Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor Offers Service That Could End Pain Permantly

Do you suffer from chronic pain?   Here are just a few of the many conditions that can be resolved permanently with the help of a Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor and the use of Active Release Techniques (ART®): 
  • headaches 
  • back pain 
  • carpal tunnel syndrome 
  • shin splints 
  • shoulder pain 
  • sciatica 
  • knee problems 
  • tennis elbow
These conditions can all be alleviated if not eliminated by a Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor. They are often caused by the overuse of muscles resulting in restricted motion, reduced circulation, and altered nerve function which leads to the formation of scar tissue in the muscle. As the scar tissue builds up, it inhibits the muscles to contract normally and the muscles begin to lose their ability to function properly.  

Ideally, one would visit a Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor before scar tissue build up occurs, but it may not be to late to prevent permanent damage. The build up could lead to the recruitment of other surrounding muscles to work harder as the body compensates. Without treatment from a Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor, over time the body will no longer be able to compensate any more and pain will result.

One of the ways your  Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor can treat these problems is with an Active Release Techniques®.  ART® is a patented, soft tissue movement system that a Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor uses to treat problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves.  Active Release Techniques® works to break up the scar tissue in the muscle restoring normal function to the soft tissue. This system, along with regular adjustments by a  Newport Beach, CA Chiropractor  is one of the most effective ways to treat the cause of the injury, and consequently prevent future injuries from occurring. 

Call 949-650-1228 today or click here to book an appointment in Newport Beach, CA. Chiropractor services can end or ease your pain using new technology and time tested methods of healing-  you owe yourself a chance at a pain-free life.

Look Leaner for Summer With Just a Few Newport Beach Pilates Workouts

According to Howard Sichel, a chiropractor and president and co-owner of Power Pilates in New York City, Pilates does more than just tone and firm your core. By initiating all movements from your center, you'll improve your posture and look leaner in just a few workouts, he says.

Newport Beach Pilates is a full-body system of specific exercises that focus on the core postural muscles (abdomen and back) and help keep the body balance.  Newport Beach Pilates, a form of exercise that branched off of yoga in the early 1900's,  builds strength in your core and can help you to look great for summer!

Because of the positive effect Newport Beach Pilates can have on your spinal column, many chiropractors have begun offering classes out of their offices.  Since Newport Beach Pilates does not require heavy equipment, this trend has been catching on like wildfire!   All you need is a bottle of water, some comfy clothing, a simple yoga mat, and of course your Newport Beach Pilates class!


We all know how important it is to look our best on the beach, so book your Newport Beach Pilates class now and start stretching your way to a sexy, strong stomach and core!
