Chiropractic Care in Rochester Hills, MI

A chiropractor evaluates musculoskeletal concerns involving joints, movement, muscles and related symptoms, then recommends care based on the patient's history and examination findings.

Chiropractic care is a conservative approach to musculoskeletal health that may include adjustments, joint mobilization, movement guidance, therapeutic exercise and other recommendations when clinically appropriate.

A chiropractor applies a controlled movement or force to a joint. The technique and amount of force can vary based on the patient, the area being treated and clinical findings.

For some people with mechanical or musculoskeletal back pain, chiropractic care may help improve mobility and support more comfortable movement. An evaluation helps determine whether it is appropriate for you.

Some types of mechanical or musculoskeletal neck pain may respond to conservative chiropractic care. Your symptoms, health history and examination findings help guide recommendations.

Some people with sciatica-type symptoms may benefit from conservative care, depending on what is irritating or affecting the nerve. Leg weakness, major neurological changes or rapidly worsening symptoms require appropriate medical evaluation.

Some headaches are associated with neck or musculoskeletal factors. If an evaluation suggests those factors are contributing, conservative care may be considered. New, severe or unusual headaches should be medically evaluated.
