Why Middle-Aged Women Benefit From Chiropractic Care

With their 20s and 30s in the rearview mirror, women who enter their middle years— often defined as being between ages 40 and 60—often experience a host of physical challenges, such as chronic back pain, hormonal imbalances, stiff necks, strained muscles, and more.

If you’re like a lot of women, you’re seeking a drug-free way to not only get out of pain but optimize your health and wellness. We believe that chiropractic care fits the bill perfectly. Dr. Campbell shares some ways that chiropractic care helps middle-aged women feel their best.

Move Freely and Live Pain-Free

Did you know that middle-aged women are especially prone to musculoskeletal challenges due to factors such as hormonal changes and natural ligament flexibility? Dr. Campbell explains, “Women are generally more flexible than men, which can cause ligaments to loosen and vertebrae to shift out of place. This can result in pinched nerves, strained muscles, or joint instability.” These factors can compound, leading to chronic discomfort or limited mobility if they’re not addressed.

Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper alignment to the spine and joints, relieving pressure on nerves and reducing inflammation. This form of care is particularly effective for alleviating low back pain and pelvic issues, common complaints for many middle-aged women.

Beyond Chiropractic Adjustments

While chiropractic care does a fantastic job of addressing pain, Dr. Campbell takes a well-rounded approach to care that includes the following:

• Quantum Neurology® and muscle testing to strengthen neurological function
• Lymphatic and acupressure treatments for organ function and stress reduction
• Functional lab testing with narrower ranges to detect early health issues
• Brain exercises and nerve inflammation reduction for overall wellness

The Importance of Early Intervention

Early intervention allows us to detect underlying issues as they crop up, addressing them before they turn into bigger concerns. This preventative approach is especially valuable when traditional medical tests may indicate “normal” results, yet you’re still experiencing persistent symptoms. By catching and resolving these problems early, you can stay ahead of potential health challenges and maintain your health.

Personalized Treatment Plans

Tired of feeling rushed at other healthcare offices? You won’t feel that way when you’re here. Dr. Campbell takes the time to listen and really understand what’s going on with your health. That’s why the initial visit usually lasts 90 minutes. “We can really dive into all of those problems that you might have, and not just ‘my neck hurts’ or ‘my back hurts.’ We can really address various different things that you have going on.”

This more extended visit gives our chiropractor plenty of time to perform a thorough evaluation and provide treatment for various concerns. Follow-up appointments are 30 minutes; through various techniques, we can address everything from neck pain to hormonal balance.
