At APEX Chiropractic & SCI Wellness Center, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic care to each and every patient. We have included information below about the different services offered at our San Juan Capistrano chiropractic office, but please call us at (949) 488-0016 if you have any questions!
Chiropractic Care
We provide advanced spinal correction and chiropractic adjustments utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic care have chiropractors been able to provide the level of help and expertise that is available today. Many of the newest chiropractic techniques are actually safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As chiropractors who care about utilizing the most advanced chiropractic techniques, Dr Del Cid and Dr Sontag have years of training, expertise and experience in helping patients get pain relief for back pain, neck pain, headaches, and other related conditions originating from the spine. Chiropractic care can even be used to prevent injuries and help you achieve total health and wellness.
Sigma Instruments, is a computerized adjusting system that uses sonar like technology to identify areas of subluxation and misalignment of the entire vertebral column. Once the misalignment has been detected a corrective adjustment is made using this non-invasive instrument. The whole analysis takes minutes. The Sigma Instruments adjusting system is also used to treat tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, frozen shoulder, rotator cuff syndrome, jaw pain, and other conditions related to joints, muscles and tendons.
The MR4 Super Pulsed Cold Laser, is a cutting edge pain management and therapeutic device expertly used at Apex Chiropractic. This modality is an effective pain relief alternative to drugs and surgery. It is FDA cleared, and has been the “Equipment of Choice” for college and professional athletes in the U.S. and around the world for many years.
Corrective Exercises
At APEX Chiropractic & SCI Wellness Center, we teach our patients how to perform special "blueprint" exercises which can help strengthen and correct the irregularities in their body which may be causing pain. Many of these corrective exercises can actually be performed in the comfort of your own home to help improve the effectiveness of your chiropractic care and spinal correction plan. In addition to skeletal misalignment, you may be experiencing pain that is caused by muscles and connective tissues which are out of their proper place. Other types of pain such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches are caused by muscles and tissues that are being used improperly, causing injuries over time. In each case, targeted corrective exercises and stretches from our experienced chiropractors will help you feel good while also helping your body achieve balance and health.
Lifestyle Advice
Many of our patients come to see us to address a specific pain symptom such as back pain, neck pain or headaches. While our chiropractors will address each patient's specific condition with chiropractic care, we often find it helpful to "coach" our patients towards achieving a healthier lifestyle. For example, there may be certain activities that you should avoid or do differently to prevent yourself from unintentionally aggravating your particular health challenges. The goal of including lifestyle advice with a chiropractic care plan is to help each and every patient achieve the fulfilling and happy lifestyle they deserve, one that is full of the activities that are enjoyed most. We recognize that every single one of our patients is a whole person, and we use our expertise to help them reach total health and wellness.
Nutritional Counseling
What does nutrition have to do with chiropractic care? The goal of chiropractic care is to help patients achieve total health and balance with their body, and as part of that goal we provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices. Nutritional counseling by our experienced chiropractic health professionals can assist a patient on their return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you? Do you know how these supplements and vitamins interact with one another? At our San Juan Capistrano chiropractic clinic, we can provide each patient with a structured nutritional program that is based on their individual needs.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy does more than make you feel good, it can actually help your body achieve balance and health. Massage therapy offers a natural treatment approach which actually relieves musculoskeletal pain for many patients. Our chiropractic office provides specific massage and muscular therapy that is complimentary to their chiropractic care. Each massage therapy plan is tailored to meet the patient's unique pain condition or injury. The benefits of massage therapy may include the increase of blood circulation, a localized reduction in swelling and the relaxation of muscles. Massage has been known to relieve muscle pain and spasms, increase a patient's range of motion, while also aiding in a patient's recovery. Some investigative studies have even indicated that a single session of massage may help boost your immune system!
Spinal & Postural Screenings
There is a saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Your spinal health is no exception. Posture and spinal screenings by trained and experienced chiropractors such as Dr Del Cid and Dr Sontag can help reveal important health information, unlocking the door to improved health and well-being. In order to help the San Juan Capistrano community, we provide screenings at community events, health fairs and places of employment. Contact us today at (949) 488-0016 to arrange a screening at your event or workplace.
