The Root of Pain

By

A valuable lesson was learned recently about how even the most minor of car accidents can have a big impact on a person’s body. And the impact wasn’t even realized until almost 2 months later. Ironically, the M.D.s who were treating this particular person missed the root of the problem. Instead, they were more focused on treating the symptoms which merely put a band-aid on the problem. The root of the problem still existed and continued to cause pain. As an observer, watching someone suffer and not know the cause can make you feel helpless. So is trying to find a solution, yet only finding roadblocks. However, within 5 minutes of entering Damron Chiropractic & Wellness (DCW) a question was asked that changed everything and shed the light on the root cause of the pain.

This particular question was not asked by any of the other medical professionals seen since the inception of the pain. This question should have been asked by all, but wasn’t. The question?

“What happened 6-8 weeks ago around the time that this pain began?”

The answer given? “A minor car accident.” But when it was said, it was almost with disbelief that that incident could be in any way related to the pain the person was experiencing. The x-rays taken of the affected area revealed vertebrae compression. This area directly correlated with the pain. The solution was to begin spinal decompression to relieve the pressure at the base of the spine, adjustments, electrical stimulation, and dietary supplements for disc and connective tissue health. After one visit, the patient felt better than she had in weeks.

This minor car accident turned out to not be so minor after all. While there was almost no damage done to her vehicle as a result of the collision, her body still absorbed the force of the impact. It was this force that changed the structure of her body. While the change was also very minor, it was enough to affect the nerves in her spine and create the pain she was sporadically experiencing. Sometimes pain that lasted hours at a time, without any rhyme nor reason to its appearance. On the surface it appeared that the pain was caused by something entirely different.

The care received by a Chiropractor is truly unique in the healthcare field. It is within this specialty that cures are found without the use of medications or surgery. It is a holistic approach that utilizes the structure of the body to self-heal.

Imagine the difference in people’s lives if they chose the care of a Chiropractor first when experiencing pain and discomfort? There’s nothing worse than living in the dark, without answers as to what is causing you pain. A person’s quality of life simply starts to diminish.

Together, let’s continue to shine the light on the countless benefits of chiropractic care.

 

Proactive Self-Care

By

Being proactive means anticipating that something may happen. It keeps us aware. This is very obvious especially at the professional level of any sport like basketball or football. Each player on the team is always proactive. They anticipate where the ball is going to go and take the necessary steps to possess it. Every team invests the time it takes to determine how to win the game based on who they are playing. Their strengths and weaknesses. They are proactive at winning. When it comes to our health, the ideal is the same mentality. Choosing proactive care helps to ensure we stay healthy and well. The alternative puts us constantly on the defense. Reacting to problems as they arise.

One of the benefits to chiropractic care is the overall awareness one has of their body. People will say they know when they need an adjustment because they can tell when their body is out of alignment. They can feel it and because they can feel it they can anticipate it. Being aware of how one’s body feels is part of being proactive with one’s health. Just like that basketball player watching the ball, and knowing exactly when it’s coming his way. He can feel it.

Opting for proactive care, such as that which is offered with a chiropractor, helps to keep you ahead of the game.This holistic approach to your health teaches you how to be more aware of what your body is telling you. It helps you to anticipate the signs of change, an imbalance, a shift. If we can anticipate the onset of something like pain, we can minimize it’s impact on our life. We can address it and prevent it from getting to the point where it’s life altering. Imagine our world without pain? Or minimized substantially.

Educate yourself on you. All the intricate details that make you you. Doing so could save you days, months, even years of living in pain or discomfort. That’s proactive self-care.

Finding the Root Cause

By

In the field of law there are attorneys. Just as in the field of medicine there are doctors. However, within each field there are countless specialties. In law, there are attorneys that specialize in real estate transactions, divorce, legal defense, prosecution, corporate, and tax. With medicine, there are doctors that specialize in pediatrics, cancer, surgery, heart, female reproduction, and trauma. It is good to have specialities because when there is a specific problem, we want a specific answer, not generalities. When it comes to our health, we know preventative is best. But there are inevitably times when that doesn’t happen and we get sick or injured. Sometimes when that happens there is a ripple effect. Symptoms may be alleviated, but the underlying problem may persist. The good news is that with our overall wellness, there are doctors that focus on finding the root cause of the problem and preventing future problems. One of those doctors is a Doctor of Chiropractic.

What many people don’t realize is that a Doctor of Chiropractic chooses this field of practice because he or she believes in a holistic approach to a person’s health. Each part of a person is intimately connected – mentally, physically, emotionally. What happens to one part of us affects all the others. We cannot separate things into compartments. Chiropractors also believe that prescription medications tend to mask the underlying problem and have the potential to create other problems for the person down the road, too. Chiropractors work tirelessly to resolve the root cause of the problem, whether it’s pain, discomfort, lack of mobility or flexibility, migraines, fatigue, or inflammation. If you have never been treated by a chiropractor this may sound counterintuitive to what we have been exposed to in the media and press with respect to what one might call “modern day medicine.” You needn’t look too far to find countless advertisements for prescription medications offering a solution to various health ailments. But do they always solve the true cause of your problem?

Chiropractic care is a comprehensive approach to the overall wellness of the entire individual. It seeks to understand, then provide a solution to the real problem. It finds the cause.

New Year’s Fitness Resolutions

By

Each and every year as we approach January 1st we think of resolutions. The most popular, by far, is the resolution to lose weight, especially after all those indulgences over the Holidays. However, when January 1st arrives, many of us find that we don’t know where to begin when it comes to improving our health or losing weight. In fact, we may not have seen the inside of a gym in years. We may have aches and pains that have prevented us from even considering enjoying a gym membership. We may be afraid of making that financial investment because of the pain and discomfort. Both may prevent us from enjoying those workout classes or exercise equipment. The good news is that there is a way to eliminate this roadblock to your New Year’s fitness resolutions. It involves specifically addressing the cause of your pain and discomfort, then correcting it once and for all.

At Damron Chiropractic & Wellness (DCW), we help individuals get back on track with their fitness goals so they can have success with their fitness resolutions. One of our four elements of care at DCW is rehabilitation, or physical therapy. By identifying and addressing problem areas with strength training and stretching we can provide countless benefits such as:

  • pain relief
  • increased energy
  • improved sleep
  • more strength
  • better balance
  • greater mobility
  • plus the option to join that gym

Removing the obstacles that prevent us from achieving our fitness goals for the new year is key to living a life of wellness. Let us help you remove the barriers that might lay in your path. We can equip you with the solid foundation from which to enhance your life with better health.

Trust the Process

By

We fear what we do not understand. We shy away from things that tend to be different than what we are use to. We make assumptions regarding our health. We want to see to believe. We take things at face value. Chiropractic care is one of those things that rings true with all of these statements. Many of us do not understand the practice of chiropractic. If we do not understand this specialty of healthcare then we tend to naturally shy away from it. When the pain is gone, we believe our problem has been resolved, yet because we cannot see what’s happening within our body, we take it at face value. While it is understandable that we might feel this way, it is in our best interest to take off our blinders and see things in a new light. In fact, the most successful life transformation stories are because people do just that and trust the process. Let me explain.

Throughout our life, we evolve. We say we believe in certain things – like Santa and the Easter Bunny when we are kids, to love at first sight as a teenager, to happy ever after as adults. Life happens and we change. We face challenges and loss that cause a fundamental shift in our perceptions. No one will deny that as it relates to Chiropractic care there are numerous misconceptions and lack of understanding. And while there is a definite positive shift to a credible and preferred means of wellness and care, there are still those who don’t believe it will help or never even considered seeing a chiropractor.

At Damron Chiropractic & Wellness (DCW) we share countless stories of successful life transformations, both on our Facebook page and on our website. Many of these stories are from individuals who were skeptical of the field of chiropractic because they did not understand it and contrary to what they were familiar with. They were at their wits end with “band-aid” solutions. Whether it was through a referral, a Google search, or a simple sign, they found themselves here at DCW. And because they trusted the process they were transformed. Transformed not only by the ultimate solution to the source of their problem, but with their perceptions of chiropractic care and it’s numerous benefits to long-term health and wellness.

If seeing is believing for you, come see and believe through the words of our patients. Don’t make chiropractic care your last resort. Don’t waste priceless time suffering needlessly with pain and discomfort. Don’t let misconceptions prevent you from seeking a better healthcare choice.

A Chiropractic Solution

By

Just last Sunday, there was an article in the Cincinnati Enquirer about medics sustaining injuries while “moving heavy victims.” We may not think a paramedic is necessarily in danger when responding to an emergency, but treating a person who struggles with their weight can have a negative impact on the paramedics health. The article noted that “injuries can range from minor — taking a couple of days off work — to career ending and a change in lifestyle.” Not only are those who “serve and protect” put in harms way due to the nature of their profession, but performing the tasks required of their job can have consequences, too.  There are countless job hazards in other professions, as well. But, did you know that there is a trusted solution in treating those injured on the job?

The reality is that even professions that aren’t considered dangerous are still prone to accidents and the physical requirements of a job can cause undo stress on our bodies. The stress alone can create pain, discomfort, and imbalances that can negatively impact our sleep, family life, motivation, appetite, and immune system. With injuries, many times they are tolerable, so we choose to do nothing but wait until it gets better. Dealing with stress can be no different. Have you considered that there just might be a better way? A chiropractic way?

A chiropractor is a healthcare professional that can be there to help you mend those injuries sustained at work, from the minor to the life-changing. The difference is that there is no “band-aid” to hinder proper healing. A chiropractor gets to the core of the problem, identifies it, and provides a course of treatment that addresses the entire person. There is nothing worse than spinning in circles when it comes to your health. The end result is lost time, lost work, and lost peace of mind. A remedy that combines the benefits of chiropractic care, with the support of massage and rehabilitation is anything but a “band-aid.” It is the solution your body needs so it can function as it should.

Make sure that chiropractic care is an integral part of your healthcare team. Because minimizing the time it takes to get back to the job you love and feeling good again is what we want, isn’t it?

 

Trigger Points (Part II)

By

Now that you have familiarized yourself with trigger points, let’s look at how they manifest themselves in your body.  In other words, what are the symptoms indicating trigger points and the associated referral pain?  What can be done to help correct the situation?

First, it’s important to note that there are two types of trigger points – active and latent.

  • Active trigger points typically have referral pain and occur due to some injury to the muscle.  This injury can be trauma related, or it can also be the result of repetitive use, poor posture, or nerve irritation.  There is also both pain at rest and the area is tender to the touch.
  • Latent trigger points are more localized, causing a limited range of motion and weakness to the area affected.  It may or may not be painful to the touch.

It is not uncommon that active trigger points become latent, or that latent become active.  Many people may believe that when pain returns after long absence it’s a new injury.  In reality, the problem was only laying dormant and something happened to re-aggravate the same injury.

Symptoms of a trigger point can include:

  • limited range of motion
  • pain
  • dizziness
  • weakness
  • loss of coordination
  • buckling of the knees
  • ringing in the ears
  • tingling
  • urinary frequency
  • muscle fatigue
  • sweating
  • tearing of the eyes
  • tension headaches

Fortunately, there are ways to correct the situation and bring the body back into balance.  One is with trigger point massage therapy, which helps to address the knot of constricted muscles that are causing the pain.  Another option is through chiropractic adjustments.  Many times a misalignment in the skeletal system can cause undo stress on certain muscles.  Only by putting things back into alignment can this be remedied.  Ideally, the best course of treatment involves both massage and adjustments, plus strengthening the affected muscles.  Damron Chiropractic & Wellness is unique in that it offers all three therapies under one roof.  Our highly trained team of professionals work in unison to address the needs of every patient that walks through our doors.  Our goal with this approach is to get you out of pain and back to wellness, so you can get back to enjoying your life once again!

Trigger Points (Part I)

By

Did you know that there are over 400 muscles in your body?  Every day they work in unison, just like the musicians in an orchestra, giving our body the gift of motion.  From the simplest movement to the most complex, each muscle is connected.  When something goes wrong, as with an injury or surgery, the results are instantaneous and obvious.  Our body no longer exhibits fluid movement, flexibility, or the range that it did.  We experience pain and discomfort.  But, it does not require a significant injury or surgery for our muscles to encounter dysfunction.  Everyday activities can lead to problems that manifest itself as trigger points.

Trigger points is a term that massage therapists, chiropractors, those in rehabilitation and physical therapy will use to identify areas of pain or tenderness on a patient they are working with.  Underneath our skin, every muscle, organ, tendon, nerve, and blood vessel is covered by fascia.  Fascia is the thin sheath of fibrous tissue that  holds everything in place within us.  Myofascia is the fascia that covers the muscles. Because we rely so much on our muscles every day, they are prone to overuse and stress.  When this happens, the myofascia can tear and then adhere together preventing the muscles from working as they should.  This, in turn, causes the “knots” you feel in areas like your neck and shoulders which massage therapists, chiropractors, and rehabilitation specialists call – trigger points.

In reality, trigger points have a domino effect on our body’s ability to function because it leads to an increase in muscle stiffness and tenderness and a decrease in range of motion.  Also, there is something called referral pain.  This is the result of the discomfort radiating from the adhesion or trigger point.  This can happen in the area with the knot or another area of the body altogether.  Interestingly, a vast majority of the time the pain felt is actually in a different location than what is triggering it.  A great example of this referral pain is with sciatica (shooting pain in the buttocks and legs).  The pain a person feels is not with the sciatic nerve, but rather from the gluteal area.  The gluteal area is triggering the referral pain which is felt shooting down the buttocks and legs.

Stay tuned for Part II on both the symptoms and treatment for trigger points.

Toxins and You

By

Whether we want to believe it or not, we are surrounded by toxins on a daily basis, both externally and internally.  In fact, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has put the number around 80,000.

According to the Oxford Dictionary, toxin is defined as “an antigenic poison or venom of plant or animal origin, especially one produced by or derived from microorganisms and causing disease when present at low concentration in the body.”  Some obvious examples of toxins are pollution, second hand cigarette smoke, and pesticides.  These three visible toxins are external to the body and known to cause cancer and neurological problems.  However, there are many toxins that are not quite as visible, and even more of a concern, because we don’t necessarily know when our body is exposed to it.

The reality is that toxins can be found in the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the air we breathe, our cleaning products, our make up, lotions, and even water.  Toxins can also have a negative impact on our body and manifest itself through various conditions:

  • Joint Discomfort
  • Reduced Mental Clarity
  • Fatigue or Difficulty Sleeping
  • Low Libido
  • Indigestion
  • Weight Gain & Food Cravings
  • Stuffy Head
  • Poor Skin Condition

Especially troubling is the impact these toxins can have on children as their size is substantially smaller and they are still developing.  So what can we do to help protect ourselves and our families from the harmful effects of toxins?  Here’s a simple list of suggestions to rid your body of as many toxins as you can:

  1. Eat organic.  Be aware of the Dirty Dozen which contains the most pesticide residue because that alone can eliminate your toxin exposure by 80%:  apples, peaches, grapes, strawberries, celery, nectarines, spinach, sweet bell peppers, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, imported snap peas, potatoes.
  2. Read the labels of everything you are consuming and applying to your skin.  The skin is highly absorbent, so avoid the chemicals phthalate, paraben, and retinyl palmitate.
  3. Regular exercise naturally flushes toxins from your body – and sweat!
  4. Avoid saturated fats.  These are found in fatty beef, fried foods, commercial baked goods, and processed lunch meats.
  5. Use higher quality cleaning products and less of them.
  6. Be aware of indoor air quality.  Furniture, flooring, and paint can emit low levels of toxic gasses.  Opening your windows can help clear the air.
  7. Avoid plastic containers when storing food and choose cast iron or stainless steel pans vs nonstick.
  8. Drink plenty of water to help flush the toxins from  your body.

What can you do today to begin eliminating toxins from you and those you love?

What Do Symptoms Really Tell You?

By

 

“Experience Life,” a magazine published by Lifetime Fitness, is always full of informative articles on achieving optimal health and lifelong wellness.  In the most recent addition (January/February 2015), an article by Pilar Gerasimo, focused on minimizing symptom suppression in ways that support living a healthy life with little or no medical intervention.  There are several highlights from that feature piece that can help you to achieve your wellness goals.

In 2013, the Mayo Clinic published a report that said almost “70% of Americans are on at least one prescription drug, more than half take two, and 20% take five or more.”  The most common prescription drugs taken are used to treat depression, pain, acid reflux, infections, plus high cholesterol and blood pressure.  Interestingly, the reason these medications are prescribed to treat a condition that is dependent many times on a person’s lifestyle, and in no way addresses the root cause of their problem.

Medications mask the real problem, giving only temporary relief.  Like a revolving door, as symptoms present themselves medication is taken, then life continues on until, once again, the symptom presents itself.

The author, Pilar, goes on to say “We have been taught to think of a great many maladies (from dry eyes to social anxiety) as ‘diseases.'”  She acknowledges that this school of thinking brought to us by the pharmaceutical industry that makes a living helping us get “better.”

The article equated how we should handle our health problems with the way we handle burning something in the oven.  When the smoke alarm in our home goes off, we do everything we can to remedy the situation and stop the noise.  We would consider what went wrong in causing our dinner to burn, noting how to prevent it from happening the next time.  In the ideal world, we’d like to think that this is how we would handle our health problems that arise, but all too often that is not the case.  We are too quick to slap on a bandaid and carry on as we had been, knowing deep down that the problem still exists and future alarms of a burnt dinner will inevitably happen.

The good news is that there are ways you can change the outcome for the better:

  • Understand how resourceful your body really is in how it manifests symptoms, typically beginning with minor symptoms like fatigue or discomfort.  Listening to your body for the onset of symptoms can alleviate the impact of more serious ones later and allow the body to heal itself.
  • Recognize the connection between the different parts of your body.  In other words, a symptom in one place can indicate a problem in another.
  • Be your own advocate and always ask “why.”  Ask until you truly understand what is happening to you and what you can do about it.
  • Know the ins and outs of the medications you are currently taking and don’t assume anything.  Learn all the side-effects, including how they might affect your goal lifestyle of health and wellness.

Be your own advocate and start listening to you!

Amy Faris, Patient Care Coordinator

Why DCWProfessional Experience Personal Information
After moving to Ohio in 2010, I was in need of some relief from minor pain associated with working in customer service fields for 15 years. I was interested in seeking alternative forms of therapy and found a chiropractor in our small town. After going for a few visits, the therapy seemed somewhat outdated compared to what I had researched. In talking with my husband, he remembered that he knew someone who was a chiropractor. After just a few visits with Dr. Damron, I definitely noticed a difference in his techniques and style. It was nice to see results and feel like I was being listened to as a patient, not just heard…something you don’t always feel with doctors. After being a patient for several years, the opportunity came about to join the DCW team. It would be something different from what I had done in my past, however I knew my passion for working with people would translate well into helping patients receive the best care possible. I believed in the mission of DCW as a patient, and I am excited to be part of living that mission every day. 
 I am originally from St. Louis, MO. I graduated from the University of Missouri – Columbia with a degree in Secondary Education – Language Arts. I worked in restaurant/catering management for several years before starting a career in retail management and training.
In that position, I met my husband, Matt, who is from Wilmington, OH. After we got married in 2010, I moved to Wilmington. Realizing retail wasn’t where my heart was any longer, I began working as a substitute teacher in the Clinton County area. Matt and I live in Wilmington with our 6 year old German Shepard, Dale. I enjoy camping, boating, riding 4-wheelers, and spending time with family and friends. I love St. Louis Cardinals baseball and am a recently converted Cincinnati Bengals fan.
