Seattle Chiropractor Offers Rehabilitation Therapy

By Arthur Albao


Recovery after an injury, illness, or surgery can be lengthy and frustrating. Doctors may recommend some form of physical therapy to help you recover.

The purpose of rehabilitative therapies is to utilizes multiple techniques that while targeting specific issues, still work together to relieve pain, restore mobility, and speed recovery. Methods that might be included in one's approach include heat and cold applications, traction, therapeutic exercises and stretches, and others. This course of action is important not only to help on recover from injury, but also to strengthen muscles so that chances of recurrence are diminished and long-term weakness is prevented.

This kind of therapy can be performed by a qualified sports therapist, personal trainer or a Seattle chiropractor. The advantage of going to a chiropractor is they can also provide chiropractic adjustments which can help bring injured limbs and joints back into proper, healthy alignment. Many chiropractic clinics also offer massage therapy, which can help reduce anxiety and stress and improve circulation - and thus speed healing.

Proper rehabilitation therapy reduces downtime and can help you get back to work and the various activities you love faster and with less long-term damage. By strengthening and stabilizing the body, rehabilitation therapy both encourages the restoration of health and encourages future wellness. Chiropractors also use drug-free pain relief techniques to help reduce dependence on medication and help patients "wean" off pain medication quicker and easier.

With a multi-faceted approach, they can help patients recover fast and the individualized plans of care ensure that only the therapies the patient needs are employed, with no upselling of stuff that is "good for everyone." At the same time, they will ensure that they target the areas you need and address your specific needs.

Anyone who has been injured would benefit by contacting a local chiropractic office to schedule a comprehensive rehabilitation consultation, so that they can get back to normal as soon as possible.
