Osteoporosis
Headaches
Arthritis
Fibromyalgia
Our chiropractors in Camanche have been taking a special interest in fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients since the 1980s. Weâ€™ve recognized the symptoms and began developing a basic protocol to address the main problem areas of fibromyalgia (and chronic fatigue which is similar and related) before the disease was recognized. The protocol must be individualized to each patient, to achieve positive results with fibromyalgia. A generalized cookie-cutter approach just doesnâ€™t work well with each unique, yet similar, fibromyalgia patient. While fibromyalgia does not have a magic bullet cure, there are definitely approaches which can often reduce the pain and problems of fibromyalgia.
Plantar Fasciitis
Constipation
Diarrhea
Immunizations
Proof of Immunization. We will disclose proof of immunization to a school that is required to have it before admitting a student where you have agreed to the disclosure on behalf of yourself or your dependent.

Pregnancy
Chiropractic practitioners can provide safe and effective personalized care throughout your pregnancy and in the postpartum period. A thorough examination will determine the best treatment to address your discomfort and prepare the body for the height of pregnancy and childbirth. There are specialized adjustment methods to accommodate pregnancy. These treatments may reduce the need for pain medications throughout the delivery as well as help to reduce labor time. Follow up treatments can assist in realigning the body after the pregnancyÂ andÂ speed up the transition to a healthy post-pregnancy body.
Labor and Delivery

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
The carpal tunnel is the bridge of bones in your wrist through which the nerves and blood vessels to the hand pass through. The symptoms of carpal tunnel are typically tingling or â€˜falling asleepâ€™ of the fingers, typically the thumb and first two fingers. Wrist and hand pain may accompany carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). When people have these symptoms they often jump to the carpal tunnel diagnosis, as do many doctors. There are, however, several other causes of pain and tingling/numbness in the hand. Chiropractors are trained to test orthopedically to determine whether the cause is in the wrist (carpal tunnel), elbow, shoulder girdle (thoracic outlet), or neck. It is very common to have a combination of two of these problems develop before the patient feels itâ€™s time to go see whatâ€™s wrong. Fortunately, chiropractic and physiotherapy techniques that chiropractors use are usually adequate to treat hand pain including carpal tunnel without surgery. Fortunately, chiropractors in Camanche have success treating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with a more conservative and gentle approach.

Mental Health
Right to Inspect and Copy. You have the right to inspect and copy your health information, with limited exceptions. To access your medical information, you must submit a written request detailing what information you want access to, whether you want to inspect it or get a copy of it, and if you want a copy, your preferred form and format. We will provide copies in your requested form and format if it is readily producible, or we will provide you with an alternative format you find acceptable, or if we canâ€™t agree and we maintain the record in an electronic format, your choice of a readable electronic or hardcopy format. We will also send a copy to any other person you designate in writing. We will charge a reasonable fee which covers our costs for labor, supplies, postage, and if requested and agreed to in advance, the cost of preparing an explanation or summary. We may deny your request under limited circumstances. If we deny your request to access your child's records or the records of an incapacitated adult you are representing because we believe allowing access would be reasonably likely to cause substantial harm to the patient, you will have a right to appeal our decision. If we deny your request to access your psychotherapy notes, you will have the right to have them transferred to another mental health professional.

Ultrasound
Laser therapy can greatly benefit the patient with knee joint problems. It helps decrease inflammation by stimulating the healing of the tissue. It also increases circulation which is helpful for tissues in the knee joint like the meniscus, which have little or no direct blood supply to deliver nutrients for healing. Weâ€™ve had patientsâ€™ knee pain resolve using laser therapy alone and weâ€™ve also used it with adjustments and other techniques. The laser can be used in combination with ultrasound or electrotherapy also. The bottom line is that laser definitely speeds up the healing process. Taping and bracing are other beneficial therapies in some cases. If ligaments have been stretched too much, a brace may help bring stability.
MRI
While there are many treatments available, starting with the least invasive and most conservative approach is always the best idea. Thankfully, when treating herniated or bulged discs, the most conservative approach has been found to be the most effective. After determining the diagnosis of a disc problem, your doctor will confirm their suspicions through the use of MRI or X-ray imaging. Once a disc pathology has been confirmed, your doctors will determine the most appropriate treatment avenue.
X-Rays

Sciatica
If you are experiencing pain that radiates from the back or buttocks all the way down the legs, you may have a common condition called sciatica. Many people look for a Camanche chiropractor so they don't have to suffer with the pain of sciatica, and many never achieve a long term solution. An untreated sciatic condition can continue to worsen and make the daily tasks of living go from difficult to impossible. This article is aimed at helping you to understand sciatica and explains how chiropractic treatment can help you to overcome it.
Whiplash
Many people will seek out chiropractic care in Camanche after having an auto injury.Â A common auto injury, whiplash, occurs when the head and neck are whipped from back to front, similar to how a whip is cracked. The majority of car accidents are rear-end collisions with whiplash being a common result. Whiplash can also occur from other kinds of trauma, accidents, abuse, and falls.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
The shoulder and hip joints are two of the most mobile and frequently used joints in the body. They are also a frequent site of injury and pain for many people we see in our Camanche chiropractic clinic.Â From overuse to sports injuries, the causes are many, and the results range from slight discomfort to complete immobilization. The following article from Camanche Chiropractic Center gives information on some of the most common issues that lead to shoulder and leg pain, as well as a description of how chiropractic adjustments can help to reverse it.
Physical Therapy
Kinesio taping in Camanche is becoming very popular. Kinesio taping is a specialized form of taping that has been used in various chiropractic, physical therapy, medical, and orthopedic clinics for many years. Not only has kinesio taping been utilized in a variety of health care facilities, world class athletes including Lance Armstrong, David Beckham, Kerri Walsh, and Serena Williams have also recognized its benefits.
Frozen Shoulder
Tennis Elbow
Slipped Disc
Are you living with a slipped disc or other disc injuries in Camanche? If you have a suspicion that your chronic back pain is being caused by a disc injury, or you have received a diagnosis that confirms you are dealing with this kind of issue, you will probably benefit from the best chiropractic care in Camanche you can find.
Shoulder Pain
Neck Pain
Back Pain
Manual Therapy
A chiropractor is a joint professional that can give you the best assessment of your jaw joint. We offer treatment for TMJ dysfunction which does not involve thrusting into the joint. The TM joint is delicate and very sensitive. Our techniques involve soft tissue manual therapy (you can think of it as â€œmassageâ€ ), manual traction, and tracking/alignment adjustments. Laser light therapy may be used to help the joint heal or help with inflammation or muscle spasms.
TMJ Dysfunction
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

Foot Pain
Plantar Fasciitis
Another cause of foot pain is plantar fasciitis and another myositis.Â Inflammation of the muscles or tendons of the foot is what these fancy names basically mean. We use several different soft tissue techniques to reduce the inflammation and stimulate healing of the muscles of the foot.Â We also fit patients for custom orthotics which insert into the shoes to stabilize the feet and provide proper biomechanical motion.
