    Chiropractic Care Just Makes Sense

    San Francisco Financial District Chiropractor Comments:

    Sbu_155c1 So...you have neck pain. low back pain, wrist pain, a bad knee (that hurts), and headaches, stress...where do you go?

    Hmmm...let me think...the emergency room?  Your Medical Doctor? An Orthopedic Doctor?  A Physical Therapist? An Acupuncturist? Heck...maybe you see all of them. Why not just take a couple of months off of work and really try to get to the bottom of this...what's going on here???

    Or...maybe you just pick up the phone or drop by your chiropractors office...where they can treat all these problems at once...it's business as usual.

    At least that's how it is at Executive Express Chiropractic at the Embarcadero Center in downtown San Francisco. It's rare that a patient only has one or two symptoms. Usually it's a laundry list, because the nerves that exit the spine control all bodily functions. So when the spine is out of alignment, it can cause problems all over. And most patients are all out of alignment.

    The most common problems we treat at our Financial District Chiropractic Center are: low back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, arm and hand pain, headaches, rib pain, upper back pain, and knee and foot pain. And sometimes patients come in with everything...and we treat it all at once...in less than 30 minutes.   

    Hey...it's not easy functioning in a modern day world...it's hard on the body.

    After all...Our bodies were not designed to be sitting at a desk for 8-12 hours a day under artificial light.  Then, sports and accidents, poor posture, bad sleeping habits, and stress...it takes it's toll.

    Back pain, neck pain, and all the other symptoms a chiropractor can help you with, are really warning signs that something is not right. Only damaged tissue gives you symptoms.

    When you have symptoms...it's like the warning lights going off in your car...they should not be ignored. And they certainly should not be masked by drugs. If you do this long term...you risk liver and kidney damage...and the symptoms you are covering up are still there...getting worse.

    The best thing to do is see a chiropractor and find out if they can help you. And the best way to find a good chiropractor is to start online. Do they take the time to educate their patients and prospective patients about their services? Visit with them. Do they look like they practice what they preach?

    Personally, it's hard for me to take a doctors advice on health when they do not take care of themselves.

    And, is your chiropractor skilled with their hands? Not all chiropractors are. Are the treatments gentle? Does the chiropractic doctor explain what they are doing? Do you understand the objective?

    If you answered NO to any of these questions...find someone else. And remember...there are lots of chiropractors in San Francisco that will tell you what YOU WANT TO HEAR...because they don't have enough guts to tell you WHAT YOU NEED. They are scared you will go somewhere else.

    I would rather tell patients what they need and work with those that are willing to do what it takes to get healthy and stay healthy...even if it means losing business along the way. I recommend finding someone that tells you what you need. Both of you will be better off in the long run.

    If you you would like to find out if you are a candidate for care at Executive Express Chiropractic at the Embarcadero Center in the SF Financial District...simply call 415-392-2225, press 1 (24 hr live operator). Ask for a complimentary consultation with Dr. Eben Davis.
