Top 4 Chiropractic Conditions treated at Complete Chiropractic in Arnold MO

There are a variety of conditions that we here at Complete Chiropractic in Arnold treat on a daily basis with great results.  It seems like the majority of them all revolve around NMS or neuromusculoskeletal problems.  NMS is the combination of nerves, muscles and skeleton system which are major players in the pain game.

Dr. Bob Robertson has been specifically trained in detecting NMS problems.  For over 20 years patients have been driving far and wide to see Dr. Robertson for these top four conditions plus many, many others.  There is one condition that leads triumphs all others and will be revealed at the end of our countdown.

Migraines/Headaches………Coming in at #4 are those pesky headaches.  If you have headaches, you’re not alone. Nine out of ten Americans suffer from headaches. Some are occasional, some come and go, some are dull and throbbing, and some cause debilitating pain and nausea.  Majority of headaches are caused from tension or problems arising from the neck.  Just what the DC ordered!  At Complete Chiropractic, relieving headache pain is a daily occurrence.  Dr. Robertson prides himself on significantly reducing headache pain quickly and safely.

Pain between the shoulder blades/upper back pain……..The 3rd most common complaint at Complete Chiropractic is upper back pain.  Majority of the time patients have a dull, aching pain that is generally localized.  The patient usually can pinpoint the area of pain.  Normally that discomfort is just too either side of the spine.  A great number of patients are helped quickly through chiropractic care.

Neck Pain……..Sliding in at #2 is neck pain.  There are a number of reason why a person can have neck pain from the “whipping” action of the head from a fender bender to daily life and the cumulative processes of constantly bending, reaching and lifting.  We get a lot of “Doc, I think I slept wrong”.  They come in not able to turn their head.  They have a sharp or shooting pain when they move there neck a certain way.  Thank goodness the vast majority of our patients have a simple misalignment in the neck and can be back in action quickly through chiropractic care.  Medications tend to cover it up for a bit then the pain comes roaring back once it’s out of their system.  Getting to the cause of the problem is the best way to fix or correct neck pain.

Low Back Pain/Sciatica……..Number 1 with a bullet is low back pain!  By far the majority of our patients come in with some sort of low back pain or in combination LBP and pain radiating or traveling down one or both legs.  Pain can range anywhere from a dull ache to a sharp, shooting discomfort or even a numbness and tingling.  Dr. Robertson has a vast array of techniques to rid people from back pain fast.   From spinal adjustments to Spinal decompression each and every patient’s treatment is individualized to meet their needs.
