What to Expect

What to Expect

Laying the foundation for total health

In some ways, one could say that chiropractic care is a bit like building a house - certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work together correctly. When building a house, if you tried to build your walls before you had a solid foundation, your walls would be weak and eventually may even collapse. If you tried to build your roof before the walls were ready, you would run into the same problem. These concepts apply to your body as well, and chiropractic care addresses many common reasons why people experience pain and other health issues. If something is not right with your body's foundation, than that needs to be addressed before true health can be achieved. With chiropractic care, your body has to go through a particular plan of care in order to repair itself correctly and fully. There are three general phases of chiropractic care . . .


Phase 1: Relief Care

If you are in pain when you come into our Sutton chiropractic office, our first objective is to help you reduce pain and start feeling better as soon as possible. Depending on the severity of the underlying condition which is causing your pain, it is typical for a patient to need chiropractic care or adjustments 2-3 times per week for 4-12 weeks.


Phase 2: Corrective/Restorative Care

During the corrective phase of chiropractic care, muscles and other tissues are allowed to heal more completely, which helps prevent further injury or pain. The goal of corrective or restorative chiropractic care is to help bring your body back to 100% functioning. It is typical to need chiropractic care or adjustments about 4-8 times per month for 6-24 months, depending on your overall health and the severity of your problem.


Phase 3: Wellness Care

Once your body has fully healed and you are no longer experiencing back pain or other pain symptoms, it is important to come in for periodic chiropractic adjustments to avoid further problems in the future. Usually, this phase of chiropractic care only requires a quick visit to the chiropractor 1-4 times per month, based on your lifestyle and goals.

Back Pain FAQs

Back Pain FAQs

If you are experiencing back pain, concentrating, walking, and carrying out simple tasks can seem impossible to do. Fortunately, chiropractic care offers the testing and care you need to recover from back pain and prevent symptoms from returning. Is back pain negatively impacting your life in Sutton, MA? Please book an appointment with South County Chiropractic today. Our chiropractor is dedicated to providing our patients the care they need to live healthy and pain-free lives. Here are a few common questions about back pain and how chiropractic care can help.


What causes back pain?

There are several causes of back pain. Some are severe, while others are minor. Common causes we see at our clinic include:
  • Sciatica: When the sciatic nerve is irritated, you may experience back pain that travels along the sciatic nerve from the lower back to the back of one of your legs.
  • Disc herniation: Impact on your back may cause the disc to shift out of position, pinching a nearby nerve, resulting in pain, tingling, and numbness in the back.
  • Spinal stenosis: The narrowing of the vertebrae column presses on the back structures, causing pain.
  • Sprains and strains: Car accidents, slips, falls, and other personal injuries may damage your back’s tendons and ligaments, leading to pain, swelling, and limited mobility.
  • Fibromyalgia: This condition causes widespread pain in your body, accompanied by fatigue, sleep problems, and mood changes.
  • Scoliosis: The abnormal curvature of the spine may compress back structures, causing pain and stiffness.
  • Osteoarthritis: Thinning of the cartilage that cushions your vertebrae causes the bones to rub against each other, causing pain and stiffness.
While anyone can suffer from back pain, certain factors increase the likelihood of back pain. For example, the chances of experiencing back pain are higher if you are 50 or older, pregnant, overweight, lift weights, or sit for an extended period of time.


How can a chiropractor treat my back pain?

If you are suffering from back pain that won’t go away, it’s time to book an appointment with our chiropractor. Instead of using painkillers that mask your symptoms, chiropractors address the source of your pain using natural remedies. Here are some treatment methods our chiropractor uses to treat back pain:
  • Spinal adjustments: Aligning your spine lifts pressure off the compressed spinal nerves to reduce pain and improve mobility.
  • Massage therapy: If you have soft tissue injuries, massage therapy relaxes tight muscles, reducing pain and inflammation.
  • Orthotics: Stabilizing your feet allows for better stability throughout your body, resulting in an even distribution of your body weight.
  • Lifestyle advice: If your weight and occupation are the cause of your back pain, we educate you on proper posture and weight-reduction techniques.

Lower Back Pain FAQs

Lower Back Pain FAQs

If you have ever suffered from back pain, you know how debilitating and life-altering it can be. Rest assured, you are not alone. Approximately 80 percent of people experience some form of lower back pain at one point in their lifetime. It is one of the most common reasons people see a chiropractor or miss time at work and can be in the form of a dull ache or a debilitating sharp shooting pain.

Seeking chiropractic care for lower back pain treatment can help reduce the symptoms associated with this condition and help treat the cause of your pain, not just the symptoms. If you are looking for a chiropractor in Sutton, contact South County Chiropractic to learn more about our holistic approach to treating lower back pain.


The Two Main Types of Back Pain

There are two types of back pain, acute and chronic. Acute back pain is short-term back pain that typically lasts between a few days and a few weeks. Those who suffer from acute back pain are often experiencing the result of an injury or accident.
Chronic back pain is any form of back pain that lasts 12 weeks or longer and can result from an injury or chronic medical condition. Chronic back pain is persistent, and sometimes the underlying causes are not easily identifiable.


What Causes Lower Back Pain?

Acute back pain is typically caused by a brief disruption in how the back components fit together and move, such as the spine, muscles, discs, and nerves. Chronic back pain results from similar effects to acute lower back pain but is due to a long-term and sometimes congenital condition, such as scoliosis or kyphosis.

Some of the most common causes of lower back pain related to an injury include sprains, strains, muscle spasms, sports injuries, auto accident injuries, and falls. In addition, degenerative problems, such as spondylosis, often cause lower back pain due to normal wear and tear on the joints, bones, and discs. Spinal nerve compression, herniated discs, osteoporosis, and sciatica are other common causes.


Chiropractic Care Can Help With Lower Back Pain

A chiropractor can help with lower back pain through a series of non-invasive, non-addictive treatment programs. Our chiropractors use spinal adjustments, acupuncture, massage therapy, and physical therapy to help our patients suffering from lower back pain.

Knee Pain FAQ

Knee Pain FAQ

If you have knee pain, it can get in your way when engaging in activities you love. Being active in sports or simply walking can be difficult if you have a niggling knee pain. Luckily, you don’t have to suffer for long because a knee pain chiropractor in Sutton, MA, can bring an end to your suffering. While we commonly treat back and neck pain at South County Chiropractic, we also provide joint pain relief, including your knee. If you have troubling knee pain, please book an appointment today to start your journey of wellness.


Causes of Knee Pain

If your knee hurts, you would want to know why. There are several causes of knee pain. The most common causes include:
  • Osteoarthritis: If your knee pain isn’t because of an injury, the other probable cause is osteoarthritis. This type of arthritis occurs when the cartilage in your knee joint wears out, causing bones to rub against each other. If left untreated, osteoarthritis causes knee pain and stiffness.
  • Meniscus tear: An injury may cause your knee cartilage to rip, which results in pain and swelling.
  • Bursitis: A bursa is a fluid-filled sac just above your joint that prevents friction when your knee moves. Overuse or trauma may inflame your bursa, resulting in pain and swelling.
  • Sprains and strains: Sports injuries, car accidents, falls, and slips may injure your knee’s ligaments and tendons, resulting in pain, soreness, and limited mobility.
  • Knee dislocation: Your kneecap may dislocate from its socket, causing excruciating pain and limited mobility.
  • Tendinitis: This is inflammation of the tendons that connect your shinbone to the kneecap. Due to overuse or injury, your knee tendons may swell or become inflamed, resulting in pain and limited mobility.
Knee pain can wreak havoc on your overall health. However, this doesn’t have to be the case if you seek chiropractic care services. Chiropractors treat the root cause of your pain for long-lasting solutions and to prevent the recurrence of the pain.


How Chiropractors Treat Knee Pain

If you have a slight knee sprain, it can resolve itself without any medical intervention. However, if you experience knee pain that doesn’t go away after a few days or gets worse over time, it’s time to book an appointment with a chiropractor.Here are the treatments we use to treat knee pain:
  • Knee adjustment: We gently align your knee to reposition your misaligned knee joint. This reduces pressure on the compressed soft tissues.
  • Massage therapy: If you have tight muscles around your knee joint, massage therapy alleviates pain and improves mobility.
  • Stretching exercises: Gentle exercises strengthen your knee joint. They also reduce pain and improve mobility.
