Queens Chiropractor Finds Source of Back Pain to Provide Effective and Lasting Care
Posted on 2012-02-09 08:02:08
Back pain sufferers can get natural relief from chiropractic care. Our Queens chiropractor Dr. James Lee offers non-surgical back pain treatment alternatives. Pain in your back can stem from several sources from existing conditions such as osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis, osteoporosis, scoliosis and degeneration of spinal discs to back injuries resulting in a bulging disc, a herniated disc, improper posture, muscle strain, tears or ligament injury and poor alignment of the vertebrae.
While a traditional medical practitioner may prescribe medications and recommend surgery our chiropractor will use non-invasive, non-surgical techniques to put you on the path to recovery and free you from pain in your back. There are many different types of injuries that can cause chronic back pain such as car accident injury, a herniated disc, poor posture and sports injury.
Spinal Decompression Therapy Used to Treat Back Pain
Dr. James uses chiropractic care techniques to provide you with pain relief for your back issues. Spinal decompression therapy is a popular chiropractic method used for relieving pain in your back. This is an advanced therapy that treats injuries causing pain in the back and lower neck. If you are a candidate for spinal decompression then our chiropractor will apply distraction forces to your neck and back in a precise but gradual manner. This procedure allows the vertebrae to separate which creates a vacuum-like pull that relieves pressure on discs and nerves which in turn provides back pain relief. A herniated disc can be treated with this rehabilitation therapy. Successful decompression will not only provide pain relief, but allow you to walk straighter and move more freely.

Kick Out Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Queens Pain Relief at Dr. Lee's Spine Center
Posted on 2011-12-07 12:49:57
If you think sitting around and typing all day is a harmless activity, think again. Any repetitive activity, such as typing, hammering, and chopping, can lead to the increasingly common condition known as carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel can result in tingling, weakness, burning and nerve pain in the wrist area, with the more extreme cases resulting in a loss of strength in your grip or even losing sleep because of the extreme discomfort. Dr. Lee’s Spine Center has effectively treated carpal tunnel syndrome to give you the pain relief you deserve.Chiropractor Corrects Underlying Cause of Carpal Tunnel
Our Queens chiropractor Dr. James Lee focuses on naturally healing techniques that work to correct the underlying cause of pain for a variety of conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome included. Carpal tunnel is caused by pressure on the median nerve that runs above the wrist. This pressure can come from seemingly simple yet repetitive activities or something more severe, such as an injury. Alleviating the pressure on the median nerve typically leads to an alleviation of the wrist and nerve pain and other symptoms associated with carpal tunnel.
Although the pain of carpal tunnel generally extends from the hand and wrist, correction of the condition often starts in the spine. Carpal tunnel can actually originate from a misalignment in the neck or back, which Dr. Lee can help correct with a spinal adjustment to the area. Once we pinpoint and correct the underlying cause of the pain, our carpal tunnel treatments can be enhanced with corrective and strengthening exercises to help improve circulation, promote healing, and get you back to your regular activities as rapidly as possible.

The Benefits of Spinal Decompression Versus Back Surgery

That's not even including wages lost from time off work due to this pain. A large part of the money spent on treating this pain is for surgery and subsequent recovery and rehabilitation. However, there is another way.

Our Queens Chiropractor Explains About Herniated Discs
Posted on 2011-09-06 20:53:32
The vertebrae in your back are padded by soft discs that help keep your spinal movement flexible and pain-free. Discs can become damaged during the aging process or as a result of injury. People that are dehydrated or live a sedentary lifestyle are also more likely to experience disc degeneration. A damaged, or herniated disc may bulge or break open, causing a wide range of symptoms. When a herniated disc presses on a nerve, back pain, neck pain, nerve pain, numbness, muscle weakness and bowel or bladder problems can result.
Treatment for Herniated Discs
Our spine care clinic offers non-invasive treatment options for the repair and prevention of herniated discs. Non-surgical spinal decompression therapy offered at our clinic can address the cause of herniated discs and reduce your discomfort. During a spinal decompression procedure, our Queens chiropractor, Dr. Lee, uses pressure to help return the soft tissue of the disc to its proper place in the spine. As a result, pressure on the nerve is relieved and the disc is able to heal. If you are suffering from painful symptoms associated with herniated discs, we hope that you will visit our Spine Center to see how our non-surgical treatment options can help you.
Experience Pain Relief with Our State-of-the-Art Chiropractic Services
When Dr. Lee meets with you, he will diagnose your injury by assessing your symptoms using medical and chiropractic diagnostic tools. Dr. Lee will then set up a treatment regimen that will relieve your back pain and restore your ruptured disc to its proper position. To help prevent future injury, Dr. Lee will also utilize chiropractic adjustments, muscle strengthening and exercises to improve the elasticity of the discs in your back.
