CONDITIONS TREATED
Back Pain
Since back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, it is vital to know how to prevent cause of back pain. By maintaining a healthy diet and weight, remaining active, and avoiding prolonged inactivity or bed rest are all important ways to avoid back pain. Before doing exercises or any physical activity, it is recommended to warm up and/or stretch.
Auto Injury
Even a “minor” crash can result in serious injuries like ligament sprains. This can lead to chronic pain and disability if not treated properly. Research shows that early treatment is the best way to prevent long-term symptoms. Chiropractic adjustments are effective because they help restore the healthy, normal function of your nervous system without the use of drugs or surgery.
Headache & Migraine
Headaches are not fun, and migraines are another level of awful. Living with either of these issues can make you feel grumpy, and in the worst-case scenario, leave you unable to function. Medication may help in the short term, but when the problem is ongoing or re-occurring, pills are generally not enough. The source of your headaches and migraines is usually structural, and therefore proper treatment can help you overcome this debilitating issue.
Chiropractic Care for Kids
A child’s nervous system is the controller and regulator of all the other systems in their growing body. From blood flow to brain function and bone growth, the nervous system plays a central role in keeping things working and healthy. Stress and misalignment of the spine can have serious impacts on your child’s overall health, behavior, and development. IFIXBAX Chiropractic is a chiropractic clinic that offers gentle and non-invasive therapy that works to correct underlying issues before they become hard-wired in during development, providing support for a pain-free and successful childhood.
Chiropractic during Pregnancy
Chiropractic care during pregnancy can help relieve common discomforts such as back pain and improve overall spinal function. Chiropractors use adjustments to realign the spine and improve the function of the nervous system, which can also benefit the developing fetus. Additionally, chiropractic care can help prepare the body for a smoother delivery. However, it is important to consult with a chiropractor who is experienced in working with pregnant women.
Work Injury
Work injuries are not from serious accidents but from overuse and repetitive stress injuries. However, there are as many ways to injure yourself at work as there are different occupations, and none of them are very fun. The most important thing when dealing with a work-related injury is that you don’t leave it until it requires more serious intervention or leads to an untreatable problem. Chiropractic care can be an effective treatment for injuries sustained at work. Chiropractors use adjustments to realign the spine and improve the function of the nervous system, which can help alleviate pain and improve the body’s ability to heal. Common work-related injuries that can be treated by a chiropractor include back pain, neck pain, headaches, and repetitive strain injuries.
Whiplash
Chiropractic care is a common treatment for whiplash, a neck injury that occurs as a result of a sudden jerking motion of the head, such as in a car accident. Chiropractors use manual adjustments to realign the spine and alleviate pain and discomfort associated with whiplash. They may also use techniques such as massage and physical therapy to help speed up the healing process.

Sciatica
Sciatica is characterized by pain in the lower back that radiates down one or both legs. The pain is described as dull, achy, and sharp, like “pins and needles” or similar to electric shocks. Other symptoms associated with sciatica include burning, numbness, and tingling sensations. Sciatic nerve pain varies in intensity from mild to severe, and frequency may range from occasional to constant. The onset is generally gradual and not necessarily associated with a previous event. Sciatica is also known as radiating or referred pain, neuropathy, or neuralgia.
