Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a health care profession that has been around since 1895. It involves the use of the doctors' hands to help primarily musculoskeletal problems. Traditional treatment includes manipulations/mobilizations, soft tissue therapies and pain control modalities. Conditions treated by Chiropractors include muscle aches and pains, headaches, low back pain, joint conditions, disc conditions, and problems of the extremities (carpal tunnel, plantar fasciitis, frozen shoulder). Our focus is evidence based management of musculoskeletal issues and injuries. Dr Marc Baker has a special interest and certification in the management of Disc and spine related problems. If you or someone you know has back pain, call today to book a consultation with Dr. Baker.
What To Expect
Upon your first visit, our chiropractor will take a thorough health history asking you many questions about your condition. This will be followed by an orthopaedic examination to assess your ranges of motion, and to rule out other conditions. Once these procedures have been completed, he/she will give you a report of findings reviewing your condition and ways that he will be able to help you. If warranted, he/she can also send you for X-rays of your spine to rule out underlying problems such as fractures.
