| Dr. Catherine Kowalski has been practicing chiropractic treatment for 28 years and specializes in relieving neck and back pain, sciatica, headaches, pinched nerves and arthritis pain. Chiropractic Care is a natural, effective way to decrease back and neck pain, swelling and stiffness and increase flexibility and mobility without medication. Increased pain free movement is one of the main benefits of conservative chiropractic care - with my training, in most instances, I can pinpoint the exact location of what is causing your pain, stiffness, numbness or weakness. How might you benefit from my gentle pain-relieving methods? Benefit #1: As a natural, effective way to decrease pain, swelling and stiffness and increasing flexibility and mobility without aspirin and other pills and drugs. Benefit #2: As an effective means of improving circulation, replacing fatigue with renewed energy, relieving stress and tension. Benefit #3: Relieving neck and back pain from postural stress and heavy lifting. Office and construction workers, as well as those whom frequently exercise, find that occasional Chiropractic care even improves their work and play performance, thanks to more relaxed and pain free movement. In addition to Chiropractic manipulation, the office offers the following adjunctive therapies on-site; ultrasound, electric muscle stimulation, cold laser, lumbar and cervical traction, heat/ice therapy, and rehab exercises. Nutrition Counseling Most chronic diseases that Americans suffer from are directly related to the food that they eat. Most common diseases include heart disease, diabetes, cancer, arthritis, high cholesterol and blood pressure. Services offered include; Individual nutritional counseling, Analyzing diet, supplements and lab work, Hair analysis for toxic metals and nutritional deficiencies, Rotation/elimination diets for allergies, approved medical foods weight loss diet. Did you know? Fact #1: In 2002, the International Agency for Research on Cancer concluded that people who are overweight or obese have a higher risk of breast, colon, esophagus, kidney, and uterine cancer. Extra pounds account for an estimated 20% of all cancer deaths in the U.S. Fact #2: Each year, 700,000 Americans suffer a stroke, and 160,000 of them die. But strokes may be easier to prevent than heart attacks. That’s because 80% of the risk of stroke is due to high blood pressure. Fact #3: Experts estimate that 40% of U.S. adults age 40 to 74 have pre-diabetes. Most don’t know it. An estimated 9% of middle aged Americans and 19% of those over 60, have diabetes. From 20 – 35 % of them don’t know it. Increased pain free movement along with improved function is one of the main benefits of lumbar disc decompression for patients who have herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, or arthritic discs/joints of the lumbar spine. Did you know...A 2005 article in the prestigious orthopedic journal “Spine” studied patients who suffered with lower back pain and/or sciatica. 99% of the patients were told that they would get either a moderate or great improvement in their quality of life after the surgery. But the study found that in reality 39% did not even have minimally important improvement after surgery, not to mention the well-established scientific facts on the risks of spinal surgery. Did you know...Many patients with chronic lower back pain take Advil, Motrin or Aleve for months or even years. Common side effects include intestinal bleeding, stomach upset and kidney disease. The other problem with these drugs is they have not been shown to be effective in good clinical trials. Given the amount of their consumption in society today (truckloads), for everything from back pain, to headaches, to painful periods, we should be in pain-free nirvana by now… but we aren't! Did you know...Due to technological advancement there is a non-invasive alternative to surgery and drugs called the DRX9000™. The DRX9000™ provides accurate, gentle, and effective treatment without pain or discomfort. Did you know...One study with a decompression machine showed a marked reduction in disk herniations or protrusions in 71% of patients. Another study published in the Orthopedic Technology Review showed that about 86% of the patients using the DRX9000™ obtained substantial relief.
