From back and neck pain to headaches; from sports injuries to wellness check ups – millions of people around the world have experienced the benefits of chiropractic care. Chiropractic care can offer a complete wellness approach to maintaining a healthy lifestyle without the use of drugs or surgery.

Chiropractic is a primary health care profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system. The effects of these disorders on general health and quality of life are the prime focus of a chiropractic doctor.

Chiropractic care facilitates the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Every chiropractor has his own way of practicing, of blending techniques with a personal touch. Dr. Berenstein practices a diversified system involving hands-on manual therapy including spinal adjustments. An adjustment is a specific force applied to a 'misaligned' or locked joint to correct its position and movement. Correcting the joint function will free spinal motion, reduce the associated muscle tension, and remove nerve interference.

For cases where manual adjusting is not appropriate or where the patient is uncomfortable with this technique, Dr. Berenstein utilizes alternative techniques to manage patients’ conditions. The use of an 'activator' instrument to deliver a quick adjustment directly to the joint is often a comfortable and effective alternative. Gentle joint mobilizations are also used, as well as soft tissue techniques such as trigger point therapy and myofascial release techniques. Furthermore, Dr. Berenstein uses Laser Therapy as another alternative. This state-of-the-art technology blends with the chiropractic philosophy by supplying the body with laser energy which assists the body to heal itself naturally. With all of the above techniques, no ‘crack’ is heard and the body is not pressed or twisted. Overall, there is a chiropractic technique suited to every individual’s comfort level.

A Natural and Effective Treatment For Your Pain

What is Laser Therapy?
Therapeutic Laser Treatments provide patients with a safe, effective and painless therapy, with results which are often immediate with no side effects. It uses the body’s own natural healing systems to relieve pain, increase joint mobility, increase tissue integrity, and promote cell regeneration.

Therapeutic Laser Treatment offers treatment for both acute and chronic pain conditions. Within a short period of time, patients who have been incapacitated or restricted by pain for years regain the active and healthy lifestyles they knew before their injury or illness occurred.

How Does It Work?
Therapeutic lasers work by supplying energy to the body in the form of billions of photons of light. The body absorbs this laser light and transforms it into chemical energy, which the body then uses to commence its own tissue repairs.

The biostimulating effect of laser therapy can: Decrease pain Decrease inflammation and swelling Accelerate tissue healing Reduce the formation of scar tissue from: cuts, scratches, burns, or post surgery Enhance joint mobility Repair damaged nerves Bring numb areas back to life

How Long Does The Therapy Take?
Treatment time will vary from as little as 2 minutes to as long as 20 minutes. The total number of treatments required varies between 6 to 24 depending on the body’s natural healing rate and the severity of the condition.
