Combining Acupuncture and Chiropractor Care for
Back Pain
Are you dealing with excruciating back pain?
You start walking across the room and suddenly
have to drop to a knee as back spasms hit. Which
type of treatment is best for eliminating back
pain, acupuncture or the care of a chiropractor?
The correct answer is both. The two types of
treatment are very different and serve different
purposes, but when used together their power is
multiplied. A La Quinta chiropractor who also
offers acupuncture services has a distinct
advantage over other doctors. Let us examine
why.

The Different Approaches to Eliminating
Pain Chiropractors treat spinal issues, joint
issues, and other structural problems which
result in nerves being affected causing pain.
They manipulate the spine to realign it and allow
the smooth flow of nerve signals and to alleviate
pinched or irritated nerves which cause pain. A
La Quinta acupuncture specialist does not make
any structural changes to your body. They work
directly on treating nerve centers and energy
flow in the body. The treatment is focused on
alleviating pain by balancing the bodys energy.
A Palm desert chiropractor may or may not give
you immediate relief with their treatment. The
healing process takes time. You normally
experience improvements almost immediately, but
the body must still adjust the changes before the
healing is complete. Acupuncture is more
immediate. When the nerve centers, or meridians,
are treated the relief can be instantaneous. The
pain is blocked. Unless the underlying problem
is not structural, acupuncture does not address
the root cause of pain. Now, when you combine
these two treatment forms you get the best of
both worlds. You address the underlying cause of
pain so it disappears. You address your
immediate pain issues so you can relax. The
combination multiplies in power since both
techniques work to improve nerve communication,
free flowing energy, and balance. With less pain
your body accepts the chiropractic treatments
more effectively. With the spinal issues
corrected the acupuncture treatments become more
effective because energy flows more freely.

Additional Services Can Increase
Effectiveness You challenge is to search through
the variety of Palm Desert acupuncture
specialists, La Quinta chiropractors, and clinics
to find a center which can provide all of your
needs. Check to see if the clinic also offers
other advanced services like massage therapy,
laser treatments for pain, and spinal
decompression. When the chiropractor has a wide
range of treatment forms to select from he can
customize your treatment to be even more
effective. One final suggestion you need to
consider, how much difference does diet play?
The best chiropractors for treating back pain
should be able to offer you nutritional advice,
too. When you body is lacking in the proper
vitamins, minerals, and micronutrients it cannot
communicate properly or heal as quickly. It is
the combination of treatment, exercise, and diet
which makes for the best results. Do not choose
between using acupuncture or a chiropractor.
Choose to use a specialist who can treat your
condition using both for faster results,
immediate relief, and stop dropping to your knees
in pain.
