How Can Chiropractic Care Help You?

Many people dismiss chiropractic as being something only for back pain, but chiropractic treatment can be used to treat a wide variety of physical issues, such as migraines and headaches, chronic pain, carpal tunnel, pain due to injury or muscle strain, and much more.

ACTIVE RELEASE TECHNIQUEs (ART)

Active Release Techniques (ART) is the gold standard in soft tissue treatment. With acute and chronic conditions, muscles accumulate scar tissue which painfully restricts normal ranges of motion. Many problems can result, including: plantar fasciitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, knee pain, tennis elbow, shoulder pain, back pain, neck pain, and headaches. The nerves can become stuck, creating numbness, tingling, and/or a sharp, shooting pain in the arms or legs.

Athletes often use ART. Professional athletic teams, including the New Orleans Saints, have ART practitioners on staff who help their players get the most out of their games.

Our ART providers use their extensive studies of the human anatomy and biomechanics to assess and address these painful syndromes. With over 500 specific protocols, the doctors at Mandeville Chiropractic use ART to correct the soft tissue problems in our patients.

What Kind of Training Does a Chiropractor Have?

Chiropractic doctors go through a minimum of four years of schooling at a chiropractic college, generally preceded by an undergraduate degree in the basic sciences or several years of experience in a prior relevant health care field.

Students of chiropractic care must spend a minimum of at least 4,200 hours with their teacher, and a minimum of 1,000 hours of fully supervised clinical training with an instructor as they learn the appropriate diagnosis and treatment techniques to help heal your body and restore it to its natural, fully functioning state.
