Benefits of Chiropractic Care

The benefits of therapeutic touch in general and Dr. McIntyre's therapies in particular are manifold. By ensuring the proper and pain-free movement of the spine and its associated and soft tissues (including muscles and cartilage) makes it possible for an individual to feel more comfortable in their own bodies by giving them relief from pain and stiffness and allows them to participate in activities that make life meaningful. Being able to move easily not only makes exercising and playing sports more enjoyable, it can also make activities of daily living much easier to perform.

People hold the results of trauma, surgery, and emotional stress in their bodies and the therapeutic touch that is involved in treatment can release muscular tension, leading to stress reduction and a sense of greater well-being that will be felt in all aspects of a one's life.

As a safe and non-invasive treatment, chiropractic care may be able to rehabilitate a long-standing injury or one that has made itself felt more recently. Many people are able to avoid potentially harmful medicines as well as invasive surgeries by turning to more conservative methods. For those that have already had surgery, manual therapy can help aid in the healing and recovery process.
