Good for Your Mental Health

Headaches, poor sleep patterns, and tight muscles are often a result of stress and anxiety. Spinal adjustments can help improve communication between the brain and the rest of the body, thus decreasing the symptoms of prolonged stress, anxiety, and depression that you may be feeling because of undetected musculoskeletal issues.

Most times, you would need more than just one session of adjustment to correct any misalignments and get rid of chronic pain. As such, you will receive instructions on when you should return for a consult or another treatment.

Pain Management at Its Finest

The debilitating effects of chronic pain can be devastating, making simple, daily life challenging. For instance, sustaining injuries from a motor vehicle accident are some of the most common and most significant causes of spinal injuries, which require chiropractic care. Whiplash and concussions require medical attention for your safe and fast recovery. For this purpose, your auto accident chiropractor may ask you to undergo a series of range-of-motion tests and neurological examinations to help them better determine the best treatment plan for you. Delta Physiotherapy and Rehab is also a physiotherapy center and we have the right tools and expertise to help alleviate your pain and discomfort.

Chiropractic and How It Can Help You

From chronic back pain and migraines to acute ankle sprains and even just helping you maintain optimal shape to complete that marathon you’ve been training for, chiropractic treatment can help alleviate your pain and improve your general wellbeing and overall function. Chiropractic care is a hands-on, non-invasive therapy that focuses on your spine, muscles, joints, and nervous system.


Chiropractors will use the best available evidence as well as their experience to help identify and diagnose the cause of your pain or discomfort and come up with a treatment plan that will work best for you.


After an initial assessment where you will be provided with best treatment options for you, you and your chiropractor will choose which treatments you are most comfortable with that will yield the best results. These treatments can include:


  • Manual joint manipulation (including spinal manipulative therapy) or mobilization
  • Soft tissue therapy
  • Electronic modalities, such as interferential current (IFC) and low level laser therapy (LLLT)
  • Acupuncture and electro-acupuncture
  • Rehabilitative exercise programs
  • Advice and exercise


One of the most common things associated with chiropractic is the associated “crack” or “pop” heard with joint manipulation. These manipulations are a gentle but quick thrust applied to a joint in order to restore the normal range of motion to the joint and improve it’s function. This “pop” is known as a cavitation and is actually caused by the sudden release of pressurized gas from within the joint. When a manipulation is applied to the spine, it is called spinal manipulative therapy. Both joint manipulations and spinal manipulative therapy have several high quality studies showing how effective it can be for pain relief, reduced medication and opioid use, neck and shoulder pain, migraines, and much, much more.
