Our chiropractors are happy to help you with complaints caused by a crooked pelvis
Do you ever suffer from pain in the lower back, neck, shoulders or hips? Or do you have headaches that you can’t exactly explain? Do you feel that one leg is longer than the other? You may sometimes feel as if you are crooked. These are all possible symptoms for pelvic misalignment. In this article, you will read about what pelvic misalignment means and how our chiropractors can help you get rid of your symptoms.
The cause of pelvic misalignment
Pelvic misalignment means that one half of the pelvis is higher or lower than the other. This can have several causes. Because the pelvis is in the middle of the body, the causes can be in the lower body as well as the upper body. Often it is due to a difference in leg length. Other causes include childbirth, an accident, spinal blocks or some other form of trauma near the pelvis.
The pelvis connects the lower and upper halves of the body. Therefore, it is important to keep an eye on whether your pelvis is still functioning as it should. Because this part of the skeleton is located in the middle of the body, problems arising here can radiate to the legs, as well as to the back, shoulders, neck and head.
What are the symptoms of a crooked pelvis?
If you have pelvic misalignment, there are many different symptoms you may suffer from. These arise not directly from the pelvic misalignment, but because the body begins to compensate for the misalignment. This is done, for example, by twisting or bending the knees. Compensation can also be provided by rotation of the spine. The unnatural compensation, then causes the physical symptoms.
Because of the location of the pelvis, it affects a number of areas around it and can cause a chain reaction of symptoms.
Because the body can compensate for pelvic misalignment in many different ways, there are also a lot of different symptoms. The most common complaints are:
- Neck or headache
- Pain in the shoulder
- Pain in the back or hips
- Stiff feeling in the hips
If you have one or more of these symptoms, it is advisable to have an examination to see if you may have pelvic misalignment.
The possibilities at TOPCHIRO
The chiropractors at TOPCHIRO are highly skilled and can help you get rid of your symptoms. Not your complaint is the focus, but you are the focus. This is why we create a plan that suits you and gives you the most health benefits.
The course of chiropractic care.
In a care program for pelvic misalignment by the chiropractor, the cause of the misalignment will be examined. Why is the pelvis tilted? Once an answer to this question is found, a specific care plan can be created. A chiropractor cannot straighten the pelvis, but addresses the underlying cause. Once this problem is corrected, the symptoms will diminish.
During care, the chiropractor will use physical examination to determine several things. First, it looks at how badly the pelvis is tilted. After this, the chiropractor looks for the cause of the misalignment. Next, the effects of these factor(s) on the functioning of the body will be identified. If necessary, we use imaging techniques and scans when they can provide us with additional information.
Once it is clear exactly where the problems are, the chiropractor will use various tests to figure out which recovery method best suits your personal symptoms. These are then discussed with you. After this, the perfect method of recovery can be considered together.
