Thumbs Up

Again recently a patient has come in with a chief complaint of thumb pain. At first you might think, "do chiropractors even work on thumbs?" That is a common question but the answer is emphatically Yes! In fact, we can help many conditions involving the extremities such as the shoulder, wrist, hip, knee and foot. Also what I frequently see is that the person with these problems has usually had them for a long time. Perhaps they have been helped to some degree by other treatments but the patient has given up hope that they will get completely better. Thankfully, in most cases, we can clear up the problem completely. It usually boils down to a lack of correct motion in the joint. That is also what we are dealing with in the spine. Please ask us about your extremity problems and quit accepting that pain as normal.
