Non-surgical spinal decompression is a specialized chiropractic technique designed to relieve pressure on the spine and surrounding nerves. This therapy is effective for conditions such as herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic back pain.
The treatment involves using a motorized table that gently stretches the spine, creating negative pressure within the discs. This process can help to reposition bulging or herniated discs, reduce nerve compression, and promote the flow of nutrients to the spinal discs, facilitating healing.
Our experienced chiropractors will customize a non-surgical spinal decompression plan tailored to your specific needs. This non-invasive approach allows patients to experience significant pain relief and improve mobility without the risks associated with surgery. If you're seeking a holistic solution for your back pain, our non-surgical spinal decompression therapy may be the right choice for you.

Intersegmental traction is a specialized therapy offered at Lakeshore Chiropractic designed to enhance spinal health and mobility. This non-invasive treatment involves a unique table that gently stretches specific segments of the spine, promoting improved flexibility and relaxation of the surrounding muscles.
By using this technique, we can help alleviate discomfort, increase blood flow to the spinal area, and contribute to overall spinal well-being. Intersegmental traction is beneficial for various conditions, including chronic pain, stiffness, and postural issues. Our trained professionals will work with you to tailor this therapy to meet your individual needs, ensuring a comfortable and effective experience.

Wobble cushion therapy is an innovative approach designed to enhance spinal health and improve core stability. This therapy utilizes a specially designed inflatable cushion that promotes active sitting, encouraging users to engage their core muscles while maintaining proper posture.
Benefits of Wobble Cushion Therapy
Improved Posture: Utilizing a wobble cushion helps align the spine and encourages adherence to ergonomic principles, reducing the risk of slouching.
Core Strengthening: By engaging the core muscles during regular sitting activities, patients can strengthen their abdominal and back muscles, which contributes to overall stability.
Increased Circulation: The dynamic movement promoted by the cushion enhances blood flow, which can alleviate discomfort associated with prolonged periods of sitting.
Enhanced Focus: The subtle motions involved in maintaining balance can improve concentration and focus, making it a beneficial tool for those who work at desks for extended periods.
Reduced Back Pain: Regular use of a wobble cushion can decrease pressure on the spinal discs and muscles, potentially alleviating chronic back pain over time.
Wobble cushion therapy is suitable for various settings, including home, office, or during rehabilitation sessions. It can be implemented alongside other chiropractic treatments to maximize effectiveness and provide comprehensive care.
Incorporating wobble cushion therapy into your daily routine can significantly enhance spinal health and overall well-being.

Chiropractic care plays a vital role in the treatment and prevention of sports injuries. Athletes often face unique physical challenges, including strains, sprains, and joint injuries that can hinder performance and recovery.
One of the primary benefits of chiropractic for sports injuries is pain relief. Chiropractors use targeted techniques to alleviate discomfort, allowing athletes to return to their training and competition more quickly. Moreover, chiropractic care enhances flexibility and increases range of motion, which are critical components in preventing future injuries.
In summary, chiropractic care offers a comprehensive strategy for managing sports injuries. By addressing pain, enhancing flexibility, improving biomechanics, and facilitating rehabilitation, chiropractors support athletes in achieving their peak performance while minimizing the risk of future injuries.

Digital imaging plays a crucial role in modern chiropractic practice, enhancing both diagnosis and treatment. This advanced technology allows chiropractors to obtain high-resolution images of the spine and related structures, providing a clearer view of the patient's condition.
Utilizing methods such as digital X-rays, chiropractors can accurately identify misalignments, degenerative changes, and other spinal issues that may not be visible through traditional examination techniques. This precision aids in developing tailored treatment plans that address individual patient needs.
Digital imaging also enhances communication with patients. By visually demonstrating the findings, chiropractors can help patients better understand their conditions. This understanding can lead to increased patient compliance and a more active role in their own care.
In summary, digital imaging is an indispensable tool in chiropractic care, offering enhanced diagnostic capabilities, improved patient education, and increased operational efficiency. Integrating this technology into practice not only elevates the standard of care but also supports better patient outcomes.

Auto accidents can lead to a range of injuries, some of which may not be immediately apparent. It is crucial to seek proper care to address any physical concerns that may arise after an accident. Chiropractic care plays an essential role in the recovery process by providing a holistic approach to restoring spinal alignment and mobility.
Following an auto accident, it is common to experience neck pain, back pain, headaches, and limited range of motion. These symptoms may result from whiplash, herniated discs, or other musculoskeletal injuries. Chiropractors are trained to evaluate your condition comprehensively, utilizing physical examinations and diagnostic imaging as needed.
If you have recently been involved in an auto accident, it is essential to consult with a qualified chiropractor. Early intervention can significantly impact your recovery journey, ensuring you regain optimal health and function.

Chiropractic care plays a vital role in promoting health and wellness for both pregnant women and children.
Prenatal Chiropractic Care
During pregnancy, a woman's body undergoes numerous changes. These changes can lead to discomfort and pain, particularly in the lower back, hips, and pelvis. Chiropractic care can help alleviate these issues by:
Improving Spinal Alignment: Regular adjustments can maintain proper alignment, which may relieve pressure on nerves and help reduce pain.
Enhancing Pelvic Balance: A balanced pelvis can help create more space for the growing baby and may contribute to an easier labor process.
Reducing Labor Time: Studies suggest that women who receive chiropractic care during pregnancy may experience shorter labor times and fewer complications.
Managing Symptoms: Chiropractors can assist in managing common pregnancy-related symptoms, such as nausea, headaches, and sciatica.
Pediatric Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is also beneficial for children, addressing various issues that may arise during their development. Children's bodies are constantly growing, and maintaining proper alignment is crucial for their overall health. Pediatric chiropractic offers:
Alignment Checks: Regular assessments can identify any misalignments early, preventing potential long-term issues related to posture and mobility.
Support for Common Conditions: Chiropractors can help manage conditions such as ear infections, colic, and bedwetting through gentle adjustments and holistic care approaches.
Injury Recovery: Children are active and prone to injuries. Chiropractic care can assist in the recovery process, enabling a quicker return to normal activities.
Encouraging Healthy Development: By supporting a healthy spine and nervous system, chiropractic care can enhance a child's overall development and immune function.
Both prenatal and pediatric chiropractic care emphasize gentle techniques tailored to the specific needs of mothers and children. With a focus on safety and professionalism, these services aim to promote optimal health and well-being for the entire family.
