Headaches and Migraines
Regularly occurring headaches or migraines can have far-reaching effects on a person suffering from these conditions, ranging from annoying and bothersome to mentally and physically disabling. Migraine headaches in particular could potentially last for weeks—or even indefinitely—making a normal life nearly impossible during an attack.
Chiropractic care offered by Tri-State Clinic North can help reduce headache pain and other symptoms, especially if musculoskeletal issues are a contributing factor in headache occurrences. Through stretching or massaging techniques to help release and relax tightened facial or neck muscles relax, as well as traditional spinal adjustment therapy, chiropractic patients may find relief from their headache pain.

Neck Pain
Neck pain can occur from a number of causes, including car accidents, accidental falls, or certain medical conditions. But it can also result from the activities of daily life: poor posture or sleep positions, standing or sitting too much, or repetitive usage of phones or other technology.
Tri-State Chiropractic care addresses the underlying causes of neck pain by adjusting the upper vertebrae in the spine. These adjustments help relieve tension and relax muscles in the neck to bring positive relief for your pain.
Common Symptoms of Neck Pain:
• Sharp pain during movement

• Lack of mobility
Shoulder
A painful shoulder can make even routine activities difficult. And it’s not just the shoulder itself—pain may also radiate down the arm, causing extreme discomfort and interference with work or exercise.
Shoulder problems can arise from injuries incurred in accidents, sports, or repetitive motions. You can also encounter shoulder pain due to bone spurs, arthritis, or misalignments of the spine.
Tri-State Chiropractic care can address many of these problems associated with the shoulder. A chiropractic adjustment can help realign vertebrae that impinge on nerves, and bring relaxation to muscles.

Back Pain
Nearly a third of adults suffer from some form of back pain, especially in the lower lumbar region. It’s a leading cause of work loss, with medical treatment costs exceeding $100 billion each year.

Although some forms of back injury may require other medical specialties, many patients with back pain are able to find real relief thanks to Tri-State Chiropractic care, particularly through spinal adjustments. Moreover, they can gain this relief without expensive drugs or surgery.

Elbow, Wrist, & Hand
The joints in the lower arm help you communicate with the rest of the world. Whether you’re writing, performing intricate work, painting, or simply gesturing while you speak, your elbows, wrists, and hands make it possible for you to better express yourself.
But these particular joints aren’t immune from pain and dysfunction. Injuries, repetitive stress movements, or diseases like arthritis create nerve damage that causes chronic pain and inflammation.
Fortunately, chiropractic care from Tri-State can restore mobility to these delicate and complex joints, and provide natural pain relief without drugs or surgery.
Common Symptoms of Elbow, Wrist, & Hand Issues:
• Pain during movement
• Inflammation
• Lack of mobility
• Arthritic hands
Hip, Knee, & Ankle
Without the joints in the lower body working in concert, you couldn’t walk, run, dance, or even remove groceries from your car. So, when a joint in your hips, knees, or ankles fails, it can turn your life upside down.
Millions of people undergo expensive hip or knee replacement surgery each year. If the damage is extensive enough, this is often the best option. But before your condition reaches that point, consider chiropractic care from Tri-State.
Whether your pain and lack of mobility is the result of aging, disease, or injury, chiropractic treatment may be able to relieve your symptoms. And regular care could bring lasting relief and postpone the need for replacement surgery for many years.

Bulging or Herniated Discs
The spine is an amazing structure that provides stability, while also allowing flexibility for movement. This is because the individual bones of the spine—the vertebrae—are aligned vertically with a disc of soft tissue positioned between each one to provide cushioning during movement.
But pain and difficulty moving can occur if something go awry with one or more of these discs. One such problem is when the disc becomes flattened, causing its outer edge to bulge outward from the vertebrae. It’s often caused by the effects of aging, poor posture, or repetitive movements related to certain occupations or activities. People with a bulging disc may experience localized pain, muscle spasms, or a stiff back, especially if the disc continues to deteriorate.
Chiropractic care provided by Tri-State can play an important role in the overall treatment of bulging or herniated discs. By restoring proper spinal alignment and improving overall performance, a chiropractic adjustment may also reduce pressure on damaged discs. Other techniques can further improve symptoms, especially for herniated discs.
Common Symptoms of Failed Discs
• Severe back pain
• Radiating pain, weakness, or numbness
• Muscle spasms
• Stiffness
• Restricted mobility
