Cold laser Therapy/Treatment

The lasers used at Central Chiropractic Clinic are certified as Cold Laser.  For the past 30 years the technology of Cold Laser Therapy (also known as Low Level Laser Therapy) has been formally accepted in North America and in many other parts of the world such as Europe, Russia and Japan.  In all this time there have been no recorded long-term adverse effects from low level laser therapy.  It is considered to be non-invasive, painless and safe.

Cold Laser Therapy uses laser light energy to stimulate cells to function optimally.  In the body, light sensitive chromophores and other elements within the cell absorb energy, initiating a series of important photochemical changes such as increased production of ATP. The mitochondria and Kreb’s Cycle stimulation initiates the production of ATP, providing the cell with the extra energy needed to accelerate the healing process and positively influence pain.  These activities can occur in all types of cells  and includes, ligament, nerves, cartilage and muscle.

Low Level Cold Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a Handheld, non-invasive, light-emitting medical device which is used over different areas of the body. It provides an unmatched advantage in the treatment of conditions such as; Back pain, Slipped disc, prolapsed disc, herniated disc, Trapped nerves. Lower back pain. Sacroiliac Joint inflammation

Ankle sprains and injuries.

Heel and foot pain injuries Plantar fascitis

Knee pain, injuries, tears, Runners Knee, inflammation

Chiropractic Treatment.

Chiropractors Are fully Registered

Chiropractors are fully registered in the UK with The General Chiropractic Council (BCA) and the British Chiropractic Association (BCA). Chiropractors usually get awarded either Bachelor of Science degree or Master of Science degree upon graduation. You should always check there credentials, this is important in the respect of their professional liability insurance.  Chiropractors aim to diagnose and treat problems associated with the joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves, especially of those relating to the spine restoring normal function of the body. They rely on using a hands-on approach by the process of manipulation of the spine without the use of drugs surgery. Occasionally the manipulation of the extremities is required to alleviate symptoms.

Founded in 1895, chiropractic treatment was once thought of as a purely complementary and alternative therapy, their importance is now widely recognised by medical and healthcare professionals as a beneficial and legitimate branch of therapy in the treatment of spinal and musculo-skeletal conditions. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommends chiropractic treatment within NHS.

Chiropractic in Sport

In modern sport, increasing levels of intensity have brought extra physical demands from athletes. This has also unfortunately led to an increase in injuries. Fast moving, high contact and tactical positioning based competition has led to an increased pressure on backs and musculo-skeletal systems. Injuries can come in a variety of types. Some can be played through, others lead to time on the sidelines and even worse still, there are occasions when injuries fail to respond to traditional treatment. However, in recent years we have seen the emergence of chiropractic treatment geared towards the needs of an athlete. The treatment has always stressed the importance of maintaining proper function in all areas of body which in turn promotes fast and natural healing from injuries, thus making the treatment nearly ideal for athletic training. Based on the founding principal of human body as a fully integrated being, chiropractic treatment places its focus on spinal, muscular, tendon, ligament, nerve and joint related care. Professionals from a variety of sports both international and domestic now deploy chiropractic therapy and a primary source of treatment with some of the attending specialists at the Olympic Games falling into the category of trained chiropractors.

Chiropractic addresses the function of central nervous system which is the “master system” of the body controlling ad regulating function of all other subsystems including musculoskeletal system. Properly aligned skeletal system would improve performance, reduce the risk of injury and improve healing of existing injuries.

Chiropractors specialize in the non-drug treatment of musculoskeletal problems, including joint sprains and disc injuries. To some extent, the chiropractic approach to sports injuries is similar to that of traditional medical care.

Usually chiropractor’s initial examination would include standard orthopaedic and neurological tests to diagnose whether a particular pain is due to a strain, sprain, or disc problem. X-ray examination is also performed to screen for fractures and other bone disorders, such as osteoporosis.  

Chiropractic management of sports injuries often includes widely used physical therapies such as ice, Cold laser therapy to reduce swelling and inflammation, or electronic muscle stimulation for muscle strains and spasms. 

The Importance of Restoring the Structural Body Balance.

Chiropractic management of sport injuries has an emphasis on adjustment and improving function of spinal and other joints through manipulation as well as restoring overall structural balance of the body. Chiropractor assess the effect of the muscle injury on the rest of the body as it would cause tightening of other muscle and joints in order to maintain general balance. Chiropractic adjustments help to restore the natural balance that was present before the injury.

Professionals from a variety of sports both international and domestic now deploy chiropractic therapy and a primary source of treatment with some of the attending specialists at the Olympic Games falling into the category of trained chiropractors.

Chiropractors are fully registered practitioners who aim to diagnose and treat pain in those suffering problems of the joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves, especially of those relating to the spine, and try to restore normal function of the body. They rely on using a hands-on approach by the process of manipulation of the spine without the use of drugs surgery. Occasionally the manipulation of the extremities is required to alleviate symptoms.

Founded in 1895, chiropractic treatment was once thought of as a purely complementary and alternative therapy, their importance is now widely recognised by medical and healthcare professionals as a beneficial and legitimate aid in the treatment of spinal conditions. The theory is based upon the misalignment of the spine, particularly that which interferes with the nervous system.

Many mechanical problems of the back can benefit from the consultation of a chiropractor, with treatments including the freeing of stiff joints which in turn will reduce nerve irritation.

During initial consultation chiropractor will take a full history from and perform a thorough physical examination. Using a holistic approach the chiropractor will ask many questions relating to occupation, diet, existing exercise programmes and lifestyle and a treatment plan devised using this information. Apart from the manual treatment chiropractor will also work in improving the posture and will advise on preventative measures to avoid a recurrence of pain by suggesting activities and exercises that will help strengthen the spinal components, and those to avoid.

What Is Chiropractic Treatment? 

Chiropractic treatment has gained increasing acceptance by both consumers and insurance agencies, many of which now offer plans covering the treatment. Chiropractic is  safe, there are a few risks associated with it.

Chiropractic, which means ” done by hand,” is a  system founded approximately 100 years ago by Daniel David Palmer. It is based on the theory that many illnesses originate in the spine, and for this reason it focuses on spinal manipulation. Chiropractic physicians may also utilize physical therapy techniques, as well as methods drawn from other branches of alternative medicine.

Clinical Applications

Most visits to chiropractors are for back neck joint pain, but it is also commonly used to treat:

• Headache  pains
• Neck, shoulders, back (disc injury), hip injury and conditions including joint  pain
• Pain in other areas such as the TMJ ( jaw), headaches, migraine, soft tissue injuries, knees, ankle injury and conditions.
• Pregnancy-related pelvic pain

How Chiropractic Works 

Since its origin, chiropractic theory has based itself on “vertebral subluxations,” or vertebrae that have shifted position in the spine. These subluxations are said to impede nerve outflow and contribute to dysfunction of various organs. A chiropractic treatment is supposed to “realign” these “missed placed” vertebrae. , this is called an “adjustment.”

Other theories suggest that chiropractic manipulation may relieve pain by “loosening” vertebrae that have become relatively immobile rather than by changing their position. In addition, the sudden movements of manipulation may alter the response patterns of nerves in the spine, again relieving pain.

Depending on your condition, chiropractic treatment is usually conducted on a two- or three-times-a-week basis, for a month or so. Some chiropractors feel that regular care is necessary to help maintain sound health and fitness. Others will ask to see you only as needed. This depends on your injury or condition at the time of your consultation

What Do Studies Show About Chiropractic Treatment? 

Does It Work? 

There is evidence that chiropractic treatment may relieve pain. The best evidence regards migraine headaches and other forms of headache. Studies on chiropractic for back, neck, hip, knee ankle and joint pain have by far the best results. Chiropractic treatment does seem to be very effective compared with other commonly used treatments for these conditions.

Is It Safe? 

Chiropractic manipulation is safe, rarely causing significant side effects. The most common reaction is local discomfort following therapy, which generally disappears within hours of treatment. Other side effects include temporary headache, tiredness, and discomfort radiating from the site of the adjustment. To put this in perspective, however, the rate of complications from chiropractic is extremely low; according to many estimates, only one complication per million individual sessions occurs. Among people receiving a course of treatment involving manipulation of the neck,

By comparison, serious medical complications involving common drugs in the ibuprofen family (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs) are far more common. Among people using them for arthritis, NSAIDs result in hospitalizations at a rate of about 5 in 1200 people, and death at a rate of 5 in 12,000. The rate of complications with these common over-the-counter drugs is perhaps 100-500 times greater than with chiropractic.

Is It Cost Effective? 

There is a lot of evidence that chiropractic may be less expensive than other forms of care.

If You Decide To Visit A Chiropractor 

If you’re suffering from headaches, migraine, TMJ ( jaw) pain, back pain or neck pain,shoulders, hip, pregnancy-related pelvic pain, joint pain, knee and ankle injuries and conditions  including soft tissue injuries seeking chiropractic care is worth a try, since it appears to be at least as helpful as other commonly used therapies. Chiropractic treatment is now available within United States of America’s  Military,and Medisure with the help and insistence from President Barack Obama.

Look for a chiropractor who:

• Does not require long-term or preventive care
• Does not routinely take x-rays, However, X-rays may be necessary, so always look for a chiropractor within house x-ray facilities, for this can be very important in diagnosing certain conditions.
• Does not object to you seeing a specialist for a second opinion
• Limits his practice to the treatment of musculoskeletal problems (pain/discomfort associated with muscles and joints)

In modern sport, increasing levels of intensity have brought increased physical requirements from athletes. This has also unfortunately led to an increase in injuries. Fast moving, high contact and tactical positioning based competition has led to an increased pressure on backs and physical structural systems. Injuries can come in a variety of types. Some can be played through, others lead to time on the sidelines and even worse still, there are occasions when injuries fail to respond to traditional treatment. However, in recent years we have seen the emergence of chiropractic treatment geared towards the needs of the athlete.

The treatment has always stressed the importance of maintaining efficiency in all areas of body function which in turn promotes fast and natural healing abilities, thus making the treatment nearly ideal for athletic training. Based on the founding principal of a person as a fully integrated being, chiropractic treatment places its focus on spinal, muscular, tendon, ligament, nerve and joint related care. Professionals from a variety of sports both international and domestic now deploy chiropractic therapy and a primary source of treatment with some of the attending specialists at the Olympic Games falling into the category of trained chiropractors.

Chiropractors are fully registered practitioners who aim to diagnose and treat pain in those suffering problems of the joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves, especially of those relating to the spine, and try to restore normal function of the body. They rely on using a hands-on approach by the process of manipulation of the spine without the use of drugs surgery. Occasionally the manipulation of the extremities is required to alleviate symptoms.

Founded in 1895, chiropractic treatment was once thought of as a purely complementary and alternative therapy, their importance is now widely recognised by medical and healthcare professionals as a beneficial and legitimate aid in the treatment of spinal conditions. The theory is based upon the misalignment of the spine, particularly that which interferes with the nervous system.

Many mechanical problems of the back can benefit from the consultation of a chiropractor, with treatments including the freeing of stiff joints which in turn will reduce nerve irritation.

During initial consultation chiropractor will take a full history from and perform a thorough physical examination. Using a holistic approach the chiropractor will ask many questions relating to occupation, diet, existing exercise programmes and lifestyle and a treatment plan devised using this information. Apart from the manual treatment chiropractor will also work in improving the posture and will advise on preventative measures to avoid a recurrence of pain by suggesting activities and exercises that will help strengthen the spinal components, and those to avoid.

What Is Chiropractic Treatment? 

Chiropractic treatment has gained increasing acceptance by both consumers and insurance agencies, many of which now offer plans covering the treatment. Chiropractic is  safe, there are a few risks associated with it.

Chiropractic, which means ” done by hand,” is a  system founded approximately 100 years ago by Daniel David Palmer. It is based on the theory that many illnesses originate in the spine, and for this reason it focuses on spinal manipulation. Chiropractic physicians may also utilize physical therapy techniques, as well as methods drawn from other branches of alternative medicine.

Clinical Applications

Most visits to chiropractors are for back neck joint pain, but it is also commonly used to treat:

• Headache  pains
• Neck, shoulders, back (disc injury), hip injury and conditions including joint  pain
• Pain in other areas such as the TMJ ( jaw), headaches, migraine, soft tissue injuries, knees, ankle injury and conditions.
• Pregnancy-related pelvic pain

How Chiropractic Works 

Since its origin, chiropractic theory has based itself on “vertebral subluxations,” or vertebrae that have shifted position in the spine. These subluxations are said to impede nerve outflow and contribute to dysfunction of various organs. A chiropractic treatment is supposed to “realign” these “missed placed” vertebrae. , this is called an “adjustment.”

Other theories suggest that chiropractic manipulation may relieve pain by “loosening” vertebrae that have become relatively immobile rather than by changing their position. In addition, the sudden movements of manipulation may alter the response patterns of nerves in the spine, again relieving pain.

Depending on your condition, chiropractic treatment is usually conducted on a two- or three-times-a-week basis, for a month or so. Some chiropractors feel that regular care is necessary to help maintain sound health and fitness. Others will ask to see you only as needed. This depends on your injury or condition at the time of your consultation

What Do Studies Show About Chiropractic Treatment? 

Does It Work? 

There is evidence that chiropractic treatment may relieve pain. The best evidence regards migraine headaches and other forms of headache. Studies on chiropractic for back, neck, hip, knee ankle and joint pain have by far the best results. Chiropractic treatment does seem to be very effective compared with other commonly used treatments for these conditions.

Is It Safe? 

Chiropractic manipulation is safe, rarely causing significant side effects. The most common reaction is local discomfort following therapy, which generally disappears within hours of treatment. Other side effects include temporary headache, tiredness, and discomfort radiating from the site of the adjustment. To put this in perspective, however, the rate of complications from chiropractic is extremely low; according to many estimates, only one complication per million individual sessions occurs. Among people receiving a course of treatment involving manipulation of the neck,

By comparison, serious medical complications involving common drugs in the ibuprofen family (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs) are far more common. Among people using them for arthritis, NSAIDs result in hospitalizations at a rate of about 5 in 1200 people, and death at a rate of 5 in 12,000. The rate of complications with these common over-the-counter drugs is perhaps 100-500 times greater than with chiropractic.

Is It Cost Effective? 

There is a lot of evidence that chiropractic may be less expensive than other forms of care.

If You Decide To Visit A Chiropractor 

If you’re suffering from headaches, migraine, TMJ ( jaw) pain, back pain or neck pain,shoulders, hip, pregnancy-related pelvic pain, joint pain, knee and ankle injuries and conditions  including soft tissue injuries seeking chiropractic care is worth a try, since it appears to be at least as helpful as other commonly used therapies. Chiropractic treatment is now available within United States of America’s  Military,and Medisure with the help and insistence from President Barack Obama.

Look for a chiropractor who:

• Does not require long-term or preventive care
• Does not routinely take x-rays, However, X-rays may be necessary, so always look for a chiropractor within house x-ray facilities, for this can be very important in diagnosing certain conditions.
• Does not object to you seeing a specialist for a second opinion
• Limits his practice to the treatment of musculoskeletal problems (pain/discomfort associated with muscles and joints)

Chiropractors Are fully Registered

Chiropractors are fully registered in the UK with The General Chiropractic Council (BCA) and the British Chiropractic Association (BCA). Chiropractors usually get awarded either Bachelor of Science degree or Master of Science degree upon graduation. You should always check there credentials, this is important in the respect of their professional liability insurance.  Chiropractors aim to diagnose and treat problems associated with the joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves, especially of those relating to the spine restoring normal function of the body. They rely on using a hands-on approach by the process of manipulation of the spine without the use of drugs surgery. Occasionally the manipulation of the extremities is required to alleviate symptoms.

Founded in 1895, chiropractic treatment was once thought of as a purely complementary and alternative therapy, their importance is now widely recognised by medical and healthcare professionals as a beneficial and legitimate branch of therapy in the treatment of spinal and musculo-skeletal conditions. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommends chiropractic treatment within NHS.

Chiropractic in Sport

In modern sport, increasing levels of intensity have brought extra physical demands from athletes. This has also unfortunately led to an increase in injuries. Fast moving, high contact and tactical positioning based competition has led to an increased pressure on backs and musculo-skeletal systems. Injuries can come in a variety of types. Some can be played through, others lead to time on the sidelines and even worse still, there are occasions when injuries fail to respond to traditional treatment. However, in recent years we have seen the emergence of chiropractic treatment geared towards the needs of an athlete. The treatment has always stressed the importance of maintaining proper function in all areas of body which in turn promotes fast and natural healing from injuries, thus making the treatment nearly ideal for athletic training. Based on the founding principal of human body as a fully integrated being, chiropractic treatment places its focus on spinal, muscular, tendon, ligament, nerve and joint related care. Professionals from a variety of sports both international and domestic now deploy chiropractic therapy and a primary source of treatment with some of the attending specialists at the Olympic Games falling into the category of trained chiropractors.

Chiropractic addresses the function of central nervous system which is the “master system” of the body controlling ad regulating function of all other subsystems including musculoskeletal system. Properly aligned skeletal system would improve performance, reduce the risk of injury and improve healing of existing injuries.

Chiropractors specialize in the non-drug treatment of musculoskeletal problems, including joint sprains and disc injuries. To some extent, the chiropractic approach to sports injuries is similar to that of traditional medical care.

Usually chiropractor’s initial examination would include standard orthopaedic and neurological tests to diagnose whether a particular pain is due to a strain, sprain, or disc problem. X-ray examination is also performed to screen for fractures and other bone disorders, such as osteoporosis.  

Chiropractic management of sports injuries often includes widely used physical therapies such as ice, Cold laser therapy to reduce swelling and inflammation, or electronic muscle stimulation for muscle strains and spasms. 

The Importance of Restoring the Structural Body Balance.

Chiropractic management of sport injuries has an emphasis on adjustment and improving function of spinal and other joints through manipulation as well as restoring overall structural balance of the body. Chiropractor assess the effect of the muscle injury on the rest of the body as it would cause tightening of other muscle and joints in order to maintain general balance. Chiropractic adjustments help to restore the natural balance that was present before the injury.

Achilles Tendonitis

Achilles tendonitis accounts for around 13% of running injuries. The Achilles tendon is the large tendon at the back of the ankle. This Tendon connects the calf muscles (Gastrocnemius and Soleus) to the heal bone (calcaneus) and provides the power and drive in the push off phase of the gait cycle. The Achilles tendon can become inflamed through overuse as well as a number of other factors. Achilles tendonitis may be acute or chronic. Acute Achilles tendonitis is a result of overuse.

Achilles tendonitis symptoms include:

• Acute inflammation
• Achilles Tendonitis pain may increase gradually during exercise. Swelling may appear over the Achilles tendon.
• Redness may appear over the skin in the area of the tendonitis.
• You may feel a cracking or creaking sensation when you press your fingers into the tendon while moving the foot.
• Chronic Achilles tendonitis will often follow on from acute Achilles tendonitis if the acute tendon injury is not treated properly and given time to heal. Chronic Achilles tendonitis is a difficult condition to treat. The pain experienced during the acute phase of the injury may well disappear after a warm session, and may return when training has stopped.

Symptoms for chronic Achilles Tendonitis are similar to those of acute tendonitis as well as:

• Stiffness and pain in the Achilles tendon are especially noticeable in the morning. This pain may be described has none specific or generalized pain of the area.
• Nodules or lumps may appear in the Achilles tendon, 2cm above the heel.
• Tendon pain may appear when walking up a hill or incline.
• Chronic tendinitis differs from acute tendinitis in that it is a much more of a long term problem.

Causes of Achilles Tendonitis

An Overuse are the main factor and the basic cause of this injury, however other factors can make an overuse injury more likely.

Running up inclines and hills will mean the Achilles tendon has to stretch more than normal. This exasperates and worsens this condition.

Overpronation, meaning feet which roll in, will place an increased strain on the Achilles tendon. As the foot rolls in and (flattens) the lower leg rotates inwards which then twists the Achilles tendon placing torsion stress along the length of the Achilles tendon.

Treatment of Achilles Tendonitis

Rest and apply cold therapy or ice (not directly onto the skin). Wearing a heel pad, as a temporary measure, to raise the heel and take the strain off the Achilles tendon. Rest while the Achilles tendon is healing.

Physiotherapy management of sports injuries often includes widely used physical therapies such as ice, Cold laser therapy to reduce swelling and inflammation, or electronic muscle stimulation for muscle strains and spasms. Cold Laser Therapy is used by nearly all sports professionals such as Chelsea Football Club and Manchester United, track and field athletes.

Cold laser Therapy/Treatment

The lasers used at Central Chiropractic Physiotherapy Clinic are certified as Cold Laser.  For the past 30 years the technology of Cold Laser Therapy (also known as Low Level Laser Therapy) has been formally accepted in North America and in many other parts of the world such as Europe, Russia and Japan.  In all this time there have been no recorded long-term adverse effects from low level laser therapy.  It is considered to be non-invasive, painless and safe.

Cold Laser Therapy uses laser light energy to stimulate cells to function optimally.  In the body, light sensitive chromophores and other elements within the cell absorb energy, initiating a series of important photochemical changes such as increased production of ATP. The mitochondria and Kreb’s Cycle stimulation initiates the production of ATP, providing the cell with the extra energy needed to accelerate the healing process and positively influence pain.  These activities can occur in all types of cells and includes ligament, nerves, cartilage and muscle.

Low Level Cold Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a Handheld, non-invasive, light-emitting medical device which is used over different areas of the body. It provides an unmatched advantage in the treatment of conditions such as;

Athletic and sports injuries. Cold laser therapy, accelerating the healing process.

Neck Shoulder and Upper Back Pain.

People do not realize how much they move their neck, until they are unable to do so. The neck has the least amount of muscular stabilization to support and move your head, which makes it very susceptible to injury. It doesn’t take much force to disrupt that fine balance.

The spinal cord passes through a space in the vertebrae sending nerve impulses to every part of the body. Between each pair of cervical vertebrae, the spinal cord sends bundles of nerves that pass down the arms and to the upper back, and if your arm is hurting, it may be a problem in the neck! Symptoms in the arms can include numbness, tingling, cold, aching, and “pins and needles”.

The neck can also contribute to headaches, muscle spasms in the shoulders and upper back, ringing ears, otitis media (inflammation in the middle ear, temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ or jaw joint). Dysfunction of the neck also causes restricted range of motion and chronic tightness in the upper back.

Causes of Neck and Upper Back Pain. 

Neck and upper back pain is caused by a combination of factors, including injury, poor posture, stress, and disc problems.

Injuries

The most common injury to the neck is a “whiplash”(WAD) injury. “Whiplash”(WAD) is caused by a sudden movement of the head.

(Listed in our “Whiplash” (WAD) neck pain section top left corner under “Pain” or “Conditions”) 

Much more common causes of neck pain and headaches are poor posture. It’s easy to get into bad posture habits, can eventually lead to pain and headaches. The rule is simple: keep your neck in a “neutral” position whenever possible. Don’t bend or hunch your neck forward for extended periods. Also, do not to sit in one position for extended period of time. If you must sit for an extended period, make sure your posture is good: Keep your head in a neutral position, make sure your back is always supported, and keep your knees slightly lower than your hips.

Stress

When people become stressed, they unconsciously contract their muscles, Particular the muscles in their back. This ‘Muscle guarding’ or Defence posture is a response designed to guard against injury. Muscle guarding occurs whenever we become emotionally stressed. The area’s most affected are the muscles of the neck, upper back and low back.

Disc Herniations 

Discs in your neck may herniated or bulge and put pressure on the nerves that lead from the spine into your shoulders, arms and hands. Although cervical discs do not bulge nearly as often as lumbar discs do, they occasionally can still get damaged especially when damage sustained from a “whiplash” (WAD) injury

(Listed in our Cold Laser Therapy Section under Inflammatory conditions.) 

Lower Back Pain. Including Cold Laser Therapy for Pain Relief and Recovery.

Sprained ligaments, strained muscles, ruptured discs, trigger points and inflamed joints are the many of different conditions that can result in low back pain. While sports injuries or accidents can lead to an injury and pain, sometimes even the simplest movements, like picking up a pencil from the floor, can have painful results. In addition, conditions such as poor posture, stress, arthritis, kidney stones and kidney infections, can be the cause of low back pain.

There may be many other things that can cause low back pain, and some of those things can be serious if left untreated. Physiotherapists are able in diagnosing the cause and determining a proper course of treatment for low back pain. Following are some of the most common causes.

Subluxations

When a disruption in the normal movement or position of the vertebrae occurs it results in pain and inflammation. In the lumbar spine these occur at the transition between the lower spine and the sacrum. Subluxations can lead to debilitating low back pain, however, subluxations are easily treatable and there is often a significant reduction in pain experienced almost immediately after treatment.

Disc Herniations

A herniated disc does not automatically mean that you may suffer from low back pain. In one study almost 60% of all adults had at least one bulging or herniated disc, even though they did not experienced any back pain. However, herniated discs can be a source of severe and debilitating pain, which may radiate to other areas of the body. Unfortunately, when a disc herniates, they rarely, completely heal. Further deterioration can be avoided through Physiotherapy, but a complete recovery is less common.

Sprains, Strains and Spasms

Sprains strains and spasms, are the most common source of low back pain. Overworking the muscles or ligaments of the low back may lead to tears in the tissues, which become painful, swollen and may even ache, with a tightening to the area affected.

Stress

When you become stressed your body responds by increasing the levels of stress hormones leading to the rise of blood pressure and heart rate and tightening up of your muscles. By becoming stressed all the time your muscles will become weak and painful loaded with trigger points.

In addition, conditions such as poor posture, stress, arthritis, kidney stones and kidney infections, can be the cause of low back pain.

There may be many other things that can cause low back pain, and some of those things can be serious if left untreated. Physiotherapists are able in diagnosing the cause and determining a proper course of treatment for low back pain. Following are some of the most common causes.

Subluxations

When a disruption in the normal movement or position of the vertebrae occurs it results in pain and inflammation. In the lumbar spine these occur at the transition between the lower spine and the sacrum. Subluxations can lead to debilitating low back pain, however, subluxations are easily treatable and there is often a significant reduction in pain experienced almost immediately after treatment.

Disc Herniations

A herniated disc does not automatically mean that you may suffer from low back pain. In one study almost 60% of all adults had at least one bulging or herniated disc, even though they did not experienced any back pain. However, herniated discs can be a source of severe and debilitating pain, which may radiate to other areas of the body. Unfortunately, when a disc herniates, they rarely, completely heal. Further deterioration can be avoided through Physiotherapy, but a complete recovery is less common.

Sprains, Strains and Spasms

Sprains strains and spasms, are the most common source of low back pain. Overworking the muscles or ligaments of the low back may lead to tears in the tissues, which become painful, swollen and may even ache, with a tightening to the area affected.

Stress

When you become stressed your body responds by increasing the levels of stress hormones leading to the rise of blood pressure and heart rate and tightening up of your muscles. By becoming stressed all the time your muscles will become weak and painful loaded with trigger points.

The Cold Lasers (LLLT) used at Central Chiropractic Clinic are certified as Cold Laser.  For the past 30 years the technology of Cold Laser Therapy (also known as Low Level Laser Therapy) has been formally accepted in North America and in many other parts of the world such as Europe, including Russia and Japan.  In all this time there have been no recorded long-term adverse effects from its use.  It is considered to be non-invasive, painless and safe.

Cold Laser Therapy uses laser light energy to stimulate cells to function optimally.  Cold Laser Therapy is similar to photosynthesis in plants; sunlight is absorbed by the plant and converted into energy the plant can utilize for growth.  In the body light sensitive chromophores and other elements within the cell absorb energy, initiating a series of important photochemical changes such as increased production of nitric oxide, singlet oxygen and ATP, as well as, an increase in the cell membrane’s permeability.  The mitochondria and Kreb’s Cycle stimulation initiates the production of ATP, providing the cell with the extra energy needed to accelerate the healing process and positively influence pain.  The additional energy and effects result in normalization of the cell function when cell function is impaired.  These activities can occur in all types of cells and includes ligament, nerves, cartilage, and muscle.
