At our Gilbert chiropractic clinic, we want our community to thrive, and that relies heavily on the health of the people within it. We work with patients of all ages, backgrounds, lifestyles, and activity levels to support them in their wellness journey.
Using safe, non-invasive treatments, we can optimize the body so it can perform at its peak. Your healing is our priority, so finding function quickly and maintaining that function is the goal. Seeking medical attention at the first sign of pain is always the best move, as it reduces the opportunity for your injury to spread and worsen.
When in pain, the body is telling us it needs help, so finding solutions that initiate natural healing is responsible and efficient. It protects the body from aggressive, risky treatments that may cause further damage and increase your downtime.
Whether you have acute pain, chronic pain, slight discomfort, motion loss, or anything in between, we’d like the opportunity to work with you. Our experienced team is ready when you are.
Common Conditions We Treat
Chiropractic Care for Back Pain and Low Back Pain
Chiropractors have extensive knowledge of the spine, making them a popular choice when it comes to back pain. The spine is intricate and, when healthy, provides much balance, support, and movement. Because we use our backs regularly, the spine is at risk for injury, and proper alignment can be interrupted.
Your back pain may be caused by:
- Disc herniations
- Sciatica
- Back sprains and strains
- Degenerative joint disease
- Spinal stenosis
- Spondylolysis
Chiropractic Care for Neck Pain
Neck pain increases yearly due to more time spent on handheld devices, improperly set up workstations, and unsustainable posture. Learning about neck health and how to care for it will help you maintain strong, confident neck function.
If you have any of the following neck injuries, we can help:
- Whiplash
- Pulled muscles
- Neck pain due to poor posture
- Arthritis
- Pinched nerve
- Sports injuries
- Spinal stenosis
- Herniated discs
- Joint sprains
- Soft tissue strains
- Degenerative disc disease
Offering in-office treatments and take-home exercises and stretches, we’ll find a protocol to end your neck pain and keep it away.
Chiropractic Care for Shoulder Pain
The shoulder joint is impressively dynamic and gives a superior range of motion; when it’s struggling to support your movements, chiropractic care may be the answer. Whether you regularly use your shoulder to perform your sport or you slept on it incorrectly, we can be of service.
Conditions we’ve successfully treated include:
- Rotator cuff injuries
- Shoulder impingement syndrome
- Shoulder arthritis
- Bicep tendinitis
- Bursitis
Faulty movement patterns can lead to worsening conditions, so let’s get your body stable as soon as possible.
Chiropractic Care for Elbow Pain
Most of us depend on healthy elbow motion for dozens of our daily movements and tasks. Getting dressed, brushing our teeth, driving a car, working on a computer- all of these things normally require our arms to be bent and elbow flexibility.
Some reasons you may have elbow pain include:
- Racquet sports such as tennis, badminton, pickleball, squash, and racquetball
- Golfing
- Mousing on a computer
- Using a screwdriver
- Weightlifting
Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow are common reasons we’re visited; however, patients who suffer from these things don’t always play tennis or golf. We’ll find out what’s happening and why so we can give you the tools to get and stay healthy.
Chiropractic Care for Headaches
Anyone who’s ever had a headache knows how debilitating it can be. Even if it starts small, the stress of expecting it to worsen can contribute to it worsening. Headaches can stem from several actions: trauma, poor diet, insomnia, dehydration, environmental factors, sinuses, and hundreds of other things.
We can help treat your headaches, reducing their pain and frequency.
- Migraine headaches
- Cluster headaches
- Tension headaches
- Sinus headaches
Chiropractic Care for Knee Pain
Knee injuries are widespread among our active patients. While we always encourage physical activity, its toll on the body can be substantial. Proactive preventative care and strengthening are always best, but that often gets overlooked.
With regular use, natural wear and tear, or trauma, the knee muscles may become imbalanced, making the joint vulnerable to further injury.
Our Gilbert sports chiropractors provide a thorough assessment of your knee to learn the cause of your pain.
We’ve given care to hundreds of patients with knee pain conditions that include:
- Knee osteoarthritis
- Soft tissue tears
- Knee ligament injuries
- Knee tendinitis
- Bursitis
- Sprains and strains
Chiropractic Care for Hip Pain
The hips are home to the body's largest ball and socket joints. They’re designed to support considerable weight and to stabilize us throughout a long life. We use them in several of our everyday movements and for active lifestyles; they can easily develop imbalances and other injuries.
Some hip-related conditions we can help with include:
- Hip muscle strains
- Sciatica
- Tendinitis
- Bursitis
- Hip impingement
- Joint dysfunctions
Chiropractic Care for Sports Injuries
We applaud those of you who are involved in athletics. Whether that’s doing yoga once a week, walking your dog around the block, taking the stairs, competing in triathlons, going to the gym nightly, and all the other numerous physical activities you consciously decide to take part in. Well done!
That said, the more active you are, the more pressure you put on your body. So, it needs your attention before, during, and after an injury. Preventative methods will help improve your performance so you can perform at your best, so don’t wait until your hurt to visit our sports chiropractors.
