What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a health profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of both muscles and joints, including the effects of these disorders on your nervous system and overall health. Chiropractors recognize that the body has the natural ability to fight disease and achieve a state of health and therefore use neither drugs nor surgery in their treatments. Many factors can be responsible for your discomfort. Our team at Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre is interested in detecting, reducing and preventing the cause of your pain. Chiropractic care is a natural approach to better health that is proven safe and effective.
Chiropractic in Windsor
Chiropractic treatment is performed by manipulating or adjusting spinal misalignments, thereby restoring movement to fixated spinal joints. Just about everyone is a candidate; infants, children, seniors and everyone in between. If an adjustment is contraindicated, other methods of treatment will be performed or a referral will be made to a specialist. Naturally, chiropractic adjusting procedures are modified to suit each patient for maximum comfort and results. Chiropractic care is a natural approach to better health that is proven safe and effective.
A Variety of Treatment Methods
To maximize treatment outcomes, in addition to spinal and joint adjustments, state-of-the-art equipment, including ultrasound therapy, electrical muscle stimulation, TENS, laser therapy, ice or heat, will be incorporated into your care plan. We may also suggest acupuncture and soft tissue (muscle) therapy prior to your chiropractic adjustment.
New to the clinic is Radial Shockwave Therapy, a non-surgical treatment that aids in the elimination of chronically injured tissue by breaking it down and then further regenerating new and stronger muscles, ligaments and tendons. We also offer spinal decompression therapy to relieve pain related to protruding or herniated discs, degenerative disc disease, facet joint disorders and compression fractures. At Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre, we believe it is important that sufficient time is spent with each patient.
Shockwave Therapy
Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre offer shockwave therapy in Windsor. It’s a non-surgical treatment that accelerates healing and regenerates new tissue, quickening the recovery of soft tissue, bone, heel, and joint pain. You should start to notice relief about 72 hours after treatment. Recommended treatment for plantar fasciitis, tendinitis, bone spurs, arthritis and bursitis.
Laser Therapy
Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre has low-level laser light therapy to help heal injuries and bring pain relief. Laser light therapy uses compressed light from the cold, red part of the electromagnetic spectrum to help accelerate the healing process. It painlessly penetrates the surface of your skin, directing stimulative energy to your body’s cells, promoting natural healing and pain relief.
Ultrasound Therapy
At Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre, we offer ultrasound therapy to help heal your body’s tissues. It generates heat that draws blood to the area, promoting tissue restoration and healing. It has the benefits of pain relief, reduction in muscle spasms, increase in soft tissue elasticity, and increase in enzyme activity.
TENS
Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre offers Transcutaneous Electrical Nervous Stimulation (TENS) to help relax your muscles before a chiropractic adjustment. This helps promote healing, using an electrical current to stimulate nerves deep within the muscle layers. Results include less muscle tension and a decrease in pain.
Kinesio Taping
Kinesio taping is a time-tested technique that can enhance the function of your muscles and joints and can be worn and extended period to provide continued benefit between visits to Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre. It can be used right after the initial injury all the way to the rehabilitative stage, for sub-acute and chronic problems. Kinesio tape aids in decreasing pain and inflammation, facilitating muscle healing.
Compression Stockings
Compression stockings, or compression socks, are socks that are made to gently squeeze your legs. This works to improve your blood flow and help reduce pain and swelling in your legs. Compression stockings are also useful for helping to reduce the risk of other circulation problems. Cabana Chiropractic & Health Centre can take your measurements to outfit you with compression stockings that fit properly. We have a catalogue of styles for you to choose from.
