The first time you saw a chiropractor was most likely because of neck or back pain, but those aren’t the only signals your body can give you to indicate that you need chiropractic care. There are many other ways your body can let you know. Below are a few of the most common signals.
- Headaches
If you are suffering from regular headaches, then you might want to see a chiropractor. Often, your headaches don’t originate from your head, but from another problem in your spine, specifically your neck. If your headaches are bad enough that you’re purchasing over the counter medication on a daily or nearly daily basis, then you are most likely just masking the symptoms and not addressing the root cause of your problem. Chiropractors absolutely love to dig down and try to find the root cause of your health issues so that they can be fixed at the source. Contact the Fourways Health Centre on 011465 8846 for an appointment.
- Pain Medication
When it comes to chiropractic care, one of the benefits is that it is completely natural. They do not rely on any drugs to get you healthy and feeling better, they only rely on results from treating the source of what is bothering you. Pain medication should not be your way out each day.
- Car Accidents
If you have recently been in a car accident, even if it was minor, you should definitely see a chiropractor as soon as you can. Injuries that you might have sustained during a car accident may not show up for a while afterward, and they will only get worse the longer you leave them.
- Wear on the Sole of Your Shoes
Take a few seconds and check out the bottom of your favourite pair of shoes. Do the wear patterns match each other or are the different? If your shoes are wearing in different places, then this may mean that you’re out of alignment somewhere in your body and you’re compensating for it. A chiropractor could find the source of this misalignment and they can gently coax it back to where it should be.
