Marinkovic Chiropractic Performs Non-invasive Back, Neck & Spine Therapy

TREATMENT PROCESS
WHY CHOOSE MARINKOVIC CHIROPRACTIC?

Our method at Marinkovic Chiropractic differs from the traditional "twist and crack method." We correct the 'cause' of your symptom(s) by restoring the normal curvature of the spine.

Lotions, potions, and pills can reduce your symptom(s), but they cannot fix the 'cause' of your symptom(s). When the 'cause' is not corrected, your symptom(s) tend to get worse to the point where medications are no longer effective.

In the mid 1990's, we helped pioneer a sophisticated computerized technique called the RESULTS SYSTEM designed to correct the 'cause' of your symptom(s). By using this technique, we have helped patients who were scheduled for spinal surgeries and others who have already had surgeries prior to receiving treatment from Marinkovic Chiropractic.

SUBLUXATION

The Chiropractic term for the 'cause' of your symptom(s) is called a SUBLUXATION. These are misaligned bones of the spine that aggravate or pinch the spinal cord and nerves exiting the spine. Subluxation(s) can result in symptoms such as neck pain, headache, low back pain, numbness, sciatica, carpal tunnel, and others. Since the nervous system touches every organ in your body, symptoms, such as irritable bowel syndrome, asthma, ear infection, fever, and others, have been helped through Chiropractic care.

Subluxation(s) can be caused by repetitive motions at work/home/school, carrying a heavy book bag on the same shoulder, car accidents, contact sports, slips and falls, bad posture, sleeping habits, bumper cars, or anything that whips your spine. Due to the multitude of causes, the number of subluxations present in the general population is high.

If you or someone you know have been told that there is arthritis in the spine, there may be long standing subluxation(s). Degeneration of the vertebra and disc, commonly referred to as Degenerative Disc Disease and/or Osteoarthritis, occur when the subluxation is present for 10 years or longer. In most cases, arthritis in the spine is NOT a disease of old age, but rather how old the problem really is. Once the subluxation is corrected through Chiropractic care, the degenerative process can be slowed as well as prevented. Spines that do not have subluxation(s) are most likely arthritis-free regardless of the person's age.

INSTRUMENTS

Visualizer/Radiographs:
The Visualizer is a unique new approach to an age old problem. Regular X-Ray, MRI, and CT scans must be performed while lying or standing still. Unfortunately, subluxation(s) are detected more efficiently when the spine is put through motion. The doctor performs a 'scan' of your spine while standing in an open room. As the scan is performed, an image of your moving spine is projected onto a video monitor and recorded. This means INSTANT RESULTS (no waiting days or weeks for a radiologist). YOUR PROBLEM CAN BE CARED FOR IMMEDIATELY!

Derma-Thermograph:
The Derma-Thermograph is an F.D.A. approved instrument, which is used to record the skin temperature adjacent to the spine by using digital technology. The instrument indicates to the doctor the condition of your spine and nervous system.

Computerized Spinal Analysis & Corrective Device:
This F.D.A. approved S.M.A.R.T. Adjuster & Correction Device is able to locate and correct subluxation(s) in the spine. The S.M.A.R.T. Adjuster and Correction device in conjunction with the Visualizer provides one of the highest rates of detection of subluxation(s) to date in the Chiropractic profession. This instrument uses gentle harmonic vibrations on the specific area in order to unlock the subluxation(s), which are "stuck" in place. The instrument is so gentle, it is used on children, as well as on adults.
