What Is A Subluxation?

A subluxation occurs when the spinal vertebrae becomes misaligned. It can happen for a variety of reasons, including daily use of the spine to perform basic life tasks. It may also be the result of an accident or injury to the area. The severity of subluxation determines how much pain you are going to feel.

What Symptoms Can A Subluxation Cause?

The primary symptom of a subluxation is neck or back pain, depending on the location of the problem. Higher subluxations will produce symptoms closer to the neck. As the pain progresses, it might become difficult to move. For some individuals with a subluxation, immobility is possible. Your back may feel like it is going to give out or that it feels unstable. Some individuals note that they have a headache because of the subluxation. When it first begins, there might not be any symptoms at all.

How Are Subluxations Treated?

Our chiropractor in Kitchener will discuss your symptoms with you to determine the location of the subluxation. From there, adjustments to the spine are made to help correct the misalignment. Oftentimes, more than one motion is used. Thrusts are used to attempt to move the spine into alignment and gentle manipulation is used to help correct muscle and ligament problems that stem from the subluxation. Our chiropractor might use multiple chiropractic techniques in one session to help relief your back pain.

How Soon Can You Expect Results?

Chiropractic care are cumulative, so you should feel some relief after each session. You shouldn’t expect complete relief after the first visit to the chiropractor. As you move forward with the treatment plan, you will begin to feel better and better. Sometimes, people will need to also use self-care options at home, such as implementing a stretching program into their daily life.
