Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic is healthcare that’s focused on you. We treat your whole body, naturally and holistically. Chiropractic works with your musculoskeletal and nervous systems and their impact on your health.
Proper alignment is necessary for your body to function the way it should. If misaligned, your spine cannot move the way it’s supposed to, causing pain and discomfort. We provide natural care with no side effects to get your body back to its self-healing state.
What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is designed around keeping your Central Nervous System (CNS) in good health. When there’s a problem with your CNS, it creates a blockage or restriction between the spine and the brain.
Our job at Becker Chiropractic and Acupuncture is to identify joint misalignments, specifically in the spine. We assess how the joint is moving, or if it’s not moving as it should. Chiropractic provides the tools to determine what’s wrong, how to correct it and how to keep it from happening again.
Stress is a major factor in the creation of spinal imbalances. The goal of chiropractic care is to restore function by removing the stressors and clearing all restrictions.
Restoring Balance with Focused Care
Chiropractic is more than just neck and back pain. Our patients have seen improvement from focused chiropractic care in relation to:
- Back/neck pain
- Knee pain
- Headaches
- TMJ
- Sciatica
- Plantar fasciitis
- Sports injuries
- And more…
We have seen an increase in issues involving extremities. Chiropractic care is beneficial for any joint misalignment. Our techniques will provide the relief you need.
Our Techniques
We use several techniques at Becker Chiropractic and Acupuncture, depending on our patient’s needs. One or more techniques may be used to provide the best results for you.
Manual manipulation techniques are the most common methods used to realign the spinal vertebrae. These include:
Diversified technique
Most widely used manual manipulation technique
Thompson Drop Table Technique
Great for patients with difficulty in assuming traditional
treatment positions.
Sigma Instrument Methods/ProAdjuster
a computerized, state-of-the-art system which pinpoints the problem area. Once located, a soft-tipped wand is applied to the area using gentle pulses. The adjustment is done without cracking, popping or force. This treatment is perfect for young or old. Patients unable to tolerate traditional methods at this time can benefit as well.
We also use E-stimulation treatment which can decrease the patient’s pain and soft tissue therapy for muscles.
For Athletes
In our community, we’ve seen an increase in the number of people living more active lives. This has contributed to a positive effect on overall health. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a full-time athlete, injuries may still occur.
Sports injuries can be minor, like a simple sprain or strain that basically heals itself in a few days. Utilizing our sports chiropractic services before exercise may reduce the severity of your injury and could even prevent it from happening.
What do we do when it’s more severe? When pain becomes chronic and debilitating? Popping a pain pill is not the answer; we have solutions for you at Becker Chiropractic and Acupuncture. We don’t just treat your symptoms; we find out what the real cause of your pain stems from — and correct it!
For Golfers
West Omaha chiropractor, Dr. Dane Becker is a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician (CCSP(R)). He is also a golfer who looks forward to playing a few rounds of golf when the beautiful summer weather is upon us. He’s always seeking out simple ways to boost his golf game and wanted to share a few tips that might help you when you’re out on the course.
Arrive at the course at least 15 minutes early to do some warmups and drink water. Getting hydrated will prepare you for the game, and stretching can help ensure proper swing mechanics. Golfers tend to overlook what staying loose can do for them. You might be waiting for several minutes in between turns, during which time your body can tighten up and increase the chance of injury.
For Runners
Dr. Dane Becker is a West Omaha chiropractor who is also a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician (CCSP(R)). He studied Exercise Science before entering chiropractic college, and as a former football player, he experienced all that chiropractic can do for athletes.
Exercising is a necessity when it comes to staying healthy, but sometimes, it can take a toll on your health. Running is particularly tough on the body, wearing out the joints in your legs, hips and lower back. Even the smallest injury can turn into a huge problem when you’re training on a regular basis.
Rather than concentrating solely on running, try some other types of workouts, like swimming or taking an exercise class. It’ll lighten the load put on your joints and help you strengthen other areas of the body.
