Chiropractic Pain Relief - You Don't Have to Push Through Pain

Whether it's sudden and sharp or something that's been lingering for months (or years), pain can impact your ability to move, work, rest, and simply feel like yourself. Chiropractic care can help reduce pain by addressing underlying tension, alignment issues, and movement patterns that are putting stress on your body.

Common Pain Conditions We Treat

At Aura Chiropractic, we treat both acute pain (like a recent injury or flare-up) and chronic pain (ongoing discomfort or tension that won't seem to go away). Common issues we see include:

• Neck and back pain - From muscle tension, poor posture, or injury
• Sciatica - Shooting pain down the leg from nerve compression
• Headaches - Including tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches
• Shoulder or hip discomfort - Joint stiffness and muscle imbalances
• Postural strain - From desk work, technology use, or repetitive activities
• Overuse injuries - From sports, work activities, or daily movements

Our Approach to Pain Relief

For acute pain relief, the goal is to reduce inflammation and discomfort quickly, then support the body as it heals. Chiropractic adjustments, targeted soft tissue therapies such as cupping or scraping, and supportive tape are treatments utilized to improve pain. With chronic pain relief, we take a more layered, long-term approach, helping unravel compensations, calm the nervous system, and rebuild trust in your movement.

Acute vs. Chronic Pain Treatment

Acute Pain Care: Focuses on immediate relief and stabilization. Treatment may be more frequent initially to address inflammation and support healing.

Chronic Pain Care: Takes a comprehensive approach to address long-standing patterns, compensations, and nervous system sensitivity that contribute to ongoing discomfort.

How is this different from wellness care?

Pain relief care is focused on getting you out of discomfort and stabilizing the issue. Once your symptoms improve, you may choose to continue with wellness care to maintain progress and help prevent future flare-ups.

You don't have to "push through" pain or accept that pain is normal. Chiropractic offers a thoughtful, hands-on way to help you move comfortably again.
