LP-Chiropatric

Chiropractors are known for their expertise in caring for patients with back pain, neck pain, and headaches. Our chiropractors near you also treat sports injuries and other disorders involving muscles, ligaments, and joints. The benefits of chiropractic care go beyond this and extend into general health as our core body structure affects overall function and health.

The philosophy behind acupuncture is achieving balance throughout your body. Practitioners believe that if you’re in pain, your body is not in balance. In treating the pain, acupuncturists here at your North York wellness centre try to find the specific acupuncture point that will address your physical problem, thereby putting your body back in balance.

Physical therapy assists your body to make a complete recovery and restore you to full function. This is accomplished by designing a very specific treatment program for the injured area. A physical injury damages your muscles, nerves, ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and blood vessels. It is a big challenge for your body to restore everything back to normal. In fact, the repair process may not be fully completed. Even if the pain is gone, you may develop scar tissue, adhesions, or a weak tissue structure that is susceptible to re-injury. Our staff here at your North York wellness centre can help you recover from physical injury.

Through massage therapy, physical functions can be developed, maintained and improved. Physical dysfunction, pain and the effects of stress can be relieved or prevented through regular treatments of massage therapy.

Typically, the longer the patient has the condition, the longer the course of treatment before they experience substantial or lasting results. Acupuncture can be done as often as five times a week, or as little as once a month.
