All of our new clients at Chiropractic Works in Pittsfield undergo a complete physical examination, prior to care, to determine the exact nature of your problem. It is our belief that the results of your examination will allow us to make recommendations regarding the best type and amount of chiropractic care needed to correct the underlying cause of your problem. The success of your treatments depends on you and the doctor working together. You can't fool the body. If you don't take care of your body, it will gradually fall apart.Over the years I have observed that most people treat their bodies and their health in a reactive manner. They do nothing proactively to support and enhance their own health until something goes wrong. The dangers of this philosophy can be seen easily with regard to health issues like cancer and heart disease, but it also relates to spine problems. If a spinal problem is left untreated for a lengthy period, disc problems, arthritis and other serious health issues may arise.Chiropractic Works is a quality Pittsfield chiropractor and we would like to welcome you to our Pittsfield Chiropractic office. Our chiropractic offices are conveniently located at 197...more

Glendale Chiropractic - Back Pain Solving the PuzzleAn estimated eight out of ten people in the United States will injure their back at some point during their lives. Few of these problems will require extended treatment, but back problems are invariably painful. Managing and relieving back pain is not a simple process. The experience of pain is subjective; it cannot be measured from the outside. Health providers who treat back pain find it challenging to obtain the objective or measurable signs that verify and diagnose a patient's painful back symptoms. Additionally, everyone's experience of pain is different. Pain descriptors encompass numerous adjectives - dull, sharp, throbbing, pulsating, stabbing and shock-like, just to name a few. People experience and describe pain so differently partly due to its varied and complex origins. In fact, pain originates from numerous places in the body, such as muscles, bones, nerves, organs or blood vessels. Pain is also described as acute or chronic. The word "acute" derives from the Latin word for needles and is usually described as a severe, sharp sensation. The initial stage of an injury is called the acute phase. The word...more
