Chiropractic
Dr. Kalkowski
will evaluate the joint function in your spine and at any other joint that seems to be causing you pain or limited range of
motion. He provides safe and effective adjustments to the spine and other joints in order to help you achieve optimal health.
In addition to the adjustment you may also receive traction, electrical muscle stimulation, ultrasound, trigger point therapy,
soft tissue massage and application of heat or ice. If you have an injury that requires immobilization during the healing
process, Dr. Kalkowski will tape the area to provide the necessary amount of restriction.
Nutrition/Lifestyle
Counseling
In order for the nervous system to operate most efficiently, the spine which surrounds it must move
properly, and the rest of the body must be properly nourished and taken care of. Optimal health is best achieved through chiropractic
adjustments delivered during a state of optimum nutrition and reduced stress. Dr. Kalkowski will discuss your nutrition and
exercise habits, as well as your lifestyle in general. He will offer you tailored advice as to how you might improve these
areas, and in turn, your overall health. He might also recommend various supplements to aid in your treatment, recovery and/or
to promote general nutritional health.
Massage
Soft tissue massage is a critical component
in restoring proper joint function. Once joint restriction has been corrected, the proper functioning of the muscles affecting
these joints must be ensured. Massage also helps to promote circulation (a critical component to healing), and it reduces
stress. Kalkowski Chiropractic Center provides a Certified Massage Therapist to address your soft tissue needs in a professional
clinical setting.
