Las Vegas NV - Dr. Matthew Mortensen DC of Lake Mead Chiropractic is pleased to announce that area residents who suffer from pain can find relief from the pain and begin the recovery process more quickly. Irrespective of what caused the patient's pain, the doctor will identify the best approach to relieving pain and beginning the process of recovery. The Las Vegas chiropractor has the knowledge and experience to implement state-of-the-art techniques which promote the body's ability to heal itself.

Pain is a symptom of something wrong in the body. Chemical painkillers and prescription drugs don't help the recovery process, they only mask pain. If taken over a long period, the pharmaceuticals can lose their ability to mask the pain, and can even result in damage to internal organs. Chiropractors promote the body's capacity to self-heal.

A physical examination, coupled with digital imaging studies is often the first step in a chiropractic care plan. The doctor will spend time in the initial consultation looking for the cause of the pain. It may be from an injury, disease, or structural abnormality. From this information, Dr. Mortensen will prepare a customized plan of care.

The techniques which are utilized in the therapy plan will depend on the location and cause of the pain. Often, an adjustment to the spinal column is the first step. Misalignment of the vertebrae can cause pain associated with the subluxation. Pain in the soft tissue may be caused by herniated or bulging discs. Some of the therapy techniques can include massage, electrotherapy and ultrasound.
