To help all of our patients, we offer the following services:
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is a natural form of health care that assists with disorders of musculoskeletal system, the nervous system, and the effects of such disorders on general health. Most chiropractic services are used to heal back pain, neck pain, pain in the joints of the arms or legs, and headaches. There are also many other benefits of chiropractic care.
One of the most common practices that chiropractors are known for is adjusting patients. This rarely causes discomfort but rather causes relief. When most people are in pain, they grab medication; yet, chiropractic care is a much safer and more effective option.
Corrective Exercises
Corrective exercises can help make any pain that you are experiencing go away and stay away. These exercises will strengthen and correct the irregularities of your body which may be causing your pain. Most of these exercises are able to be performed in the comfort of your own home. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles or connective tissues that are out of place can also cause pain.
Wellness Care
There are so many things you can do to become healthier. Many people think that becoming healthier means salads for every meal and exercising daily. We recommend that you start slow. What is one thing that you are doing every day that you could switch out for something healthier? Could you stop drinking that can of soda for dinner and instead grab a water bottle? Becoming healthier is all about making small changes.
Chiropractic Adjustments
A chiropractic adjustment can make you feel so much better. Your body does not want to be out of alignment, and that’s exactly what an adjustment can help address. It is also known as chiropractic manipulation, manual manipulation, or spinal manipulation. The adjustment refers to the manipulation of the vertebrae that have abnormal movements and are not functioning properly. A chiropractic adjustment will assist in fixing these issues.
Hydromassage
Hydromassage in a chiropractic setting is a therapeutic technique that combines the benefits of warm water massage with chiropractic principles. Using jets of heated water directed at specific areas of the body, it helps in relaxing muscles, improving circulation, and reducing stress. This non-invasive treatment is ideal for patients seeking relief from muscle tension, joint stiffness, and certain types of chronic pain. Hydromassage can be an excellent complement to traditional chiropractic adjustments, aiding in overall wellness and recovery.

Back Pain
Chronic back pain is one of the biggest problems Americans face today. Back pain actually affects eight out of ten people at some point in their lives. Even though back pain is common, it is not all the same. Many different conditions can cause back pain and cause different areas of the back to hurt. These include sprained ligaments, strained muscles, trigger points, arthritis, ruptured disks, inflamed joins, sport injuries, and many more.
Auto Accidents
An auto accident can cause many different issues. Often an accident can throw your neck, your spine, or even your entire body out of alignment. Our trained professionals are able to work with you to find the exact cause of each of your issues and help you through exercises as well as regular chiropractic care so that you begin to feel like yourself again.
These are just some of the services that we provide here at Birdsell Chiropractic & Acupuncture Clinic. We love assisting others and helping them feel better again. No matter what your pain or injury is, we will work with you to ensure that you are pain free and feeling great.
