Symptoms Treated at Bomberg Chiropractic

Back Pain

At Bomberg Chiropractic, we treat a lot of patients with pain that stems from the same two regions: the lower back and neck/shoulders. Through research, we discovered many of these patients have one thing in common: a job where they sit or stand for the majority of the day.

Sitting or standing for eight hours or more at your job can not only wear on your spine and joints but also cause muscles to deteriorate or even strain or pinch nerves that may cause spasms. Along with practicing small active movements throughout the day, regular wellness care treatments with Dr. Bomberg can help relieve back pain and correct misalignments before they devolve into painful issues.

Not a corporate athlete? There are many other causes of lower back pain. Unlike many health conditions where doctors cannot trace the origin, the source of back pain is typically easy for Dr. Bomberg to identify. He has seen it all and can provide natural chiropractic treatments that work.

Neck Pain

If you’re experiencing neck pain, it may be time to seek chiropractic care. Dr. Bomberg offers safe, gentle, and effective treatment options for those who suffer from neck pain, which can be caused by a variety of factors. During your initial consultation, we will learn more about your concerns and develop a treatment plan tailored to address them.

Disc Injury/Herniated Disc

Discs provide a buffer between the vertebrae along your spine. When intense pressure is applied to the discs, they can bulge or rupture, causing stress on a nerve. By locating these problem areas, Dr. Bomberg can help your body start the healing process.

Whiplash

Chiropractic care is great when it comes to soft-tissue injuries like whiplash, which is common in auto accidents. Though the dizziness, pain, and headaches that typically come with whiplash may take time to present themselves, they need to be treated.

For whiplash patients, our treatments focus on realigning your spine and joints, as well as reducing inflammation and scar tissue—a key factor in both preventing and reducing long-term pain. Dr. Bomberg can help you increase mobility, flexibility, and strength to areas that may have been injured in your accident.

Arm and Leg Pain

Tennis elbow, knee problems, shin splints, and other types of arm or leg pain can develop from injury or overuse. Using various non-invasive chiropractic techniques, Dr. Bomberg provides targeted treatments that focus on the affected areas. A simple yet thorough examination of the soft tissue allows him to pinpoint a wide array of issues that can have a significant impact on your overall health and comfort.

Carpal Tunnel

Repetitive work, a wrist fracture, chronic diseases like diabetes, and inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis can cause painful carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome is the result of compression of the median nerve and wear and tear over time. This nerve extends from the forearm through the wrist and into the hand.

Chiropractic care and Kinesio taping can help carpal tunnel patients find relief from the pain, tingling, and numbness that distinguish the condition.

Scoliosis

Scoliosis, an abnormal curvature of the spine, develops in children and carries over into adulthood. For scoliosis patients, Dr. Bomberg creates treatment plans designed to realign the joints. Although chiropractic care cannot cure the condition, it does help relieve severe back pain caused by spine curves. Our scoliosis patients notice a significant difference in how they feel after a visit with Dr. Bomberg.

Sciatica

If you’re experiencing a sharp, shooting pain that travels down the back of your leg or a dull, persistent ache or tingling and numbness, you may be suffering from a condition known as sciatica. It happens when the sciatic nerve is irritated, entrapped, or compressed.

Up to 40 percent of the population is affected by sciatica. Fortunately, treatment can help relieve symptoms. Non-invasive chiropractic therapy is one of the most effective, yet gentlest forms of treatment for relief from sciatic pain and irritation.

Headaches/Migraines

At Bomberg Chiropractic, we see a lot of patients who are looking for relief from chronic headaches and migraines. For a large number of those patients, Dr. Bomberg can offer them nearly immediate relief – sometimes in just one or two treatment sessions!

Up to 20 percent of headaches fall in the cervicogenic headache category, with pain that usually starts in the back of the neck on one side and then spreads to the top or side of the head. With vertebrae adjustment, which allows for better blood flow to the entire head and neck, as well as instructions on stretching, posture improvement, and addressing other environmental factors like ergonomic set up at work, most of Dr. Bomberg’s headache patients see amazing results.

Shoulder Pain

Injuries and overuse are common sources of shoulder pain. It’s especially common for individuals who work physical, repetitive jobs. If left untreated, shoulder pain can progress into your back and neck, or cause secondary issues like tingling and numbness in your fingers. Chiropractic care can help you manage and relieve inflammation and pain associated with shoulder pain. Our non-invasive treatments can help you reduce discomfort and increase joint mobility, range of motion, and flexibility.

Numbness and Tingling

A number of ailments and conditions can produce numbness and tingling in the body, including sciatica, carpal tunnel, and trapped nerves. If you’re experiencing numbness and tingling sensations, Dr. Bomberg will use his hands to evaluate the texture, tightness, and movement of muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, and nerves. Abnormal tissues are treated by combining precisely directed tension with very specific movements.

Chronic Pain

Millions of Americans deal with chronic pain issues. Multiple sclerosis, migraines, neuropathy, fibromyalgia, spinal damage, and numerous other conditions can cause chronic pain, but many times people who suffer from chronic pain don’t know the source.

While it may be difficult to trace the source of your pain, Dr. Bomberg can help you find relief with alternative methods instead of medication. Chiropractic therapy, acupuncture, massage therapy, and other holistic treatments can give you achieve a better quality of life and get back to the things you enjoy most.

Vertigo

If you’re feeling dizzy or feel like the room is spinning, you may have a medical condition known as vertigo. Vertigo often results from problems with the inner ear, which helps us maintain our balance. Episodes of vertigo can be temporary or chronic and range from mild to severe. It sometimes creates additional symptoms, including nausea, vomiting, hearing loss, or ringing in the ears.

Viral infections and trauma to the head or neck are some of the most common causes of vertigo. Through chiropractic adjustments and repositioning techniques, Dr. Bomberg can aid the body in healing so you can regain your sense of balance.
