Debi came into Macomb Township Chiropractic with multiple health issues including neck and back pain, gerd, sleep apnea, sinus problems, and TMJ pain. Her pain levels at one point were a 7 out of 10 on a pain scale, and she was desperately looking for some type of relief for her TMJ pain. Many doctors will tell you it’s often difficult to find the exact cause of TMJ Disorder, which can cause jaw and muscle pain. Debi told us all areas of her life were being affected with this issue including sleeping, working, and relaxing. 

Debi received a full consultation on her first visit with us, as well as a complete set of Chiropractic x-rays. After the analysis, Dr. Chris found multiple areas in Debi’s spine and her neck that were out of alignment. Debi’s neck in particular was severely misaligned which caused her posture and shoulders to be uneven. This misalignment was putting severe pressure on the nerves coming out her neck and upper back, contributing to her TMJ disorder. Debi was put on a care plan geared to her problems which included regular Chiropractic adjustments, neck disc decompression on our state-of-the-art decompression table, postural rehab to help correct the shape of her spine, and muscle gun stimulation. 

After just six short weeks of therapy, Debi’s x-rays showed great improvement, and she marked on her re-evaluation form she was “totally better” in almost all areas she was having problems with when she came in. Areas of every day improvement Debi checked were: sleeping, working, house work, and activities. Eight months later, Debi was so happy that she had such TMJ Jaw Pain Relief at Macomb Twp Chiropractic that she agreed to do a video testimonial about her success in our office. She said she is feeling “amazing” today with zero complaints and so glad her TMJ pain is gone!

Jacob came into Macomb Twp Chiropractic to Prevent Back and Disc Surgery. He Suffered with severe low back, hip, and sciatic pain after being in a car accident a few months before. He was ranking his pain level at a 10 out of 10 on our pain scale. He complained that he was barely able to walk, unable to stand, work, or drive, and was basically bed-bound. He was seeing his primary doctor and an orthopedic surgeon for his back pain, and they told him he had severe disc bulges and needed surgery as soon as possible, as that was the only solution for his severe pain. Nathan decided to try one last option before surgery, and come into our office. Dr. Chris took some x-rays and found multiple areas in his spine that were very misaligned, and the disc bulges that were pinching on many of the nerves in his back. Jacob was immediately put on a care plan which included regular chiropractic adjustments, treatment on our disc decompression machine, postural rehabilitation (to correct the shape of the spine), and muscle and nerve gun therapy. After just six short weeks, Nathans new x-rays showed improvement, and he stated on his re-exam form he felt “totally better” in almost all of the areas of pain he had when he first came in. Nathan continued with his treatments and today, just four months later, he is completely pain free and no longer is a candidate for back surgery. His life is back to normal and he is working again, driving, walking pain free, and sleeping with no issues. He did a video testimonial for us because he was so happy with the success he’s had coming into our office and working with Dr. Chris. He actually stated he feels “stronger today than he did before his accident.”

Back surgery is always a risk, and many doctors will tell you that you have no other options to relieve the pain especially if you have disc bulges. But Nathan is a perfect example that you have other options! Chiropractic should always be a consideration before deciding upon surgery.

Tinnitus, sometimes referred to as ringing in the ears, is that annoying perception of sound that
does not have an external source. It affects over 50 million people a year, and most doctors do
not have a cure for it. While symptoms for tinnitus can vary from a constant ringing sound to buzzing or humming, these noises can become more than annoying for someone who’s

Many doctors try to find underlying causes for tinnitus such as earwax buildup or internal
ear damage, but the vast majority only offer help to manage the symptoms. They suggest
sound, antidepressants or anti-anxiety meds to reduce the emotional impact, or surgery, often
with cochlear implants. But doctors do not address one of the main possible causes for tinnitus, which is nerve interference. Evidence, however, suggests misalignments in the neck or spine can result in nerve pressure that directly disrupts nerve signals to the auditory system. Nerve endings in the neck have connections to the hearing centers in the brain, and if nerves are
pinched, normal signals are disrupted, causing inflammation, decrease of blood flow, and the
potential for tinnitus.

A Chiropractor named Dr. Chris McNeil, at Macomb Township Chiropractic, has successfully helped patients who have come into their office complaining about tinnitus. His office specializes in state-of-the art Chiropractic treatments that restore the normal alignment of the spine, to take the pinching and pressure off of the nerves that control the inner ear and hearing centers. Dr. Chris stated: “Tinnitus can be the result of underlying conditions”,specifically “misalignments in the neck that cause nerve pressure”.

A recent patient named Phil received tinnitus relief therapy and treatments at Macomb Township Chiropractic. He complained that his tinnitus was taking over his life and he “couldn’t think straight,” and “couldn’t do anything!” After a complete consultation and Chiropractic x-rays, Dr. Chris quickly noticed the multiple misalignments in Phil’s neck that he believed were directly causing his headaches and tinnitus. With the help of regular Chiropractic adjustments and postural rehabilitation treatments, Phil reported after just six short weeks, his tinnitus was completely gone.

So how exactly does a Chiropractor help tinnitus? At Macomb Twp Chiropractic they use specific and scientific Chiropractic rehab to realigns the spine using postural adjustments and traction to relieve any pressure on the nerves, as well as increasing blood flow to the brain and auditory system and improving overall nerve function.

Austin, a young man, came into Macomb Twp Chiropractic with  poor posture concerns a few years ago. He stated he had bad posture and noticed a distinct “hunch” in his back, which he felt he had most of his life. He was also having headaches, neck pain, and back pain, which was affecting his everyday life. Austin noted it was interfering with his working out as well as at his job. On his consultation sheet, he listed his pain levels in his back at 9’s on a scale from 0-10, and his neck and headaches, at 5’s. 

After analyzing Austin’s x-rays, Dr. Chris noted there was too much curve in his back, and his posture was out of alignment. The misalignments in his spine were also putting pressure on many of his nerves, which was contributing to the high level of pain Austin was experiencing. Dr. Chris created a care plan specific to Austin’s needs, which included manual adjustments, postural traction therapy, muscle gun stimulation, and heat and ice therapy. The specified treatments were geared to not only correcting the misalignments in Austin’s spine, but to correct the curve in his back to achieve a closer to normal position. After just four months of therapy, new x-rays were taken and improvement was noted by Dr. Chris. Austin said he felt he was about 60% better, and his numbers decreased to 5’s from 9’s. After one year, Austin’s x-rays showed considerable change in the curve in his back, and Austin stated he was “totally better” in most areas. He noticed the change in his posture and only had slight back pain which he noted as 2’s, on the scale from 0-10. His headaches were completely gone, and he was not experiencing any neck pain anymore. 

Austin was able to achieve his goal of improving his posture at our office, and said he doesn’t notice the once obvious hunch in his back. His life has improved by being able to work out again without pain, and get through the work day pain free. Watch Austin and Dr. Chris in his  Macomb Twp Chiropractic Chiropractor Poor Posture YouTube testimonial talking his improvements.

Poor Posture usually stems from the spine being aligned in an unnatural position. It can be seen by having rounded shoulders, a forward head, or a slumped or hunchback. Poor posture can not only lead to pain and discomfort, but potential health issues. Poor posture can actually begin in childhood from spinal deformities such as scoliosis, or just from excessive slouching. Long hours in school or in front of a screen, carrying a backpack, or lack of physical activity contribute to poor childhood posture. Adults can acquire poor posture from extended periods of sitting at a computer at work, carrying heavy objects regularly, or weak core muscles. Poor posture at any age can lead to permanent structural changes and have long-term consequences.

What are the Symptoms of Poor Posture?

Symptoms of poor posture can manifest in many ways. These can include pain, stiffness, soreness, and additional physical issues. Common symptoms include pain in the neck, back, and shoulders, low back pain, headaches, muscle strain or stiffness, spasms, body aches, nerve compression, and decreased range of motion.

What Kind of Problems Arise from Poor Posture?

Many problems can arise if poor posture is not corrected. Besides pain, other issues can include: breathing difficulties, digestive issues, jaw pain, poor balance, decreased mood and mental health issues, reduced flexibility, fatigue, increased risk of falls, poor circulation, foot and knee problems, sleep disorder, and joint and muscle dysfunction.

How Does Chiropractic Help?

Chiropractic is one of the most effective ways to improve posture. Chiropractors can identify misalignments, assess your current posture, and use techniques including spinal adjustments to correct and restore proper alignment and posture. Chiropractic helps to balance muscle support and relieves pinched nerves, all which help facilitate proper posture and overall body healing.

Debra's Testimonial: Overcoming Knee & Back Pain with Macomb Twp Chiropractic!

Deborah is the perfect example of someone who received knee pain relief at Macomb Township Chiropractic. She came into our office just a short time ago stating her main concern was her knee pain. She also had mid and low back pain, and was rating her pain level at a 10 on a scale from 1-10. She was walking using a walker or cane, and complained about not being able to sleep at night. She couldn’t get in and out of a car and stated she had trouble doing just about everything! Deb tried physical therapy twice for her knee pain and told us it did nothing to help! Being a little older, Deb was also dealing with some other medical issues so was seeking an alternative to more traditional medical care.

We did a full consultation with Deborah and took Chiropractic x-rays on her first visit, and Dr. Chris found areas in her spine that were misaligned. These misalignment’s were putting pressure on the nerves associated with her back and also her knees. Deborah’s gate was also off which was adding additional, unnecessary pressure on her knees when she walked. Dr. Chris tailored a care plan for Deb which included regular Chiropractic adjustments, postural rehabilitation and disc decompression therapy. In just four short months Deb was having such great results she shot a YouTube video testimonial of her Macomb Twp Chiropractic knee pain success story. She stated today she is doing “very good!” Her balance has improved, she doesn’t need to use a walker or cane anymore, she is sleeping good, and said she “feels like she’s back to normal!” When asked what her pain level is today, Deb said it’s a zero.

A patient name Jamie, who received numbness relief at Macomb Township Chiropractic, was suffering from leg numbness and back pain for years before she found relief at the office. The numbness was affecting her whole life and limited her walking, ability to climb stairs, and sleep lying down. Dr. Chris found multiple areas in Jamie’s spine that were severely misaligned, as well as a small disc bulge. A care plan that involved chiropractic adjustments, disc decompression therapy, and postural rehabilitation was created specifically for Jamie, and by the end of her plan, she was pain free, able to do stairs without assistance, walk her dog for long distances, and sleep soundly again. Her pain levels went from 7’s (on a scale from 1-10) when she first came into the office, to zero’s. Jamie did a numbness relief YouTube testimonial video for Macomb Township Chiropractic praising the therapy from Dr. Chris which basically gave her her life back! After years of suffering with numbness and back pain, Jamie is finally free to do whatever she wants again. You can watch her video testimonial on the MacombTwpChiro YouTube Channel.
