If your lower back has bothered you, you are not alone. Eight out of ten adults will experience low back problems at some time in their lives. Most symptoms of low back pain are blamed on poor muscle tone in the back, muscle tension, spasms, ligament or muscle tears, and joint problems.
In the past individuals have subjected themselves to prolonged bed rest, uncomfortable traction, heavy sedation, injections, and surgery. But there is a safer, more natural approach to healing the body, Chiropractic care.
As a professional chiropractor, Huntersville NC practitioner, Dr. Laura Fellows, provides natural, pain-free chiropractic care services geared to alleviate a number of harmful symptoms, back conditions and related ailments before they can become a serious threat to your health.
About Chiropractic Care
For people suffering from chronic neck pain, various spinal ailments or lower back pain caused by muscle tension or muscle tears, chiropractic care has been an extremely practical and “clean” method of achieving relief for quite some time.
This form of therapy is a set of alternative and complementary practices used for targeting the causes and symptoms of conditions that affect the spine and nervous system, attempting to prevent, correct or alleviated them, depending on the case at hand. Among others, these can include practices such as various forms of spinal adjustment, inter-segmental traction, Cox Flexion-distraction and spinal decompression.
How Can Chiropractic Care Help You?

• The alleviation of subluxations, sciatica and other conditions that affect the spinal nerves with the help of spinal adjustment and other chiropractic methods;
• Headaches, ADHD or the treatment of various allergies;
• The remedy of related problems varying from carpal tunnel to asthma, ear infections or even PMS and issues related to pregnancy.

Chiropractors, like any doctor can treat a broad range of issues in the body
What separates Chiropractors like Dr. Laura from general practitioners is the believe that while health problems may show up symptomatically in specific areas of the body, they are in fact indicators of your bodies health as a whole. A good example of this is Carpel tunnel. A symptom may appear as numbness of tingling in the finger tips yet the true cause of the symptom needing treatment maybe located elsewhere.
Health Issues that respond well to Chiropractic Treatments.
Admittedly there is a bit of skepticism when it comes to Chiropractic care. For many patients, they are so conditioned to relying on pills from their primary care doctor. There is much misinformation and many Chiropractic Myths being put out by doctors who are little more that pharmaceutical sales reps. The issue stems from a difference in wellness philosophies. However, just because they can prescribe medication that treat symptoms, there is a false superiority. The truth is, in an effort to discredit chiropractic care, more credible double blind studies have been done. The studies show that chiropractic adjustments from a trained chiropractic doctor is highly effective at treating a broad range of symptoms that respond well to this type of health care.
