Macomb Twp Chiropractic Chiropractor Chris McNeil

 Macomb Twp. Chiropractic Chiropractors Chris McNeil and Franklin Norton are doing a fund raiser this year to benefit a local Macomb County Charity.  For the toy and clothing drive Macomb Township Chiropractic is putting on this holiday season, the office is collecting donations of toys, dollars and clothing to be donated to Turning Point.  

Turning Point is a local non-profit charity whose mission is to provide programs and resources that enable victims and survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault to regain control of their lives.  Hundreds of woman and children are left homeless due to domestic violence and Turning Point is a place where they can go for food, clothing shelter and support. 

“There are hundreds of kids that are homeless who will not have a Christmas this year because of domestic violence. That’s why we and are doing a toy and clothing drive to benefit Turning Point, “said Chris McNeil Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractor in Macomb County MI.

In return for a donation of dollars, toys and cloths the Macomb Township Chiropractic clinic will be giving out a FREE gift. This “Gift of Health” includes a consultation, nerve assessment and full set of postural chiropractic x-rays for only $49. “This is a huge discount off the normal price of these initial chiropractic services, which could be up to $300 or more,” says Dr. Frank.

Dr. Norton also stated the cost of the initial examination and x-rays is often a barrier to people coming into the chiropractic office to get evaluated to see if chiropractic care can help many people with the health issues.  “This way we can give back to the community in more ways than one,” said Dr. Frank.”

If you are a resident of Macomb County and were thinking about checking out chiropractic care this could be your chance to not only see if chiropractic care can help you, but also help Macomb Township Chiropractic in their fund raising efforts.

           With new technology expanding the forefronts of today’s society, it seems as if there is a solution for everything nowadays thanks to the vast evolution of science. However, when it comes to health, there is no limit as to what can be achieved to further expand the understanding of health care. Thanks to the inner workings of NASA certified technology, the world of Chiropractic care now has a better way to detect nerve interference and get to the root cause of any health problem.

Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractors Chris McNeiland Franklin Nortonuse the latest in state of the art technology, including an infrared thermal Scan, and an S.E.M.G muscle test. S.E.M.G standing for Surface Electromyography which is a device that measures the amount of electrical activity within the muscles, when they are contracting, caused by muscle tension.

Muscle tension and nerve interference, is caused when bones are shifted out of proper alignment, putting pressure on the nerves causing them to be irritated and inflamed, leading to aches, pains, and even dysfunction.

The testing gives an accurate assessment of the entire spine starting at the base of the skull and finishing at the tail bone. The test measures in three colors; Green for mild, blue for moderate, and red for severe levels of nerve interference.

Patients from all over Macomb County are getting a better idea of health and healing with this new system in place. Not only have the patients been more on board with care, but the doctors at Macomb Township Chiropractic are getting better results because of it!

Dr. Chris McNeil Macomb Twp. Chiropractic Clinic director explains, “With the surface EMG muscle test, and the infrared thermographic scanner, I can now get a precise examination of any acute stress on my patients spinal nerves, and deliver specific scientific chiropractic adjustments to that exact area of the body, relieving any built up muscle tension.”   

Nerve interference can wreak havoc on a body and develop into underlying weaknesses that could go undetected for years. Orthopedic textbooks state that in an early stage of nerve interference there may not be any symptoms at all. In fact, it can be present for up to an entire 10 years without any indication of it.  

To give a better understanding of nerve interference in the spine, here’s a breakdown of what can happen in each area. Starting in the lower back, multiple levels of nerve interference can shoot through the hips and down into the legs causing not only aches and pains, but numbness, and tingling that travels all the way down into the feet if left there long enough. These nerves also control digestion, the urinary track, and reproductive system as well, so some very crucial organ systems involved. 

In the mid back, aches and pains can also be felt, but dysfunction can also be present in the Respiratory system, the cardiovascular system, and the upper digestive track.

In the neck, nerve interference controls the musculature between the shoulder blades, and down the arms. Aches, pains, stiffness, and decrease range of motion are the many symptoms associated with that kind of blockage. Headaches, migraines, TMJ, dizziness, vertigo, sinus issues, ringing in the ears, thyroid conditions, immunity problems -just to name a few, are also an array of issues that plague people on a regular basis if interference is left there long enough.

Dr. Franklin Norton is no stranger when it comes to dealing with high levels of nerve interference. He says “Over 78 trillion nerves exit from the bottom of the brain and travel to every muscle, cell, tissue, and organ of the body. With basic science we know that every nerve exits through the brain stem and travels down into the spinal cord delivering specific messages, to specific functions. With that being said, when there is interference blocking those messages from getting through, symptoms can arise globally throughout the whole entire body.”

This technology is at the leading edge of health care assessments and reporting.  It is performed to determine areas of abnormal muscle imbalance. These imbalances may be caused by spinal subluxations and may interfere with the communication between the brain and other parts of the body.

It is safe, effective, reliable, and accurate in terms of being used. Chiropractors can now continue to recommend care plans with an even greater accuracy and confidence when using the INSiGHT scanning systems.

Let nerve interference be a thing of the past, and make an appointment today at Macomb Township Chiropractic and visit www.MetroDetroitChiropractors.com for more info.

What is a Bulging Disc?

                   Bulging disc, also knowns as a Disc Herniation, are the most common reason related to pain in the spinal area.

         Bulging discs occur when pressure on a spinal disc damages or breaks down the once healthy disc, causing it to compress or change its normal shape.

          Here at Macomb Township Chiropractic and Metro Detroit Chiropractors in Ferndale, we deliver an effective treatment that helps by opening the disc space to alleviate the pressure and tension from the area. By relieving the disc pressure, this allows the irritated nerve to be reduced, which helps to subside the related pain. It also diminishes the reflex of a muscle spasm.

          One specific treatment we use is called Spinal disc decompression. It creates a negative pressure within the disc, and it essentially retracts the disc herniation. To begin, we place a special harness on the upper abdomen and lower pelvis to act as a stabilizing intermittent traction. It gently separates the spine causing a pulling and release effect. When it is appropriately applied, it creates separation within the intervertebral space creating a vacuum like suction. The vacuum effect pulls the disc herniation back into the intervertebral disc space, and in return reduces the problem.

          Our doctors, Dr. Chris McNeil (Macomb Twp Chiropractic and Metro Detroit Chiropractors Clinic Director), Dr. Franklin Norton and Dr. Peter Andersen are no strangers when it comes to dealing with Disc Herniation. In fact, it’s one of our more common conditions we see and treat. The longer an issue gets left untreated, the longer it takes for the treatment to be effective. It’s best to come in as soon as possible, and not delay the healing process.

It’s always a good thing to come in and get checked out to see if you have a herniated disc, to prevent future problems. Visit our website www.MetroDetoritChiropractors.com to find the nearest location and call to schedule your appointment now.
