Non-Surgical Care Options Available in Jacksonville, FL
· · 1 min read · Castelli Chiropractic Center
Beyond hands-on chiropractic care, several non-surgical options may be discussed after an evaluation. None of them is right for everyone, and each is considered only when examination findings support it.
Chiropractic adjustments
Adjustments remain the core of everyday care. They are applied to specific joints with the aim of improving motion and comfort, and the technique used is adapted to your history and preferences.
Shockwave therapy
Shockwave therapy uses focused acoustic energy directed at a specific area of soft tissue. It is typically discussed for stubborn, localized complaints that have not responded to more basic measures. Candidacy depends on your history and examination, and the office reviews suitability before recommending it.
Spinal decompression
Spinal decompression is a non-surgical, table-based approach applied to the spine. It is considered for particular presentations rather than offered routinely, and suitability is determined during an evaluation.
Supporting care
Therapeutic exercise, massage therapy, electrical muscle stimulation, and kinesio taping may be used alongside other care to support comfort, strength, and movement quality.
- Therapeutic exercise for strength and control
- Massage therapy for muscle tension and comfort
- Electrical muscle stimulation as an adjunct to other care
- Kinesio taping for support during activity
