Gresham, OR - March 20, 2019 - Dr. Jeffrey Bratten, DC, and his team of wellness professionals at Great Health Chiropractic provides a comprehensive selection of services to help patients of all ages achieve their best health. Because no two bodies are the same, the chiropractor provides a customized approach to wellness.
Back and neck pain and other conditions are often caused by spinal misalignments that prevent the nervous system from operating properly. The Gresham chiropractor provides advanced spinal correction and adjustments using state-of-the-art equipment. Restoring spinal vertebrae to their normal position allows the nervous system to function optimally.
Massage therapy is usually provided in conjunction with chiropractic care. Therapeutic massage is known for its many health benefits. Besides giving patients a sense of relaxation and enhanced well-being, this modality improves sleep, addresses misalignments and postural disorders, alleviates anxiety and depression, increases circulation, and boosts the immune system.
Rehabilitation is an important part of chiropractic care as well. Dr. Bratten recommends exercises and stretches to strengthen affected muscles and reduce joint inflammation, minimizing the risk of recurring injuries. Therapeutic exercises improve flexibility and coordination, correct posture, and reduce stress and tension. Providing patients with individualized exercise routines to do at home between appointments accelerates the recovery process.
Eating a healthy diet goes a long way toward promoting wellness. To that end, Dr. Bratten provides nutritional programs to assist patients in making healthy food choices and taking supplements when needed. He also advises patients about possible food triggers that could cause or aggravate certain health conditions.
