Sciatic Pain/ChiropractorStatenIsl.com/Bracco Chiropractic Center
Many people suffer from pain radiating from the lower back down the back of the thigh and continuing down below the knee into the calf and sometimes down the front and side of the leg. Patients describe this pain as sharp, burning, stabbing, throbbing, jolt like pain. It can be constant or it can be intermittent. The sciatic nerve is comprised of branches of nerves which exit from the lower back and upper sacral segments. If you were to look at the sciatic nerve you would see that it’s one of the largest nerves in the body width wise. Now, nerves just don’t cause pain for the sake of pain. Most of the time, the sciatic nerve becomes painful because it becomes irritated. When one of the vertebrae in the lower back shift out of its normal position it can irritate the sciatic nerve and cause pain. There is no drug that can put that vertebrae back into its normal position. If the sciatica is very severe drugs won’t even give temporary relief. I have been assisting patients with this condition for the past 36 years. As a Chiropractor, I will analyze the structure of the lumbar vertebrae and sacrum and then correct the cause of the sciatic pain and remove the irritation. Stop suffering needlessly from this condition.

Migraine Headaches/Chiropractic and Relief by BRACCO CHIROPRACTIC CENTER
Patient A.M. suffered from severe migraine headaches everyday for the past three and a half years. The headaches were debilitating, and being a single mom with a young child, life was very difficult. MRI exam of her brain was negative and dark rooms and silence and prescribed drugs became a part of her life. On her first visit to the office she stated that she takes 300mgs of Topamax and 75mgs of Nortriptilene daily. I examined the patient Chiropractically to find if there was a cause of her headaches. Examination revealed two cervical vertebrae out of the normal alignment. These segments were very painful to touch. Chiropractic care was started and after 5 adjustments the patient said that this was the first time in three and a half years that she went two days without a headache. After 15 adjustments and 5 weeks later, her M.D. reduced her medication to 100mgs of Topomax and 25mgs of Nortriptilene. I feel confident that she will be off all medication in a short time. As a Chiropractor, what makes my profession so unique is that I don’t treat the symptoms but I look to find a cause of the symptoms, then remove the cause, and then step back and watch the awesomeness within the patient heal themselves.

Pregnancy, Lower Back and Sciatica Pain Relief With Gentile Chiropractic Care.
Many pregnant mom’s are very uncomfortable for several months or even worse all nine months not realizing that chiropractic adjustments can offer great relief. That lower back pain or tingling burning sensation that radiates down the leg from pressure caused by the weight of the fetus can be significantly reduced or even eliminated with gentle chiropractic adjustments. I have a special adjusting table in which the abdominal section of the table drops away so it does not exert any pressure to the abdominal area. Many mom’s have told me they don’t know how they could have ever made it through the pregnancy without their adjustments!
