiveness:
Spinal Biomechanics: This involves correcting the mechanics of the spine to improve posture and movement, addressing imbalances that can lead to pain and dysfunction.
Soft Tissue Therapy: Focusing on the muscles, ligaments, and tendons, techniques such as massage, myofascial release, and trigger point therapy are used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.
Nutrition: Chiropractors often provide nutritional counseling to support joint and nerve health, recommending anti-inflammatory foods and supplements to enhance overall wellness.
Chiropractic Techniques such as Arthrostem/Activator: These tools offer targeted spinal adjustments with gentle, repetitive motions or quick, low-force impulses, ideal for sensitive patients and precise treatments.
Additionally, chiropractors use therapies including rehabilitative exercises, Electrical Muscle Stimulation, Interferential Electrotherapy, and the application of heat and ice. They also provide valuable advice on posture, gait, and lifestyle adjustments.
Patients often receive personalized exercises and stretches to perform at home, which play a crucial role in enhancing their recovery and ensuring long-term benefits. This comprehensive approach helps patients achieve quicker, long-term recovery and maintain their health over time.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR INITIAL CONSULTATION
We will take a full history of your complaint alongside a comprehensive review of your medical history and lifestyle. Once this is done, our chiropractor will examine you to identify the root cause of your complaint. This will involve a physical examination of your spine and muscles, neurological tests as well as orthopedic tests.
Once a diagnosis has been established, our expert chiropractor, Dr. Virgil Taylor will give you a report of findings to explain the root cause of your pain and how best to treat you. He will also explain your advised treatment plan, including how many treatments you are likely to require, over what time frame, and which treatment methods are most appropriate for you.
In most cases, you will be treated on your first visit. If, on the rare occasion, you are not suitable for chiropractic care or require imaging or special testing, you will be referred to the correct facility.
The length of treatment required can vary depending on the severity and how recently the complaint started. The likely length of treatment will be discussed with you on your first visit. On average, most patients with a new injury require around 5 or 6 treatments spread over 2-3 weeks. However, each complaint is different, and your treatment plan will be tailored to suit your specific condition. If the treatment plan discussed on your first visit is followed, most people will see a full resolution of their symptoms. Patients with long-term, recurring, and chronic conditions often benefit from
maintenance care, which will also be discussed with you during your first visit.
