Chiropractic Care in Dunwoody GA
What is Corrective Chiropractic Care and it's Purpose
Chiropractors understand that one of the main causes of pain and disease is the misalignment and abnormal motion of the vertebrae in the spine. This is called a subluxation. Corrective Chiropractic works by removing the root cause of your pain, the subluxations in the spine, thereby relieving pressure and irritation on the nerves. This restores joint mobility, and returns the body to a state of normal function. Numerous studies have demonstrated that chiropractic care is one of the most effective treatments for back pain, neck pain, headaches, whiplash, sports injuries, and many other types of musculoskeletal problems. It has even been shown to be effective in reducing high blood pressure, decreasing the frequency of childhood ear infections, and improving the symptoms of asthma. Scientific research continually demonstrates the tremendously detrimental impact that subluxation has on the tissues of the body. In order to be truly healthy, it is vital that your nervous system be free of interference from subluxations. Chiropractors are the only health professionals trained in the detection, location, and correction of the vertebral subluxation complex through chiropractic care.
The Chiropractic Adjustment
The chiropractic adjustment is a specific force applied to a vertebra for the purpose of correcting its position, movement, or both. Adjustments are often accompanied by an audible release of gas that sounds like a “crack.” The sound sometimes shocks people a little bit the first couple times they get adjusted, but the sensation is usually relieving. Occasionally, minor discomfort is experienced, especially if the surrounding muscles are in spasm or the patient tenses up during the chiropractic procedure. There are times when the audible ‘cracking’ does not occur. This is often due to either significant muscle tightness or the fact that the patient may be having a hard time relaxing during their adjustments.

Chiropractic Care for Expecting Mothers
Pregnant women seek chiropractic care to help with common discomfort, as their body adjusts to a growing baby. As the baby grows in size and weight increases over time, it creates additional stress on your lower back due to the curvature of your lower spine increasing.
Our team at Wilson Family Chiropractic can utilise chiropractic care to treat discomfort in the low back, neck, and shoulders of expecting mothers.
Our team also specialises in the Webster Technique. The aim of this technique is to restore normal biomechanics by correcting misalignments and joint dysfunction to the pubic bone, sacrum, and other structures associated with pregnancy.
Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Pediatric chiropractic care extends from newborns to young athletes. The delivery process is a unique physical experience for both the mother and her child. Each delivery process can be different and has the potential to create structural interferences in your child’s spine.
These misalignments or interferences can contribute to delays of their milestones, conditions such as colic, or even discomfort that they aren’t able to communicate to their parents. Chiropractic care for a child looks drastically different from what it does for an adult. Our chiropractic team uses age-appropriate, gentle chiropractic adjustments to correct these interferences in their spine.
Our team also specializes in offering chiropractic care for youth who are active in sports, to keep them operating at their fullest potential!
