Chiropractic, Acupuncture and Medical Care in Lauderhill

Welcome to the online home of Dr. Brian Edwards DC

What conditions benefit from chiropractic care?

Although chiropractic is used most frequently to eliminate low back pain and neck pain, studies have found it to be effective for a variety of conditions, such as migraine headaches, shoulder pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, and most other musculoskeletal conditions.

What can I expect on my first visit?

The first thing a chiropractor will do is ask you about the health complaints about which you are chiefly concerned. The physician will also ask about your family history, dietary habits, other care you may have had (chiropractic, osteopathic, medical, etc.), your job, and other questions designed to help determine the nature of your illness and the best way to go about treating the problem.

A physical examination will be performed in accordance with your DC's clinical judgement, which may include x-rays and other diagnostic procedures. In addition, a careful spinal examination and analysis will be performed to detect any structural abnormalities which may be affecting or causing your condition. All of these elements are important components of your total health profile, and vital to the doctor of chiropractic in evaluating your problem.
