Drug-free care that looks for the cause.
Chiropractic keeps your muscles, joints and nervous system working well, without drugs and without surgery.
Chiropractic rests on a simple idea: your health depends on a spine, muscles and nervous system that work well together. It is a form of health care that avoids drugs, uses non-invasive techniques and actively supports your well-being.
The whole person, not just the sore spot
When you visit, Dr. Scorca looks at your whole body and your daily life. He looks for the underlying cause of the problem and considers the habits that may be feeding it: how you sit, sleep, lift, work, exercise and eat.
Fix it, then keep it from coming back
Care goes beyond easing the symptoms. Changes to diet, posture and exercise speed up recovery and help protect you from the same problem returning. Exercise routines, nutrition advice and lifestyle changes are all part of the plan.
Pain killing drugs often delay proper treatment. See your chiropractor first.
Chiropractic isn’t only about easing discomfort. It helps your body do what it is built to do: heal, move well and stay healthy.
01Where it hurts
Where does it hurt? Follow the line.
Nerves leave the spine between the vertebrae and run out to every part of the body, like lines leaving a station. Pain in your arm, hip or head often traces back to a stop on the line. Choose a line to see the problems Dr. Scorca treats there.
Nerves from C1–C4
Head & neck line
- Headaches
- Neck pain
- Stiff neck
- Whiplash
Tight muscles and stiff joints in the upper neck are a common source of headaches, and a car accident can strain the whole neck in a split second (whiplash).
Nerves from C5–C6
Shoulders line
- Frozen shoulder
- Rotator cuff tendonitis and tears
The nerves for the shoulder leave the neck low down, so shoulder pain and neck trouble often travel together.
Nerves from C6–T1
Arms & hands line
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Tennis elbow
- Radiating arm pain
Tingling or pain running down the arm can start in the wrist, the elbow or the neck. Finding where it starts is the first job.
Nerves from T1–T12
Mid back line
- Back pain
- Spinal degeneration
- Arthritis
- Joint pain
Desk work, phones and poor posture load the middle of the back all day long. Wear and tear shows up here as stiffness and aching joints.
Nerves from L1–L5
Low back line
- Lower back pain
- Disc problems
- Sciatica
The low back carries the most weight. Poor lifting habits and repetitive motion add up here, and an irritated nerve can send pain down the leg (sciatica).
Nerves from L4–S
Hips & legs line
- Hip pain
- Pulled hamstrings
- Radiating leg pain
- Sprained ankles
- Achilles tendonitis
Hips, knees and ankles work as a chain with the pelvis and low back. Sports injuries and sprains heal better when the whole chain moves well.
If you have sudden severe pain, numbness, weakness, or trouble with your bladder or bowels, get emergency medical care first.
