Back pain in The Villages

Spinal Care

Many people suffer from back pain of one degree to another.

10’s of BILLIONS of dollars are spent each year managing pain relief and back care, but until recently, little focus has been spent on chiropractic care. With a strong push to progressively keep ourselves healthy through diet and exercise, chiropractic adjustments have gained notice for their therapeutic benefits. Spinal manipulation has been shown to decrease pain and stress levels among many other things. It has also been shown to increase blood flow, improve joint mobility and boost your immune system naturally to name just a few of the myriad of benefits.

The question is; why do we keep spending hard earned money to siomply manage the pain? Why not treat the underlying cause and get RID of the pain? Because chiropractic care is still relatively new to the general public, some might see it as unproven. Others think it will require too much work on their part.

Chiropractic care is and has been a proven method for treating pain and has been around for much longer than people realize. Dr. Palmer gave the first chiropractic adjustment in 1895!

Treating your body well IS part of being well. Sometimes medicines are what we need, other times they simply mask what’s really going on. If you think treating your body right is too much trouble, think about this:

The doctors at Legacy Clinic want you to be your best self and live your best life, offering a variety of treatment options from chiropractic adjustments to weight loss to acupuncture and massage. Whatever your health needs, you can almost certainly find them at Legacy!

Acupuncture
Dr Aaron

Dr. Aaron Perry is a Doctor Of Oriental Medicine who has been helping his patients reduce pain and stress for years. He has had amazing success and offers a wide array of treatment options. Along with acupuncture he offers laser therapy in the Villages, all natural immune boosters, dry needling and so much more.

Hi Everyone,

Many of you are now familiar with acupuncture in that in involves placing needles in certain places on the body. What you may not know is that this practice can help with so many different ailments. It has been shown to help relieve pain, stress, improve circulation, reduce headaches and migraines and so much more.

Stress can release chemicals in our bodies that can wreak havok on us over time. Stress can cause anything from tightness in your muscles to weight gain and it can be a factor in other diseases. While nobody can provide a stress-free life for you, we can provide a way to reduce the amount of stress in your life and help decrease the risks that are associated with it.

It looks very painful

Looks (as often is the case) can be decieving. This is true when it comes to acupuncture. The needles used for acupuncture are much smaller than even a sewing needle. They are about the size of one strand of hair. Most patients describe feeling a pressure sensation but no pain. In fact, many patients get acupuncture to relieve their chronic pain.

Spinal Decompression Treatment

Spinal decompression
IMG_1627
Newsletter
June 2020
What Is Spinal DecompressionSpinal decompression is a treatment that relieves pressure on the discs in between your vertebrae. Over time, pressure on these discs can cause bulging and even herniations. This pressure can also cause damage to the spine itself as well as the spinal cord. This damage can lead to excruciating pain caused by pinching on the nerves. Spinal decompression works by stretching and releasing the vertebrae in you lumbar or cervical spine in a way that your body will not fight against. Over time, your discs can reform to their natural shape and size, protecting you as they were meant to.

Lumbar decompression

Spinal DecompressionA therapist will secure a belt around your hips which attaches to a machine. This machine will then pull the belt (and your lower spine) to a set amount of pressure. The machine will hold at that pressure for 45 seconds after which, it will release to half the pressure allowing your muscles to relax. The amount of pressure will be gradually increased to achieve the maximum results for each individual.

Cervical Decompression

Cervical decompression works in much the same way as lumbar decompression.                                                    A therapist will place pads Cervical Decompressionon either side of your neck. This will slowly pull your neck to a set amount of pressure and hold for 30 seconds then release to half the pressure for 15 seconds. The goal of either decompression is to allow the discs to heal and retain the natural curvature that supports your body.

What Is Acupuncture??

What Is Acupuncture?

Have you heard of acupuncture but aren’t sure exactly what is involved? You’re not alone. There are a lot of misconceptions out there about acupuncture and we’d like to clear a few things up.

  • Acupuncture is painful – This seems to be based on a fear of needles. While that fear is real, the pain is not. The needles used are about the width of a strand of hair.
  • Acupuncture doesn’t work – Acupuncture was helping people long before western medicine. It does not involve harmful chemicals and has been proven to provide relief to many symptoms.
  • Acupuncture is expensive – Acupuncture is becoming recognized by more and more healthcare professionals and insurance companies are starting to see the benefits of including it in their plans.
  • Acupuncture is addictive – Although some patients will need a few sessions to gain the maximum benefits of acupuncture in The Villages, it is not addictive. Quite oppositely, acupuncture can often help curb other addictions like smoking or alcohol.

What Is Acupuncture

These are just a few of the many things that acupuncture can help with. If you feel like you might benefit from acupuncture, but you’re still asking yourself “What is acupuncture?”, please contact us today for more information or to schedule an appointment with the doctor. We are happy to be a part of your healthcare team and we look forward to your next visit.

Acupuncture For Headaches

Acupuncture For Headaches

Acupuncture For Headaches

Why Should You Try Acupuncture?

Many of us suffer from routine headaches or very painful acute headaches. If you’re someone who has been suffering in silence, it’s time to speak up! There are options to reduce the severity, occurrences and symptoms of your headaches.

ACUPUNCTURE CAN HELP MANAGE AND REDUCE HEADACHES

A 2016 review published by the American Headache Society found that acupuncture can be part of a treatment plan for people suffering from migraines, tension type headaches, and other types of chronic headaches.

Another 2016 Cochrane review showed that “adding acupuncture to routine care or treatment of acute headaches reduces the frequency of headaches in the short term (three months).”

Many people simply take OTC meds such as Tylenol or Ibuprofen to combat their headaches. These may be effective in the short term, but they can lead to much worse effects in long term usage. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is the leading cause of acute liver failure in the United States. Long term or heavy use of Ibuprofen and Naproxen can cause chronic kidney disease known as chronic interstitial nephritis. Your headaches are bad enough without having to worry about side effects from the pills you’re taking to alleviate them! The good news is that this doesn’t have to be the case. Don’t continue to “deal with” the painful aches, try acupuncture for yourself and get the relief you’ve been needing.

If you think you or someone you know might benefit from acupuncture, call or email us today to learn more or to schedule your visit. You can reach us at:

Acupuncture For Tight Muscles

Acupuncture for tight muscles

HOW DO YOU RELEASE MUSCLES AND TRIGGER POINTS WITH ACUPUNCTURE?

Acupuncture for tight muscles releases trigger points by finding the most tender and tight band of muscle and using an acupuncture needle to poke the muscle and get it to involuntarily contract. Releasing a trigger point gets the muscle out of the shortened state and usually, after a few contractions, it softens and remains in a more elongated and relaxed state. As an acupuncturist, Dr. Perry can feel the resistance at the needle soften as trigger points and muscles are being released. Some patients describe the feeling as “popping a tension bubble” or “melting away tightness and tension.” 

Acupuncture for tight muscles

Some trigger point conditions may resolve in one treatment while others may need five or more treatments for the muscle to reprogram itself. If it is a chronic condition and there are ongoing lifestyle factors that contribute to the issue it can take more time or reoccur if treatment is not frequent enough. There can be soreness in the muscle for up to 72 hours after trigger point release that feels like the muscle soreness after a workout. 

It is recommended to apply warmth and engage in gentle movements in the days following trigger point release to help reduce soreness and promote blood circulation in the affected area. When a muscle is pain-free and unrestricted, it can move in its full range of motion will helps the body’s structural alignment.
