Backpain
Chiropractic works the best for lumbar or low back. The lumbar role is also called million dollar role. Probably, its because of millions of dollars that this move has saved the economy. Using chiropractic overloads the spine with pressure. This is similar to overloading during weigh training. As a result, next time pressure is exerted on the back through lifting a heavy object the spine becomes stronger.
Knee Pain
Knee pain may be due to:
Knee subluxation
Knee muscle spasm
Torn Knee Ligaments, torn meniscus, Torn Cruciate ligaments
I have treated many torn meniscus problems. I usually can tell when the meniscus is torn without an MRI. However, if the patient can afford it I send them for MRI . The latest patient had a torn and the studies have verified my initial diagnosis. I recently treated a patient with medial meniscus torn in 3 parts. I put him on a treatment program including therapy, exercise, cycling and weight training. He returned to work after a 3 weeks.
