At A Healthy Back, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our Fayetteville office.
Chiropractic Care
We provide spinal correction utilizing gentle chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Robert Twaddell has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.
Corrective Exercises
We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.
Lifestyle Advice
We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each patient is a whole person, and helping them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.
Nutritional Counseling
We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient´s return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you? Do you know how these supplements and vitamins interact with one another? Robert Twaddell can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.
Low Level Laser Therapy & Acupuncture
Low Level Laser Therapy and Acupuncture offers a natural conservative treatment approaches that relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our office provides specific needle acupuncture and laser therapy that is tailored to meet the patient's condition and injury. The benefits of therapy may include increasing blood circulation, reducing swelling, relaxing muscles, relieving muscle pain and spasms, and aid in recovery and range of motion.
Spinal Disc Decompression
This advanced form of motorized traction therapy is easier, safer, and more comfortable than surgical procedures to fuse vertebrae or extract pieces of your spinal column. Dr. Robert will have you lie down on a special treatment table that can be programed to impart various degrees of outward-pulling (flexion-distraction) force to the spine. This action creates a little extra space between the vertebrae at the trouble spot. This produces a negative (vacuum) pressure that brings bulging or herniated discs back into their optimal position.
In addition to relieving pinched nerves, spinal decompression can infuse a bulging disc with water. This "plumps up" the disc to something of its former height, which in turn eases the stress on facet joints. We can administer this technique on an ongoing basis if need be, giving you an effective source of drug-free pain relief.
