How can chiropractic help us?
Chiropractic is based on the idea that optimizing spinal function and alignment can improve the nervous system signal to the whole body. That means a better locomotor function, but a better general health too, through a optimized sympathetic nervous system function.
Benefits of chiropractic
- Back and neck pain relief.
Many people turn to chiropractic to treat pain in the lower back or neck. By adjusting the spine and relieving possible compressions or misalignments, muscle tension can be reduced and mobility improved. - Improved posture and spinal alignment.
Chiropractic techniques aim to correct postural imbalances. A well-aligned spine helps distribute loads properly and reduces the risk of muscle strain. - Increased joint mobility.
Manual adjustments can help release joints that are blocked or have limited range of motion, facilitating joint mobility and function. - Reduction of nerve compression.
When the vertebrae are misaligned, they can put pressure on the spinal nerves. Correcting this misalignment aims to reduce irritation of the peripheral nerves, which can help improve associated symptoms such as sciatica, certain radiculopathies, and neuropathy. - Potential improvement in nervous system function.
Chiropractic is based on the idea that a nervous system free from interference can function more efficiently, influencing the body’s ability to self-regulate and recover. - Complement to injury rehabilitation.
In some cases, chiropractic is combined with therapeutic exercises and postural counseling to promote recovery from musculoskeletal injuries, such as after a sprain, a bulging disc, or an episode of acute pain. - Reducing the Use of Pain Relievers.
By providing pain relief manually and noninvasively, chiropractic can help reduce the need for medication in certain patients. - Holistic Approach to Health Habits.
Many chiropractors include advice on exercise, nutrition, and postural habits, seeking not only immediate relief but also a better long-term quality of life.

Conditions we can help in Quiropráctico Torrevieja?
Back and neck pain
Chiropractic is a health profession recognized by the WHO and the European Union to treat musculoskeletal disorders, especially those affecting the entire spine: cervical, dorsal, and lumbar spine. After a thorough study of your condition, we offer all the techniques and experience of our profession to achieve the relief you expect. Our approach is painless, safe, effective, and suitable for all ages and conditions. It’s suitable for the whole family.
Herniated or bulging discs
The resolution and improvement of disc damage is the hallmark of our centers. We have been dedicated to restoring disc structure for many years with various decompression techniques, currently using spinal manipulation and flexion/distraction tables. In addition, our protocol is complemented by nerve irradiation improvement (sciatica, arm irradiation, etc.) for greater effectiveness.
Headache, Dizziness
There are a multitude of different headaches: tension or Arnold headaches, mechanical headaches, neurovascular migraines, with or without aura, cluster migraines, a multitude of dizziness of cervical, vascular, or neurological origin (vestibular, cerebellar). A prior diagnosis is key in all these cases, allowing us to provide the most appropriate response at our center or refer you to the most appropriate specialist, depending on the case.
Posture, growth and scoliosis
Postural changes can subject the musculoskeletal system to compression or twisting, which is often painful, and can accelerate the deterioration of joint or disc structures. It is important to limit their negative influence, especially in adolescence, when they often appear. A postural assessment is highly recommended for adolescents aged 12-13.
Joints, contractures and tendonitis.
We apply manipulative or mobilization techniques to peripheral joints, or work on soft tissues, fascia, muscles, and tendons in upper or lower limbs, which can be summarized as included within the group of manual therapies.
Sciatica and neuropathies
Neuropathy is a malfunction of one or more peripheral nerves, resulting in pain and loss of motor and/or sensory function. The causes are multiple. It can occur as a result of mechanical nerve impingement (sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.). It can also occur due to diabetes, exposure to toxins or certain medications, autoimmune disorders, certain deficiencies, or from inherited causes. At our centers, we follow the protocol of the “Neuropathy Treatment Centers of America”.
