CHIROPRACTIC SOUTH AFRICA is a long established profession. The first chiropractors hung up their shingles in the 1920's and the first professional association of Chiropractors was established by the Payne twins, Ivan and Alan, in 1939.

Today, South Africa boasts 400 Chiropractors, some of the best Chiropractic legislation in the world, two Chiropractic colleges established within universities and, best of all, they have relegated the mixed-straight shoot-ourselves-in-the-foot issues to the Trashcan. There is one united Chiropractic Association.

NECK PAIN

For a wide variety of reasons modern man experiences significant neck pain. During any 12 month period, 70% of the population will experience some degree of neck pain; 12% of the population will experience disabling pain.

What is particularly disturbing is that anyone experiencing neck pain for six months, will have pain for the rest of their lives. You have six months to get on top of your neck pain - or, it's there for ever.

What does Chiropractic have to offer for you, suffering from neck pain? Is your neck also causing arm pain? Are you suffering from Headache Chiropractic?

What does Whiplash Research have to say on the matter, and how safe is Chiropractic; are you afraid of Stroke Chiropractic?

BACK PAIN

Backpain, both in the midback and the low back is reaching epidemic proportions in the world. How much do you know about Chiropractic Rib Pain treatment? Tietzes syndrome, pain in the chest?

The Slump Test is something you can do at home to see if you may have a slipped disc and sciatica.

ARM PAIN

These Arm Pain case histories demonstrate how arm pain is often, though not always related to a problem in the neck. This is why Chiropractic South Africa is so successful in treating conditions like a Frozen Shoulder, Tennis Elbow and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The source of the problem is frequently spinal, and unless that is addressed, no local treatment of a shoulder or elbow for example will succeed. ARM PAIN CASE HISTORIES

HIP AND GROIN PAIN

There are a number of serious conditions of the hip that, if neglected, lead inexorably to hip arthritis and total hip replacement. The key is early diagnosis and the correct management.

Some like Hereditary Hip Dysplasia lead to an increased range of motion of the hip, whereas Femero Acetabular Impingement Syndrome produces "hip arthritis" signs and symptoms in the young person.

Never, never, never, ever write off the limping child with knee, thigh or groin pain to growing pains. Missed, Perthes disease of the hip is a medical and chiropractic disaster.

LOWER BACK AND LEG PAIN

Are you experiencing leg pain during pregnancy? Leg pain sciatica? A mysterious condition called Meralgia Paresthetica (pain on the side or front of the thigh) that causes pain and tingling in your thigh? Does Chiropractic South Africa have anything to offer?

EXERCISE

You can expect that Chiropractic South Africa will by bullying you to do more exercise. There is now overwhelming scientific evidence that those who exercise and cholesterol will obtain a much better blood fat profile. Likewise it has been clearly shown that an exercise class benefits arthritis. Moreover, lack of exercise is probably the major causes of osteoporosis.

Lastly, most important of all, those who exercise are far less likely to lose their marbles. Alzheimers and exercise are intimately related. Inversely.

SLOW FOOD @ CHIROPRACTIC SOUTH AFRICA

Likewise you can expect that Chiropractic South Africa will make some serious suggestions to make about what you eat. The health of your body, how much pain you experience, and how long you live is just as dependent on his/her healthy living tips as their spinal adjustments.

For example, did you know that it is verplicht/ compulsory for every man to eat a tomato every day? Why? Because the Tomato Prostate link is now rock solid. And prostate cancer is the number-one cause of cancer deaths amongst men. And amongst women? Research shows that women who eat high protein diets are far more likely to get breast cancer.

What connection can you make, what interesting facts about Strawberries, Fish Oil and Olive Oil benefits can you dream up?

Slow food, made fast is why Chiropractic-Help.com is the site for you.
