Lamp Chiropractic: Treating the Whole Body for Optimal Health
At Lamp Chiropractic, we take a comprehensive approach to chiropractic treatment. We don't just focus on the typical back, neck, and middle back pains, we also examine the entire body structure in relation to treatment. Our goal is to provide our patients with relief from pain and discomfort, and to improve their overall health and wellness. Our chiropractors use a variety of techniques to help our patients achieve optimal health. We utilize manipulation techniques to adjust all the joints in the body, not just the spine. We also provide education to our patients, helping them to understand the causes of their pain and how they can prevent it from recurring. We use stretching and other therapies to promote healing and restore proper function to the body. We treat a wide range of conditions at Lamp Chiropractic, including conditions in the foot, knee, hand, elbow, and shoulders.

Our chiropractors are dedicated to providing the highest quality care to our patients. We take the time to
TIPS FOR ENHANCING SLEEP QUANTITY AND QUALITY
THE RESULTS OF THOUSANDS OF STUDIES INSIST THAT THERE ARE NO BIOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS THAT DO NOT BENEFIT BY A GOOD NIGHT’S SLEEP.

Cervicogenic Headaches
Cervicogenic Headache Headaches are extremely common in today's society, and while you may consider them a normal part of life, they don’t need to be. Infact, they are a sign your brain has reduced oxygen supply. Cervicogenic HA’s are the most common form of Headache Headaches can come on after trauma, but are more commonly the result of years of poor posture. A human head weighs approximately 5 kg and when the head is forward that weight increases exponentially the forces in our neck and its joints. Cause: Over time, forces on the neck squash the synovial fluid (joint lubricant) out of the joints of the cervical spine. Eventually the fluid in the joints decrease to a point where the joints can scratch together (this causes neck pain). Your body responds by tightening up the muscles over the joints to limit joint movement thereby limiting the scratching within the joints. Because a tight muscle is thicker than a loose muscle, extra pressure gets placed on the blood vessels taking oxygen to your brain. Like squashing a hose this restricts the blood flow with oxygen to the brain and that's what a cervicogenic headache is. Treatment: Our treatment process
