When most people think of chiropractic care, they think of only lower back pain or neck pain. However, that is not the case. It all starts with the spine. When you take care of your spine, you take care of your nervous system, which controls every aspect of your health throughout your body. At our Powell chiropractic office, we offer a variety of services to treat your underlying and chronic issues. Relief and a life with much more ease is possible! We can’t wait to show you!

When your nervous system is bombarded with stress, it goes into overdrive trying to manage it all and nerve signals can't be sent or received appropriately. This can cause your body to overreact to harmless invaders like pollen and dust and react insufficiently to viruses and invaders.

Adjustments introduce movement in your spine and correct misalignments, relieving stress on your nerves, and eliminating interferences that were starving your brain of information. Once the connection between your brain and body is restored, your immune system's function is restored, too!

Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to aid in managing anxiety. The spine and nervous system are intricately connected, and anxiety is born out of nervous system dysregulation. Chiropractors keep that line of communication open by performing gentle adjustments. Adjustments relieve stress on your nerves by correcting misalignments and reestablishing proper movement of your spine. Once your nervous system is able to communicate, and your sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems balance out, your body is able to return to and maintain a state of rest.

Chiropractic care stands out as a clinically proven and patient-focused method for addressing low back pain and sciatica. Sciatic pain, often rooted in issues related to spinal function, finds relief through chiropractic adjustments. These adjustments are designed to optimize spinal health and alleviate pressure on the sciatic nerve. Our chiropractors take a comprehensive approach that goes beyond symptom management, tackling the underlying factors contributing to sciatica. No more band-aid solutions that lead to the issue returning! Through targeted adjustments, chiropractic care aims to improve overall spinal health. Its non-invasive and patient-centered approach makes chiropractic care an appealing option for individuals seeking a tailored and effective solution to manage and prevent sciatic and low back discomfort.

Chiropractic care for headaches and migraines can lessen frequency and intensity or even completely resolve them! By locating the areas of your spine that aren't moving properly and gently correcting them your body functions better and in turn your headaches disappear. Our team of doctors will investigate your spinal health using x-rays and thorough examinations to discover the underlying cause of your pain. Once the structure of your spine is restored, the and pressure is taken off the nerves it protects, they can send appropriate messages and healing can begin throughout your entire body.

Chiropractic care can be a game-changer when it comes to tackling neck pain. Imagine a hands-on approach that focuses on your spine and nervous system, aiming to get everything back in working order. Those gentle adjustments not only help reduce muscle tension but also promote better joint function. The best part is, it's all about addressing the root cause instead of masking the pain until it returns again. Life is too short to spend it in pain and we have all the tools to make sure you find relief.

Your body redirects energy to help you heal, regenerate, and recover while you sleep. A common cause of sleepless nights is an overactive fight or flight response. Fight or flight is activated when stress (thoughts/traumas/toxins) builds up and your body perceives danger. Adjustments regulate cortisol production (your body's stress hormone), activate the rest & digest portion of your nervous system, and unlock specific sleep hormones required for a good night's sleep!
