Vancouver is a health-conscious, clean city where living a healthy lifestyle is easy. Many people who live in this area make an effort to improve their health by only purchasing organic produce, eating healthy meals, and exercising on a regular basis; however, they might not be aware about the many ways a chiropractor in Vancouver, WA, such as one from Forgey Chiropractic, can help them take their health and wellness to a whole new level, especially when it comes to boosting their immune systems. Spinal Misalignments Contribute to Stress on the Body The body’s immune system and nervous system are intertwined and work together to assist the body in healing properly. Whenever the spine becomes misaligned, the body is unable to adjust to any abnormal changes that arise, which leads to insufficient immune response. Whenever an individual gets a chiropractic adjustment, the immune system and nervous system are realigned and begin to function normally.

Vancouver, WA Chiropractor Tackles Shoulder Pain Causes

Posted by Gwen on Saturday, June 13, 2015 with No comments

Along with back and neck pain, shoulder pain is one of the most common conditions a Vancouver, WA chiropractor helps treat. Like other musculoskeletal problems, shoulder pain can be caused by different factors, like muscle, joint and nerve damage or disorders. Possible Causes of Shoulder Pain A common reason for shoulder pain is bursitis, or the inflammation of the bursa, the fluid-filled soft tissue that cushions the joints. Swollen tendons and rotator cuff muscles that irritate the bursa often trigger bursitis. These soft tissues may develop tears after an injury or degenerate due to age, illness, osteoarthritis and overuse. A lifetime of golfing, baseball or other sports that cause repetitive strain can also lead to soft tissue degeneration.

Carpal tunnel syndrome or CTS causes a great deal of pain. The condition is linked to a pinched nerve in the wrist from jobs that require repetitive motions, as well as trauma, disease, and pregnancy. However, CTS is more commonly associated with manual work in the manufacturing, sewing, cleaning, and similar industries. According to the American Chiropractic Association, the syndrome is the most expensive of all work-related injuries, possibly amounting to as much as $30,000 in medical bills and loss of income. If you suffer from CTS, you can benefit from a non-invasive treatment by visiting a Vancouver, WA chiropractor.

PT and Chiropractic in Managing Sports Injuries

Posted by Gwen on Monday, May 11, 2015 with No comments


Rehabilitation is a standard component of the management of sports injuries. During this period of recovery, the athlete may be required to undergo various forms of therapy. Generally, the goal is to promote the healing of damaged bones and soft tissue to restore the patient’s overall health. Physical therapy (PT) and chiropractic care can form a crucial part of an athlete’s rehabilitation and aid these goals.

Restoring Mobility

Take, for instance, an athlete who had to wear a cast for some time to immobilize a limb or else underwent surgery to replace severely crushed bones with metal implants. After the recommended time of rest, PT and chiropractic professionals will help the athlete safely and efficiently retrain the bones and muscles to move. This is done through modalities like assisted exercises and manual adjustments.
