Chiropractic care stands as the centerpiece of the healing techniques Dr. Ghessi uses.  Chiropractic care is concerned with the health of the spine and the nervous system.  Dr. Ghessi uses both traditional and new approaches in chiropractic care, to give you the best opportunity to heal.  

 

Chiropractic care is a natural, non-invasive and drug-free therapy that focuses on releasing spinal tension and correcting misalignments of the spinal column which restores proper function of the spine and nervous system.   

 

Chiropractic care at Ghessi Chiropractic and Wellness is delivered over a period of time, and you will know how long it is expected for you to start seeing the benefits after your initial evaluation and report of findings.  We do not offer "quick fix" or "one off" types of services.   Therefore, you should be prepared to invest time and commitment to your treatment if you become a patient.

 

Many of our treatment plans incorporate more than just adjustments because to get maximum benefit from your visits we know that areas such as nutrition and lifestyle must be as well.

Traditional Chiropractic Adjustments

 

Traditional chiropractic care is done through adjustments of spine, designed to resolve misalignments that lock the spine from functioning correctly and restore proper spinal joint movement, as well as take pressure off the discs, tissues and nerves of the spine.

 

These misalignments are called "Subluxations". By adjusting the subluxations, tension is released from the spine and nerves, and the spine is returned to normal function once again.  When the spine is free of subluxations, your body's ability to heal pain and problems is greatly improved. 

 

Adjustments are safe, effective and pain free for most patients.

Massage Therapy and Physical Therapy

 

Physical Therapy and Massage Therapy services are also a part of the healing treatments available to our patients.  Allowing the soft tissue to heal properly insures greater range of motion, less pain, less scar tissue and quicker recovery times.

Functional Medicine and Nutritional Programs 

 

Functional medicine is a non-drug treatment system that works by strengthening the body's systems by focusing on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease and pain. Each symptom a person has is a "sign" of an internal issue that the body has not been able to handle and cure.  Therefore being able to see these signs as an indicator to guide your treatment we can learn what is actually causing the issue.  Modern medicine only seeks to quiet the symptom, therefore the actual problems are still left in place.  You are left with a false sense of security, and a good chance the problem will persist and get worse over time.

 

As modern diagnostic approaches indicate, over 90% o the illness, pain , and problems people face today are the result of lifestyle factors.  What this means is that by changing the type of nutrition we have, amount of physical activity we do, how we handle stress, and the way we care for our body can eliminate the cause of most of the problems people face today.  Likely the type of ongoing pain and problems you face can be reversed with the correct changes and non-drug therapies.   

 

Dr. Ghessi will recommend specific functional medicine protocols to address the underlying causes, which will help strengthen and energize your body systems.
