Mid back pain is pain in the middle of your back that can be sharp, stabbing, dull, achy, radiating, or cramping, and be associated with tight muscles. Mid back pain can cause many additional problems such as neck pain, numbness or tingling in your arms or legs, weakness, spasms, difficulty in walking or sitting, and overall decreased quality of life. This pain can be caused by many different things including injury, strain, poor posture, disc issues, misalignment of the spine, pinched nerves, scoliosis, and more. The usual treatment for mid back pain is over-the-counter pain relievers like Tylenol or Ibuprofen, heat or ice, and rest. Unfortunately, these are temporary fixes and do nothing to fix the real problem. But for patients with mid back pain in Macomb Township Michigan, Macomb Township Chiropractic offers a permanent solution, and many of their patients will testify after completing Macomb Twp Chiropractor Dr. Chris McNeil’s personalized Chiropractic care plan, their back pain is completely gone! One such patient with mid back pain at Macomb Township Chiropractic is Janet. Janet came into the office in the fall of 2023 complaining about mid back pain as well as low back pain, and pain and spasms in her ankles and feet. On a pain scale from 1-10, Janet listed her back pains at 6, and her feet pain at a 9. She said “the middle of her back felt like it had a vise on it!” She said she wasn’t sleeping well at night and would wake up numerous times due to the pain, which was affecting her normal daily activities. On Janet’s first visit, Dr. Chris took a full set of Chiropractic x-rays and after analysis, discovered she had many areas of spinal misalignment's. With a care plan that included postural rehabilitation, disc decompression, and regular adjustments, just six short weeks later Janet’s x-rays showed improvement. On her Re-Assessment Form, Janet actually checked off all the boxes that showed “Totally Better.” Janet recently did a patient testimonial in which she stated today she’s pain free, and listing all zeros at her regular appointments. She said she is “sleeping at night” and “not waking up anymore”. She also shared the revelation that she saw a different chiropractor before coming to Macomb Township Chiropractic for mid back pain, and he told her she had “bad scoliosis and it would never straighten out”, but “with me coming here, my spine is pretty close to being normal.” Janet said she is extremely happy and so glad she found Macomb Township Chiropractic to help her with her mid back and feet pain that she was suffering from since 2020! So if you are suffering from mid back pain for years or even a short amount of time, Macomb Township Chiropractic in Macomb, Michigan, may have the healthy answer to finally become pain free!

Macomb Township Chiropractic Helps Patient With Disc Bulges and Herniation's Anyone who has ever experienced disc problems knows how painful it can be! Spinal Discs are the rubbery pads between the bones in your spine that act as a cushion and support to the spinal cord and all the trillions of nerves that come out of it. These discs can become injured due to sprain, degenerative disease, or herniation. All of this can cause pain, numbness, weakness, impaired mobility, and overall diminished quality of life. But there is a possible solution for Disc Bulges and Herniation's at Macomb Township Chiropractic, and one of their recent patient testimonials confirms it! Macomb Township Chiropractic offers state of the art treatments for those suffering with disc issues. Their disc decompression machine gently pulls and separates the discs, giving almost instant relief to nerve pressure.

Linda, a patient with Disc Bulges and Herniation's at at Macomb Township Chiropractic, has an inspiring testimonial about her journey with herniated disc pain. She came into the office with severe back pain and sciatic pain she rated at a 10+ on a scale from 1-10. She talked about how it was affecting all areas of her life from sleeping, walking, working and even eating! Linda saw another chiropractor for a few months with no success, and her doctor was giving her cortisone shots, which also did nothing for the pain. Linda had an MRI done which showed she had disc herniation, which often leads to back surgery.

Spring Can Be a Time to Start Fresh at Macomb Township Chiropractic! Macomb Township, MI -- March 28, 2024 Spring is here, and what a better time to take a fresh look at how chiropractic can help you feel better and be ready for the season! Spring means opening up the doors and windows and getting outside to do more things you weren’t able to do in the winter months of Michigan. Whether it’s going out for a walk, or visiting the park, or maybe turning over your garden, Dr. Chris McNeil at Macomb Township Chiropractic reminds you that they are there to help you feel better while venturing out! Winter’s long months of inactivity may have your neck or back feeling a bit tight or achy, or maybe your hips are hurting you or those nasty seasonal allergies may be kicking in. Chiropractic care is just the answer to helping you feel better. Many people who are experiencing pain, headaches, or allergies this time of year, resort to the traditional treatments which include pain medications, oral antihistamines, decongestants, or steroids. While these treatments may give temporary relief, they come with many side effects and do not actually treat the problem. Regular use of pain relief products such as ibuprofen can cause intestinal and stomach problems, kidney damage, changes in blood pressure, and liver damage. Medications for allergies used on a regular basis can cause shortness of breath, drowsiness, increased heart rate, and agitation. Dr. Chris McNeil,owner of Macomb Township Chiropractic, believes in treating a condition not from the outside in, but the inside out. Chiropractic adjustments promotes healing from the inside. The spine is the lifeline to all our organs, tissues, and muscles, as well as our immune system. Regular chiropractic adjustments have proven to improve immune system function as well as increase blood flow to all nerve tissues. Dr. Chris McNeil states, “with a clear nervous system, your body and your life can be better from the inside out.” Children are also affected by aches and pains as well as seasonal allergies. Macomb Township Chiropractic is one of the leading centers in Macomb who work with children. Now is the time to look into alternative treatments if your children are suffering from aches and pains or allergies. Seasonal allergies involve many organs and tissues associated with the sinuses as well as the immune system. Regular adjustments have been shown to balance the system more properly and can even relieve asthma symptoms. Dr. McNeil states “it’s never too early to get your kids involved in chiropractic care!” Don’t let the spring season get you down and out. Call Macomb Township today, at 586-566-2273 to schedule an appointment today. You can also book online on the Macomb Twp Chiropractic Facebook page or their website http://www.MacomTwpChiro.com and take advantage of their new patient special of only $20.

Chiropractic is not just for back pain! It can help with neck pain and headaches, shoulder pain, hip pain, muscle spasms and numbness in legs and arms, leg pain, hip pain, shoulder and joint pain and stiffness. Dr. Chris’ presentation will also be a great refresher for his current patients on all the different areas of the body that continue to benefit from regular chiropractic care. "Keeping the spine aligned with regular adjustments helps the central nervous system function better, which affects every muscle, tissue, and organ in the body. This affect also helps the body’s ability to heal damaged tissues quicker, and allows one to recover naturally from injuries and other conditions" say Dr. Chris McNeil Macomb Twp Chiropractic Chiropractic. Macomb Township Chiropractic features many testimonials from patients who have found relief from many different conditions that otherwise were not improving from traditional medical treatments.

Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractor Chris McNeil Helps Residents with Headaches, Migraines, and Sinuses
Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractor Chris McNeil Helps Residents with Headaches, Migraines, and Sinus’ Macomb Township, Michigan – May 10, 2023 Macomb Township Chiropractic, one of the leading Chiropractic Practices in Macomb Township, wants you to know that headaches can be a real pain in the neck! When you get headaches, it can affect every aspect of your life, from work to family time, sports to exercising, socializing and relax time. Headaches can also affect your body in other ways ranging from depression, anxiety, increased stress levels and fatigue. Migraine headaches can be so intense that they can cause nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound, are often reoccurring and affect over 28 million people aged 12 and up. There are many different types and causes of headaches: tension, cluster, allergy or sinus, exertion, migraines, and also post-traumatic headaches. But one of the most overlooked types of headaches is a spinal headache. Constriction or pinching of nerves in the neck and cervical spine due to misalignment's can cause improper nerve flow to the head and brain, thus contributing to migraine headaches. Nerves leading from the spine control every function of our body, and misalignments of the spine causing nerve pinching and pressure can have negative effects on almost every tissue in the body, especially the nerves in the upper neck and head. One of Macomb County's prominent chiropractors Dr. Chris McNeil has been successfully helping people of all ages with headaches and migraines for many years now. While the medical approach to treating headaches and migraines is often over the counter drugs such as Tylenol and Ibuprofen, or prescription drugs like Steroids and Opioids. Dr. Chris believes a natural approach to stimulate and restore proper nerve function from the spine with chiropractic adjustments is the key to relieving headaches and migraines."Tens of thousands of people die every year from taking over the counter and prescription pain relievers so I always recommend trying safe and natural chiropractic care to help correct the cause of headaches first," says Dr. Chris McNeil Macomb Twp Chiropractic Chiropractor. Not only do chiropractic adjustments help with headaches, but research shows they can decrease the frequency of recurring headaches. Macomb Twp Chiropractic is one of the few offices in the state that offer Chiropractic Biophysics and disc decompression therapy. This philosophy seeks to not only identify the cause of your pain or health issue, but to correct it with various methods such as postural rehabilitation, disc decompression therapy, postural traction, postural adjustments and managed corrective care. Macomb Township Chiropractic boasts of success stories from many of their patients who have found relief from headache and migraine pain. Gerry came into the office in November, 2022, complaining of headaches he was having for months, with a pain level of 10, extreme. After four months of treatment from Dr. Chris, Gerry’s last re-exam showed vast improvement and he rated his level of pain for headaches at a 3, or mild. So if you or someone you know is suffering from headaches or migraines, call their office at 586-566-2273 to set up an appointment. They are currently offering a new patient special of only $20 for your initial consultation and a full set of chiropractic x-rays. Don’t let headaches and migraines get in the way of your daily life when help is available from Dr. Chris at Macomb Township Chiropractic.

Dr. Chris McNeil Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractor Helps Athletes Recover Faster From Injuries and Perform In Sports Better
Dr. Chris McNeil Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractor Helps Athletes Recover Faster From Injuries and Perform In Sports Better Macomb Township, Michigan – March 2, 2023 Macomb Township Chiropractic is one of the leading chiropractic centers in Macomb County who help athletes of all ages and types with sports related injuries as well as achieving peak performance levels. Founder and chiropractor Dr. Chris McNeil, Macomb Twp Chiropractic Chiropractor, says “we help a lot of athletes not only recover from injuries, but prevent injuries from reoccurring and even enhance sports performance.” Chiropractic care is essential for athletes because it helps prevent injuries and allows for faster recovery if an injury occurs. It improves an athlete’s musculoskeletal system and optimizes their entire nervous system as well. There are typically two different types of injures that can occur and essentially put a person out of the normal healthy alignment. First are big traumas from something like a hard fall or a hard hit. Next are little traumas which happen with repetition over a long period of time. When an athlete is put out of the proper alignment, this can cause pressure on the nerves, muscles and joints and lead to aches, pains and other health issues. These misalignment's are what a chiropractor treats, with chiropractic adjustments and other therapies, to slowly and gently put an athlete back into a normal healthy alignment (with less nerve, muscle and joint pressure) so a person can heal and feel better. Most professional and college teams have their own professional chiropractors on staff. Some of today’s top professional athletes also agree that athletes who stay aligned with Chiropractic treatments are healthier and less likely to encounter serious sports injuries. Tom Brady, one of the greatest NFL quarterbacks in history believes Chiropractic Care has helped keep him at the top of his game. “Chiropractic just makes you feel so much better” he’s quoted as saying. “I feel like I’m a step ahead of the game.” Tiger Woods, an accomplished pro golfer says seeing his Chiropractor throughout the years has been an instrumental part of his success. “I’ve been going to Chiropractors as long as I can remember. It’s as important to my training as practicing my swing” Woods is quoted as saying. Macomb Township Chiropractic and Chiropractor Dr. Chris McNeil has numerous testimonials of their own from regular patients who have benefited from Chiropractic Care and helped their athletic performances.

Macomb Twp Chiropractor's Chiropractic Technique Specializes in Treating Scoliosis Macomb Township, Michigan – August 11, 2022 Macomb Township Chiropractic founder Dr. Chris McNeil is leading chiropractors in Macomb Township for treating Scoliosis. Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine which can lead to uneven shoulders and hips, bump in the back, numbness, weakness or pain, trouble walking or standing straight, loss of height and other health problems. Scoliosis is often diagnosed early in childhood, but adults can develop it later in life as well due to disc degeneration. This condition can also get worse over time. The current treatments for scoliosis include:
Dr. Chris McNeil, at Macomb Twp. Chiropractic, specializes in Biophysics Chiropractic, which is specific, scientific chiropractic adjustments and spinal rehabilitation that specifically can help scoliosis. Dr. Chris McNeil heads the office, and is part of only 1% of chiropractors in the country that are trained in these techniques. Spine and posture rehab slowly retrains the body with time and repetition, to come closer to a normal, healthy spinal alignment, and takes pressure off the nerves, discs, joints, and muscles. These therapies can help in children as well as adults. Dr. Chris is quoted as saying “healthy children become healthy adults.” In a study quoted in the Journal of Chiropractic Medicine, a 24 month analysis of regular chiropractic rehabilitation with scoliosis patients proved that 78% of the patients showed improvements in spinal angles, pain, and disability rating. So why wait if you are considering treatment options for scoliosis for yourself or your child?

Macomb Twp. Chiropractors Scientific Technique Helps Athletes with Sports Injuries and Peak Performance
Macomb Twp. Chiropractors Scientific Technique Helps Athletes with Sports Injuries and Peak Performance Macomb Township, Michigan – August 11, 2022 Pain is often an ongoing problem for athletes. Athletes especially are prone to stiffness and pain in their muscles and joints, which inhibits their range of motion and performance. Chiropractic care helps many athletes with sports injuries, as well as achieving peak performance levels. Sports require constant movement, which means your body is in constant motion. Regular chiropractic care has proven to help athletes with increased flexibility, ability to maintain stronger muscles, improve posture (which helps with weak joints and imbalance issues), and increase proper body function. In a study quoted in the Journal of Chiropractic Medicine, a damaged central nervous system can zap your energy and make your performance sub-par. Injuries are more likely to occur, and healing times are longer. If you are serious about sports and reaching peak performance levels for yourself or your child, chiropractic can help! Of the many chiropractors in Macomb Twp. Dr. Chris McNeil, at Macomb Twp. Chiropractic, specializes in Chiropractic Biophysics. This specific and scientific chiropractic technique focuses on postural chiropractic adjustments and spinal rehabilitation in addition to disc decompression therapy. These treatments can specifically be geared to the athletes and can not only help with sports injuries, but can help an athlete achieve peak performances. Don’t assume these symptoms are normal for athletes: headaches, body pain, limited range of motion, and stiffness in joints. Many of these issues can directly be related to misalignments in the spine. When there are misalignments, it’s harder for your brain to communicate with your body. This can account for slow reflexes, shortened endurance, and decreased performance. You are also more prone to injury. Chiropractic can help injuries in the following ways:
"Pain treated with a pill only masks the true issue. Chiropractic care treats pain from the inside out, not the outside in," says Dr. Chris. So why wait? Take advantage of the $20 new patient special being run at Macomb Twp Chiropractic and make an appointment with Dr. Chris McNeil to learn more about their unique, chiropractic techniques. The $20 covers your first visit which includes a comprehensive consultation and a set of chiropractic x-rays, which usually runs $150. Their friendly staff is waiting to schedule you at your convenience.

Chris McNeil Macomb Twp Chiropractic Chiropractor Open & Essential During Corona Virus COVID-19 in Macomb County MI
During these stressful and ever changing times in Michigan and Macomb County in the midst of the Corona Virus COVID-19 global pandemic there have been a lot of misconceptions and unknowns. Michigan's governor, Grethchin Whitmer, has taken on much scrutiny and blow back from many of her decisions pertaining to the closing of business, schools and the stay at home quarantine executive order for the residents in Michigan. In the beginning of the COVID-19 break out most businesses where forced to close and most workers were forced to stay at home unless essential to maintaining the critical infrastructure of society. Some offices and workers in healthcare and public health were on the list of those essential businesses and professionals allowed to stay open and operate since the beginning of the pandemic. Since Doctors of Chiropractic are primary care physicians they are an essential service that was allowed to remain open during the entirety of the COVID-19 pandemic. Strictly adhering to the CDC guidelines for healthcare professionals and health care offices during the COVID-19 pandemic, Macomb Township Chiropractic, in Macomb County Michigan, was one of those professional offices that remained open since the very beginning of the stay at home executive order by the governor. "Chiropractic offices were one of those professions that was allowed to remain operating since doctors of chiropractic are physicians and considered essential to the infrastructure," said Dr. Chris McNeil of Macomb Township Chiropractic. Those business that were deemed essential to the infrastructure were made to follow strict guidelines put forth by the health department and the Centers for Disease Control to assure the health and safety of the people in the community. Some of the CDC guidelines that were implemented as a part of the daily routine at Macomb Twp Chiropractic included: social distancing, mandatory wearing of masks for all patients and employees, increased sanitation protocols and COVID-19 Corona Virus symptoms screenings for all patients at each visit. Chiropractic care can be a crucial part of keeping other critical infrastructure workers healthy and able to continue to do their jobs. Because of the executive stay at home order many of the critical critical infrastructure workers have had to work many more days and hours to help those infected by the COVID-19 Corona Virus. This extra workcan lead to many health issues that chiropractors help with including: neck pain, back pain, disc bulges, headaches, hip pain, numbness as well as other health conditions. Dr. Chris McNeil, Chiropractor and clinic director at Macomb Township chiropractic, said "We treat a lot of essential workers like doctors, nurses, grocery store workers, police, fireman, road workers and other first responders. Without the essential care we provided chiropractors many of our other workers and professionals essential to operating the critical infrastructure of our society may not be able to do their jobs.

However, when it comes to health, there is no limit as to what can be achieved to further expand the understanding of health care.

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.

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.

Macomb Twp. Chiropractic Chiropractors Reveal Causes and Treatments for 3 Common Headache Types A large number of people suffer with headaches every day, but all headaches are not same. No matter what the type of headache they most always affect the headache sufferer’s life in a negative way. Knowing the kind of headache one has can ensure proper diagnosis and treatment because the differences between headaches can be very distinct, but sometimes this difference is very subtle. “There are many types and causes of headaches and main way to differentiate between headaches is to know the different symptoms associated with each kind of headache”, says Dr. Chris McNeil Macomb Twp. Chiropractic Clinic Director. A tension headache is characterized by tightness on both sides of head and sometimes accompanied by the tightness in neck. It can last from 30 minutes to several days. Tension headaches can affect people of all ages Two main causes of tension headaches can be from a major trauma, like a sports injury or car accident, or from a minor trauma like a repetitive job or poor posture. Major or minor trauma can put significant tension on the nerves, muscles and joints of the neck and create the symptoms of a tension headache. Symptoms of a tension headache include tightness around the head and neck with a headache that radiates like a hat band. Common treatments of tension headaches may be medication, heat therapy and chiropractic treatments. A very large number of people get affected by migraine headaches every year, and 75% of these people are women. Migraine headaches are characterized by severe pain in head and 60% of the sufferers feel pain in one side of the head. Migraines are most prevalent between the age group of 45-64 years and tend to run in families. “Migraine headaches can also be caused by nerve, muscle and joint tension, but other factors like hormones, diet and genetics can play a part” said Dr. Chris McNeil Chiropractor Macomb MI. Symptoms of a migraine headache may include nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound. Treatments for a migraine headache may include strong prescription medication that often has side effects, sleeping, chiropractic treatments or dietary changes. Cluster headaches are usually located in the eye region. The reason why these kinds of headaches are called Cluster headaches is that they occur three to four times a day in a short duration of time. This is an excruciating type of headache typically experienced by men between the ages of twenty to fifty years. Cluster headaches can be caused by chemical stress from medication, msg or, artificial sweetener. “Cluster Headaches can also be caused by mechanical spinal cord tension, depression or anxiety,” says Dr. Frank Norton. Symptoms of a cluster headache can include sharp stabbing pain around the eye, nasal congestion and eye redness and irritation. Remedies for cluster headaches may include dietary changes, breathing exercises, medication and chiropractic care. No matter what type of headache one may suffer from they almost always have a negative effect on one’s life.

Macomb Twp. Chiropractic Clinic and Back Pain & Sciatica Relief Disc Decompression Therapy Treatment Office
If you suffer from back pain and you live in or near Macomb Township Michigan, Macomb Twp. Chiropractic is a Chiropractic Clinic and Disc Decompression Therapy Center that can help you get out of pain and heal quicker. Macomb Township Chiropractic prides itself on being one of the most advanced chiropractic rehab centers in Macomb County and in Michigan. Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractor Chris McNeil was the first chiropractor in Michigan to certify in Chiropractic Bio-Physics, which is the most researched and published of any of the hundreds of chiropractic techniques in the chiropractic profession. This advanced technique is somewhat of a mix of physical therapy and chiropractic care. Nick named Chiropractic rehab; CBP (or Clinical Bio-mechanics of Posture) uses specific spinal and postural x-ray analysis, postural analysis, postural adjustments and postural traction to remodel the spine and posture closer to a normal and healthy position. Macomb Township Chiropractor Dr. Franklin Norton gravitated towards this rehabilitative technique because it was a way he could help prevent his younger brother from having scoliosis surgery, as did his sister. When the spine and posture become misaligned from the normal healthy position, weather from a major trauma (such as a car accident) or a minor repetitive trauma (such as working on an assembly line) the pressure and stress builds up on the muscles, joints, discs and nerves and can leaded to pain and other spinal injuries. This nerve, joint or disc pressure can be minimized or eliminated through the rehabilitative techniques at Macomb Twp. Chiropractic, thus relieving and correcting the cause of the pain. In addition to performing CBP spinal rehab in the clinic, Macomb Twp Chiropractic offers non-surgical disc decompression therapy. In fact, it’s one of the first clinics in Michigan who perform disc therapy and CBP together. These are two of the most innovated and advanced chiropractic methods to help people with not only back pain nut many other spinal related problems too. Disc therapy is non-invasive procedures by which a special treatment table that’s connected to a computer allows the doctors to gently separate the bones in the spine and allows a suction within the bulging, herniated or degenerated discs. This suction allows the damaged disc material to be pulled back into the disc and off of the spinal cord and spinal nerves. Disc Decompression therapy is a very effective treatment for those people who suffer with back pain, sciatic, neck pain, arm pain and numbness related to bulging, herniated or degenerated discs. The combination of these two advanced and innovative rehabilitative treatments greatly speeds up the doctors ability at Macomb Twp. Chiropractic to not only get a person out of pain, but to help avoid injections, surgery and the back pain from returning.

Macomb Township Chiropractic Offers Massage Therapy for Neck & Back Pain Relief Massage Therapy at Macomb Township Chiropractic can not only help to relieve stress on the body and the mind, but it can also help improve chiropractic care and treatment outcomes. When a person has neck or back pain, there are usually muscle spasms as well. This is typically because of disc or joint pressure causing irritation to the nerves that go to those tight muscles. Massage therapy can help to reduce muscle tension and spams which can impede a person’s ability to achieve optimum disc healing as well as spine and posture correction,” said Macomb Township Chiropractor Chris McNeil. The chiropractor’s job is to reduce the pressure on the nerves going to the muscle that is in spasm, by using chiropractic treatments and other therapies to restore the spine and posture to a more normal and healthy position, and reduce the pressure from the joints and discs. At times the chiropractor may utilize other therapies to assist in restoring the normal spinal and postural position. Massage is one of the therapies that the chiropractor often uses in conjunction with chiropractic treatments. Massage therapy can help to relieve muscle spasms, or trigger points, caused by nerve pressure so the body is looser and more flexible. This will ultimately allow the chiropractic treatments to be more effective and long lasting. Macomb Township Chiropractic Chiropractors Chris McNeil and Franklin Norton specialize in two advanced and specialized techniques that greatly increase chances of neck pain, back pain and disc pain suffers to fully cover, and now they have added massage therapy to their arsenal of therapeutic procedures. One of the specialized chiropractic rehab techniques the Macomb Township Chiropractors perform is call Clinical Biomechanics of Posture. This method of care mixes traditional chiropractic techniques with physical therapy and specific postural rehab to re-train the spine and posture closure to a normal and healthier position. Another therapy performed in the clinic to assist in the healing of bulging, herniated or degenerated discs and is called non-surgical disc decompression therapy. This gentle procedure uses specialized equipment to separate the bones of the spine to create a negative pressure or suction within the damaged disc. This suction can reverse the damaging effects of disc bulges or herniation by pulling the disc material back into its proper potion and off the spinal cord and nerves. It also helps to revive degenerated discs and increases the disc space to release nerve pressure. Along with massage therapy the doctors may use heat, stretching, ultrasound or vibration therapy to reduce muscle spasms for a more effective treatment. If you are a resident of Macomb Township or Macomb County, and you are suffering with back pain, sciatica, neck pain, headaches, auto accident injuries, disc bulge or disc herniation, Macomb Township Chiropractic may be able to help you get you out of pain and back to your life.

Ferndale and Macomb Township Chiropractors Chris McNeil, Frank Norton and Peter Anderson Diagnose and Treat Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Auto Accident Patients
Ferndale and Macomb Township Chiropractors Chris McNeil, Frank Norton and Peter Anderson Diagnose and Treat Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Auto Accident Patients When people are involved in an auto accident there are a lot of different injuries that can happen. The most common injuries that are treated at Metro Detroit Chiropractors auto injury clinics in Macomb Twp and Ferndale MI are: neck pain, back pain, disc injuries, sciatica, headaches and numbness. However, there is a common injury that is often undetected and undiagnosed for many injured in an accident, and it can have devastating effects on a person’s life. This injury is called traumatic brain injury or TBI. During an auto accident there can be a rapid acceleration and deceleration. A rapid acceleration can occur when you are sitting at a red light or stop sign and you suddenly get rear ended. This causes your body to rapidly accelerate in milliseconds. A rapid deceleration happens when you are driving and suddenly the traffic in front of you stops and you come to a crashing halt. During a rapid acceleration or deceleration the forces on a body are extreme. “Not only can these forces cause ligament sprains, muscle strains, disc bulges and herniations, but they can also cause damage to one’s delicate brain tissues,” said Dr. Frank Norton at Macomb Twp Chiropractic. As the body and head whip around during the impact the brain bounces around inside of the skull. The delicate brain tissue is easily damaged which can cause a multitude of symptoms. Some of the common symptoms associated with a traumatic brain injury are: memory loss, headaches, dizziness, balance problems, vision disturbances, speech problems, ringing in the ears, sleep disturbances, problems focusing or concentrating, anger, anxiety and depression. “After an initial diagnosis of TBI our doctors can refer the patient to a specialist for further diagnostic testing and treatment” says Chris McNeil, Chiropractor and Macomb Twp and Ferndale Chiropractic clinic director. A neurologist can perform an EEG or order an MRI to determine if a brain injury occurred. The neurologist may also prescribe medications to help relieve some of the symptoms the patient may be experiencing. A neuro-psychologist can perform a cognitive assessment to find deficits in brain and cognitive function. Physical or Occupational therapy can be prescribed to perform cognitive, speech and balance therapy. Neuro Quant MRI performs volumetric analysis and can be ordered to determine if any brain atrophy has occurred over time as a result of the TBI. Lastly, chiropractic treatments can help reduce headaches and other symptoms. “Patients suffering from a TBI can have different levels of severity, from simple forgetfulness to stabbing headaches and disorientation” said Dr. Peter Anderson of Metro Detroit Chiropractors in Ferndale MI. From lost sleep to inability to work and care for themselves or their family members, the many symptoms associated with TBI take a hearty toll on ones life. Often time’s people with traumatic brain injury are need of a medical case manager to assist the patient in scheduling transportation and doctor’s appointments. The case manager can also gather records from different doctors and provide them to the insurance adjuster or to the patients attorney. In severe cases of TBI the patient may even need to live and an assisted living facility staffed with nurses and occupational therapist to assist with rehabilitation and the activities of daily living. Traumatic brain injury is very common and should be taken very seriously. Unfortunately, going to the wrong doctors can cause a missed diagnosis which could lead to a permanent brain injury. Contact the nearest www.MetroDetroitChiropractors.com clinic to schedule an appointment if you believe you or a family member has a TBI that is not getting the proper testing and care.

Macomb Twp. & Ferndale Doctors Offer Disc Decompression Therapy as Alternative to Neck and Back Surgery
Neck or back pain caused by a bulging, herniated or degenerated discs can be a life changing and debilitating condition that often leads harmful medication, injections or spine surgery. Thankfully, the chiropractors at Metro Detroit Disc Decompression Therapy Clinics offer a non-invasive, non-surgical alternative that may be able to help disc pain sufferers get out of pain, avoid surgery and get their life back. The spinal discs are located in between each on the spinal bones (spinal vertebrae) in the neck, mid-back and low back. The most common types of disc injuries are a bulge, herniation or disc degeneration (spinal arthritis). “Disc injuries usually occur because of a major trauma such as an auto to accident, fall or sports injury, or a minor trauma caused by repetitive actions over a long period of time.” says Dr. Frank Norton of Macomb Township Chiropractic. Common symptoms associated with a disc injury are back pain, leg pain, sciatica, neck pain, arm pain and numbness or weakness in the hands or feet. The pain can be dull and achy or can become severe causing stabbing and shooting pain. Many people suffering with a pinched nerve caused by a disc bulge or herniation often complain of an electrical shock type of pain into their arms or legs. “The pain can become so debilitating that people suffering with disc injuries may have trouble sleep, bathing & showering or even getting dressed. Some people also are disabled from work or can no longer do house & yard work, enjoy time with family or recreation,” said Dr. Chris McNeil, Macomb Twp. Chiropractic Clinic Director. Disc injuries are typically diagnosed through orthopedic testing, MRI or x-ray films. When a disc injury is detected by a medical doctor they often prescribe pain medication or anti-inflammatory drugs. “Medication cannot fix a disc injury but simply covers up the symptoms associated with the disc injury or decrease the inflammation caused by the disc pressure,” said Doctor Peter Andersen of Metro Detroit Chiropractors in Ferndale MI. If the pain persists the doctor may then prescribe chiropractic, physical or massage therapy, which can help decrease the pain and increase strength, but these types of physical treatments often do not fix the disc injury. The next step before disc surgery is usually epidural injections. Once again, this is only a temporary patch to the problem and many people have to have disc surgery. Disc decompression therapy is a type of traction that uses sophisticated software to gently separates the bones of the spine pulling the disc material back into its proper place. Its non-drug and non-surgical and it has no side effects un-like drugs and surgery. In fact, many people who have neck or back surgery have to have another surgery or their pain just comes back. The doctors at Metro Detroit Decompression Therapy Clinics have great success with helping injured discs to heal which may prevent neck or back surgery. Visit www.MetroDetroitDecompression.com and call the nearest disc decompression therapy clinic in Macomb Township or Ferndale Michigan, and one the spinal disc decompression therapy doctor’s therapy can help to determine if this treatment can help you to get out of disc pain, avoid surgery and get your life back.

Metro Detroit Auto Accident Doctor Uses Dynamic MRI Technique to Detect Hidden Disc Herniation’s Auto accident injuries can cause a host of health issues. The most commonly treated injuries following an auto accident are called soft tissue injuries. A Soft tissue injury is damage to the muscles, ligaments, tendons or spinal discs throughout the body. Although soft tissues injuries to the muscles, ligaments and tendons in the neck and back can be painful, disc injuries caused by an auto accident can lead to lifelong pain and permanent impairment. Ferndale and Macomb Township Chiropractor Dr. Chris McNeil says “Disc injuries can impair you to the point where you can no longer work, perform house and yard work and enjoy recreational activities. That’s why it’s imperative to get the proper diagnosis and treatment immediately following an auto accident.” For this reason the doctors at Metro Detroit Chiropractors Auto Injury Clinics use state of the art MRI techniques to help to identify and diagnose hidden disc injuries. One such technique is called Dynamic Cervical MRI. This is a simple yet grossly underutilized diagnostic technique in which the cervical spinal MRI (neck MRI) is performed in not only the neutral supine laying position, but an MRI is also taken with the patients head and cervical spine stressed in the flexed position and also stressed in the extended position. This is also called “STRESS” MRI. “When you are laying on your back getting an MRI done, you do not have the normal stresses and weight placed on your body compared to if you were standing, moving and dynamic. Sometimes a disc injury won’t even show up on an MRI if you are just lying flat and still. However, if you are putting the normal stresses on the body, like when you are standing and bending, you may see a disc injury. That can make the difference between a patient getting the care they need and benefits they are entitled to or not,” says Wayne and Macomb County MI Chiropractor Chris McNeil. Dr. McNeil has even performed a case study with a local MRI facility on one of his auto accident patients who came to his office with MRI results from a doctor and MRI facility that did not have dynamic MRI’s done. “After examining the patient it was clear to me that she definitely had significant disc injuries. However, the MRI she brought in showed no disc pathologies. So I ordered Dynamic Flexion and Extension MRI’s at one of the MRI facilities we send to. Sure enough the results showed disc herniation’s. We now were able to get her the proper treatment for her neck & arm pain with hand numbness. Plus her lawyer had some fire power to fight her auto insurance company, which cut her off because their IME doctor said she had nothing wrong with her. Thanks to this simple test the patient was able to get the care she needed to recover and her lawyer had the information needed to win a big settlement.” Contact: Dr. Chris McNeil

Thanksgiving Food Drive promotion In our clinics, we love to give back to the community. That’s why, starting in November, Chris McNeil, Macomb Township Chiropractic and Metro Detroit Chiropractors’ Clinic Director, will spearhead a special promotion that is called the Thanksgiving Food Drive. With this Thanksgiving Food Drive promotion, we are going to try to help as many people in the communities we can with neck pain, back pain, headaches and arthritis pain. With a non-perishable donation of at least 5 canned or boxed food items, you can receive a consultation with the doctor, a detailed examination, a massage, bed treatment and some therapy.
When we have a promotion like the Thanksgiving Day Food Drive promotion, we typically start to spread the word to our current patients in the office and hand out flyers. We'll have the office plastered in flyers about the promotion and decorated for fall. We put out a press release by Chiropractor Chris McNeil to try to stir up a buzz for this promotion. There will also be a Chiropractic podcast by Dr. Chris McNeil for Macomb County MI residents. The more people we can get in the office who are suffering with neck pain, back pain, headaches, or arthritis pain, who receive the free consultation exam, massage, bed treatment and therapy, the more we can give back to those who are less fortunate and in need in our community, since the food donations are going to be given to a local food bank.
If you have a friend or family member suffering with neck pain, back pain, headaches or disc injuries, you can go to www.MetroDetroitChiropractors.com to find the nearest office to call and book the appointment. |

Hi, this is Dr. Chris McNeil Chiropractic Clinic Director from Metro Detroit Chiropractors. We have three locations – Macomb Township Chiropractic, Ferndale Chiropractors and East Detroit Auto Injury Clinic. Today in this podcast I would like to talk about a new technology that can help many people with the relief if neck pain, back pain, headaches, disc injuries, auto accident injuries and many other injuries. This new technology is called the therapeutic laser. The therapeutic loser has been around for some years but is much more widely used and utilized in therapeutic settings today. The therapeutic laser uses different wave lengths and frequencies of laser light to stimulate the body's tissues and healing response. In essence, the therapeutic laser will help to speed up the healing process of the body. Now how does the therapeutic laser help to speed up the healing process of the body? The therapeutic laser uses the natural powers of the body, enhancing cellular metabolism, increasing oxygen absorption, increasing waste elimination of your cells. So wherever the laser is shined on and used it will help to increase the healing speed of that tissue.
Now there are essentially two different types of lasers that we use in a clinical setting to assist the body in the healing process. The first kind of therapeutic laser is called the cold laser. The cold laser can be different wavelengths but essentially the cold laser is 500 miliwatts or less in power. Typically in the office we use a 800 nano meter down to 600 nano meter range therapeutic laser and this laser that is under 500 miliwatts it's called the cold laser. It works phenomenally to help flush out inflammation in injured tissues, to help decrease pain, to help increase strength and it is a part of our treatment program in many instances.
Now another type of laser we use in the office is called the hot laser. This laser is called the hot laser because it is powered at 500 milliwatts or above, excuse me I should say above 500 milliwatts. So a milliwatt is a half of a watt, 1000 milliwatts is one watt. So any therapeutic laser that is over half a watt, that's considered a hot laser. And why is it called a hot laser? Well if you hold it in one place on the skin it can heat up and really be uncomfortable. So with the hot laser we have to continuously move the laser over the tissue that is injured. But for the cold laser we can set it on that area and let it sit there and absorb that laser light.
Here is a great analogy of how the therapeutic laser works. Just as our body absorbs the ultra violet light that is given by the sun and creates vitamin D, uses that light to create a beneficial outcome in our body, the therapeutic laser does the same thing. So how do we use the therapeutic laser in the clinical setting? Well for people who are suffering with neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, elbow pain, wrist pain, hip pain, leg pain, knee pain, ankle pain. Pretty much where ever there is a joint, we can shine the laser in the painful, damaged area and that will begin, increase the healing speed of those tissues.
I have a great testimonial for the laser myself. A couple years ado I was mountain biking and I flipped over the handlebars and I had my arm outstretched and I actually broke my wrist right next to the thumb, so I broke my arm next to the thumb and I started using the therapeutic laser daily, several times a day. Now how do I know my wrist was fractured? Well I actually had it x-rayed and a CT scan that confirmed that I did have a fracture. So after frequent use of the laser the healing speed was so rapid that after only three weeks I was back to riding my mountain bike again. So that is just a great testimonial.
What else can we use the laser for? We have patients that suffer with facial pain, tick de la rue or trigeminal neuralgia that can really help with nerve problems. People who have numbness and tinglings and burning sensations any where in the body. We can also use it in areas where there needs to be extra healing don, burns and abrasions. Well we don't use that in the office for burns and abrasions. Originally that's what they were using that type of therapy for to increase wound healing. One of the really great uses for therapeutic laser that we use in the office is in conjunction with our disc decompression therapy. So many times we have patients that come into the office suffering with disc injuries such as disc bulge, disc herniation or degenerative disc disease which is arthritic discs and we have a special treatment which is called disc decompression therapy which gently separates the bone in the spine creating a negative suction to help increase nutrient absorption and actually pull the disc matter back into place which is bulging or herniated. So when we use this therapy in conjunction with the therapeutic laser it significantly increases the speed of recovery. So people who have excruciating back pain or neck pain, the disc can cause sciatic pain. The disc can cause weakness in the legs or feet, or weakness in the arms or hands. Disc injuries can cause numbness, tingling or burning in the arms, legs, hands or feet. So that's a great modality to assist or physical medicine in the office to help increase the healing speed of the body.
Now before we ever use the therapeutic laser on any patient we always do a detailed consultation with the patient discussing their health matters, how they were injured, how long it's been there. Typically we see two ways that a patient's been injured. Either through a major trauma like an accident, a fall, sports injury, trip and fall, things like that, or it's a minor trauma and it's a repetitive injury over time, like working on the line repetitively, working at the desk, always looking one way or twisting one way all the time or always looking down at your computer, or always looking down at your phone or your books at school.
So that's a minor trauma, or a micro trauma a repetitive trauma and that can wear on the body and end up causing neck pain, back pain, disc injuries and all kinds of other problems. So once we do the consultation and we determine how long the condition has been there, then we'll do9 our examination, we'll do orthopedic tests, neurological tests, we'll do range of motion studies, we'll take an iPad posture picture and then determine what condition the posture is in. Because if that posture is out of alignment that can cause excess nerve tension and disc pressure and joint pressure and that can cause pain. A lot of time we'll get x-rays and that will determine if there is any mis-alignments in the spine which could also tell us if there is any nerve tension, disc pressure or joint pressure. And when we do do the disc decompression therapy during the consultation, if we are doing a consultation for disc therapy we definitely want the prospective patient to bring in their MRI or CT results whether it's the MRI report or the disk, we can look at that and then that will help us determine how severe the problem is and how long it could take to fix. Obviously, the longer something has been there the worst it is, the longer it's going to take to fix, but the good news is that we do have new, advanced treatments like the therapeutic laser to speed up the healing process and help get people back to sleeping through the night; help get people back to being able to bathe and shower and getting dressed without pain, and getting back to doing house and yard work without pain and actually back to work without pain, or the recreational activities and sports and things that they like to do for fun, and of course time with the family and friends; getting back to those things.
So today's podcast, Dr. Chris McNeil, Chiropractor, Chiropractic Director for Metro Detroit Chiropractors.com. Come to the website and call the nearest office and schedule your free consultation and we'll help you determine if the therapeutic laser is the treatment of choice for you. I hope you enjoyed this podcast. Be well. |

Chiropractor Chris McNeil Talks Chiropractic Remedies for Migraines in Latest Podcast
More than 28 million people suffer from migraines in the United States each year. That means that at least one person in every family will suffer from migraines in their lifetime. Finding relief from the debilitating suffering that goes hand in hand with migraines can literally mean the difference between life and a living death. Chris McNeil of Macomb Township Chiropractic, Ferndale Chiropractor and East Detroit Accident Injury Clinic recently addressed this topic in his recent podcast where he describes the ways of diagnosing issues that can lead to migraine pain and various treatment modalities that have been effective in the treatment of patients who visit the practice in search of help. “I wanted to do a podcast on migraines since it was something so many of my patients had come to me with,” says Chiropractor Chris McNeil. “It's incredibly heart-breaking to hear people talk about days spent in their rooms with the windows drawn, their eyes covered, and no sound at all—just bare isolation and pain. I wanted with my podcast to explain that there are treatments that work for a lot of people that don't include the types of tolerance-inducing drugs that so many people around here in Detroit are being given. I encourage anyone who is experiencing migraine pain, from adults to children, to at least give chiropractic remedies a try.”
The Metro Detroit Chiropractors starts with a complete consultation examination, involving X-rays and a posture picture, and then analyzes the information for any type of therapy that can give patients some relief right away. That could include heat packs on the neck, inter-segmental traction and massage to help open up the joints and relieve muscle spasms, or instrument adjusting which stimulates the nerves that helps the muscles relax. Ice is also used to help reduce the muscle spasms and decrease the inflammation that could be in the neck related to the misalignments, nerve tension, joint pressure and disc pressure. The approach is about testing the patient's response and then adjusting until they find what works.

Chiropractor Chris McNeil Discusses Disc Treatment and Therapies in Latest Podcast Lower back pain is an incredibly common ailment today and one which drives people to chiropractors for help in treating. There are multiple reasons for lower back pain, such as: sprains, Spondylolisthesis, injury, skeletal irregularity, herniated discs, and sciatica. This is by no means a comprehensive list. Spinal issues can stem from a wide range of causes and conditions, including tumors, which is why it is so important to seek diagnosis from a medical professional rather than allowing self-medication or self-treatment to go on indefinitely. This is the topic of the latest of Dr. Chris McNeil's Chiropractic podcasts, one where he explains the causes of back pain and addresses some of the disc treatment options available for those who have these symptoms.
“Discs are a shock absorber,” says McNeil. “They play a vital role in how the body functions. Having a nice plump disc is essential to a healthy body and nervous system. When people experience disc issues it can disrupt their whole life. I wanted to get this information out so that people understand that even if they've tried more conventional therapies we have had a great deal of breakthrough in our treatment practice. Chiropractic medicine has really grown even in the time that I have been practicing. We are always finding new ways of addressing pain and issues in our patients and sharing these modalities with each other to create a web of information that can be applied to instances in our own practice. This latest podcast was informative about what causes disc issues and some of the approaches that I use in my own Detroit chiropractic clinic to deal with those.”
Dr. Chris McNeil Macomb Township Chiropractic Clinic Director explains in the podcast that the typical physician approach to back injury is to mask the symptoms with pain pills, which does little but prevent people from seeing how bad the condition is deteriorating. The approach used by chiropractors at the Metro Detroit Chiropractors Clinics is to perform non-surgical disc decompression therapy. They use a special table that gently tractions the bones in the spine that causes a negative vacuum or a negative suction that over time pulls that disc material that disc matter back in and pull more nutrients into the disc and help the disc heal. Other treatments include: cold laser, hot laser, ultrasound, micro stimulation, modified vibration therapy, heat and ice massage, and chiropractic adjustments. Research has shown that 85% of the patients who use this therapy have what they listed as “favorable results.”

The spine has bone, muscle, nerve, and ligament that maybe injured in an accident or trauma. When ligaments are damaged the condition is usually permanent and progressive either now or both now and in the future. This can cause a lot of pain, both acute and chronic as well as other neurological consequences. The spinal sprain is the most commonly diagnosed spinal injury and sprains can be mild with no clinically detectable increase in joint laxity, to severe where a complete ligament disruption can result in significant joint laxity. When a ligament that holds the spine together is damaged it can be accurately and reliably measured using computer assistance. Computerized radiographic mensuration analysis (CRMA) is one test Dr. McNeil and the treating physicians of Metro Detroit Chiropractors use to objectively quantify the severity and precise location of spinal ligament injuries caused by a major trauma such as an auto accident. Dr. Chris McNeil explains, “It’s important to test for spinal ligament injures. CRMA helps us determine the location and the severity of any spinal ligamentous laxity and instability. The information we get from this testing can help to develop or modify both the patient’s treatment plan as well as any other diagnostic testing referrals that may be needed.” A common auto injury the Metro Detroit Chiropractors physicians are looking to rule out with CRMA is called Alteration Of Motion Segment Integrity (AOMSI). Loss of Motion Segment Integrity occurs when they have measured ligament laxity, instability or sub-failure to an injured spine that meets the AMA Impairment Guides Measured Criteria. . “This injury is perhaps the most common cause of impairments and disabilities related to spinal injuries” said Dr. McNeil. Computerized analysis of flexion/extension X-rays by a board certified medical radiologist can help determine the severity and location of a patient’s damaged and injured ligaments. With CRMA the measurements are precise and follow peer reviewed care standards published in the Journal of the American Medical Association and are adopted by the International Chiropractic Association. By documenting a patient’s auto accident injuries it can help the patient to access any benefits that they may be entitled to from the auto insurance carrier. On page 18 of AMA Guides To Impairment Ratings 5th Edition is states “Thorough documentation of medical findings and their impact will also ensure that reporting is fair and consistent and that individuals have the information needed to pursue any benefits to which they are entitled.” CRMA is one of the ways doctors can objectively support their patient’s auto accident injury claims. “Most doctors are very good at assessing damage to the bone, muscle and nerve, but virtually have no diagnostic work up for the spinal ligaments” says Dr. McNeil. Since ligament injuries are usually permanent, CRMA test results helps doctors to better manage their patients and make life or work modification guidance on what they should or should not do. Test Results can also help to establish permanent impairments, disabilities and objectively support a prognosis for future care.
