Symptoms and Conditions

WHY CONSULT US?

Symptoms of pain are often our body’s way of telling us that it is unable to adapt to a given situation—hence the distress signals, which inevitably lead a person to consult a chiropractor, although an increasing number of people do so because they understand the benefits of a preventive approach.

Chiropractic care is, in fact, about treating the individual and helping them to heal naturally without the aid of drugs or surgery. At OrthoChiro, our primary intent is to help you understand the cause of your discomfort, after which we can propose solutions tailored to your particular needs.

Here is a non-exhaustive list of conditions for which people regularly consult a chiropractor:

The effectiveness of chiropractic care for the treatment of many of these conditions is based on scientific data; in other cases treatment effectiveness is based on empirical data (clinical experience), which is no less useful in terms of patient health. One thing is certain, chiropractic care helps individuals address their health as a whole by normalizing neurological function through structural and functional musculoskeletal improvement.
