What We Treat

Dr. Kurt Worthmann is trained to provide care for a variety of conditions, focusing on the body's natural ability to heal and regulate itself. Through non-invasive and drug-free approaches, chiropractic care can help address and manage a range of conditions, including:

Headaches

Chiropractic adjustments and therapies can help alleviate headaches and migraines by relieving tension from misalignments in the neck, shoulders, and upper back, which are often associated with these types of headaches.

Disc Herniations and Nerve Compression

Dr. Kurt employs techniques to relieve pressure on spinal discs and reduce nerve compression. This can provide relief for conditions such as disc herniations, pinched nerves, and radiating pain in the arms or legs.

Sciatica

Chiropractic care can be effective in treating sciatica, a condition characterized by pain, numbness, or tingling that radiates along the sciatic nerve. By addressing spinal misalignments and reducing nerve irritation, chiropractic adjustments can help alleviate sciatic pain and improve mobility.

Asthma

While chiropractic care does not directly treat asthma, it focuses on optimizing overall nervous system function. Some individuals with asthma have reported improved respiratory function and a reduction in symptoms after chiropractic care. By supporting nervous system health, chiropractic care may have a positive impact on asthma management.

Weak Immune Systems

Chiropractic adjustments can help support the immune system by promoting proper nervous system function. A well-aligned spine allows for optimal communication between the brain and the immune system, helping to enhance the body's natural defense mechanisms.

GI Discomfort

Chiropractic care can help address certain gastrointestinal discomforts by focusing on spinal alignment and nervous system function. By relieving nerve interference and promoting proper nerve flow, chiropractic adjustments may contribute to improved digestive health and alleviate discomfort.

Scoliosis

Chiropractic care can be part of a comprehensive approach to managing scoliosis, a condition characterized by an abnormal curvature of the spine. While chiropractic care cannot correct the curvature, it can help improve spinal mobility, posture, and prevent the curvature from worsening.

 

It is important to note that the specific approach and effectiveness of chiropractic care may vary depending on individual circumstances. Dr. Kurt will assess your condition, provide a personalized treatment plan, and work in collaboration with other healthcare providers when necessary to ensure comprehensive care for your specific needs.
