Our chiropractors in San Antonio at the RIM can assist in managing your musculoskeletal pain and discomfort. Our chiropractic care services are done with one or a combination of the following conditions:
Hip Alignment
The pressure and repetitive motion our hips handle daily can make them weak or become uneven. Unaligned hips can cause pain to various parts of your body such as your knees, shoulders, ankles, and lower back. Undergoing a hip alignment procedure addresses these issues by strengthening your muscles, enhancing your flexibility, and improving the mobility of your hips using painless procedures and exercises.
Spine Alignment
Chronic headaches, excessive fatigue, and neck pains can be due to having a misaligned spine. Our spine alignment procedure can alleviate these pains. This treatment is done by certified chiropractors using manual techniques or with specialized instruments that create a controlled force to specific points in your body. The goal of these actions is to improve the motion of your spine and promote overall body function.
Diet & Nutritional Counseling
Your chiropractor will recommend a diet that can help you promote your musculoskeletal health. They will also inform you of what food to avoid so your treatment will go on smoothly. Simple changes in your diet can manage the symptoms of your condition.
Rehabilitation
Ease your way back to your usual way of life with LifeClinic’s assistance. Whether you’re suffering from acute or severe pains, we have numerous treatments to offer that can assist in your recovery. You can undergo any of the following procedures depending on the nature of your injury:
Accident Injury Rehabilitation
Injuries from collisions, slips, and road accidents can cause various physical complications such as stiffness, dizziness, and limited mobility. These conditions can severely affect your quality of life. Our accident injury rehabilitation services will help you get back to your pre-injured state with strength and flexibility procedures to address your pain.
Sports Injury Rehabilitation
Athletes are always at risk of getting injuries during training and competitions. It can be caused by inadequate warmups, fatigue, muscle and joint overuse, or a bad fall. We recommend undergoing our sports injury rehabilitation programs to prevent your condition from getting worse.
Work Injury Rehabilitation
Workplace injuries from slips, falls, and handling heavy equipment can hinder employees from working efficiently or even miss work. Through work injury rehabilitation, patients can gracefully ease back to the workplace by undergoing a modified regimen to manage their injury and go back to their pre-injured state.
Pre- and post-operative Care
Our clinic ensures that patients get holistic care during their time with us. We believe that care before surgery is as important as getting maintenance care after their procedure. This service covers both phases of their treatment.
Preoperative optimization aims to physically and mentally prepare the patient for surgery. This procedure will ease patient anxiety by informing them of what to expect during the surgery, along with its goals, side effects, and benefits.
Post-operative care ensures that patients are on the right track to recovery following their procedure. Apart from regular blood tests, and other health checks, we will also adjust the patient’s routine, diet, and exercise to ensure their quick and proper recovery from surgery and prevent infection or other complications.
Conditions We Treat
Our clinic in San Antonio at the RIM can help determine the condition you are experiencing. By observing your symptoms and having you undergo various tests, our team will treat your condition adequately. LifeClinic can help treat various complications, including the following:
Arthritis
Arthritis is the swelling, tenderness, and inflammation of your joints. Its main symptoms include joint pains and stiffness. Common types of arthritis are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis happens when a smooth cartilage joint wears out, while rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that attacks the body. Since this condition worsens with age, it is best to treat it regularly to manage its symptoms.
Upper Back Pain
The upper back or the thoracic spine is the most stable part of your vertebral column. However, it is still subject to tightness, stiffness, and tenderness if not stretched properly. These pains can also be caused by poor posture from constantly slouching or sitting all day.
Neck Pain & Stiffness
Pain and stiffness in the neck can drastically hinder one’s movement and extend or spread to other parts of your body. If left untreated, neck pain and stiffness can make it difficult to do simple daily activities requiring head movements, such as driving and sleeping. It can also cause headaches and issues with one’s reflexes.
What to Expect
1 Examination
During your 1st visit, our providers will hear the story of what brings you in, perform a new patient examination to determine the root cause of your problem, and briefly summarize what was found.
The examination consists of motion tests, palpation, reflex testing, and muscle strength, to help identify dysfunction in movement patterns and poor muscle engagement.
2 Report Of Finding
During your second visit, your provider will recap what was found in the examination, discuss a solution, review what your personal contribution to care will be, and begin treatment on that day.
3 Daily Appointments
On each subsequent visit, our providers will perform routine assessments to ensure you are track with your treatment plan and provide treatment.
Treatment visits typically consist of a combination of:
- Chiropractic Adjustments: restores, maintains, and optimizes human function by eliminating interference within the joint and soft tissue thus restoring the synergy between your joints, nerves, and muscles. Chiropractic adjustments are only available during sessions with a chiropractor.
- Integrated Muscle and Joint Therapy (IMJT): an advanced, active form of soft tissue treatment that effectively integrates the mind, muscular, skeletal, and neurological systems to achieve optimum balance throughout the body. IMJT is a patented technique available exclusively at LifeClinic.
- Rehabilitation: carefully selected exercises and activities used in a specific sequence in order to reinforce changes made with the adjustment and IMJT. Rehabilitation retrains the body’s “movement habits.”
