During pregnancy, the huge physiological changes happen due to center of gravity shifting forward and cause all sorts of muscle imbalances. We address shortened / tight muscles by performing soft tissue therapy and address stretched / weak muscles by prescribing rehabilitation exercises. We also perform spinal adjustments to restore spinal mobility.

Before performing any chiropractic adjustment, chiropractors examine patients' spine through palpation and look for any misalignment or impaired movement. The chiropractic physician uses his/her hands or an instrument to manipulate / adjust the joints of the body, particularly the spine, in order to alleviate biomechanical distortions and restore proper motion in your spine. Brea Chiropractor Dr. Yi utilizes diversified adjustment technique.

Sciatica refers to pain, weakness, numbness, or tingling in the leg. It is caused by injury to or pressure on the sciatic nerve. Depending on cause of sciatica (disc herniation / spinal stenosis / piriformis syndrome), we focus on alleviating the pressure off the sciatic nerve by stretching the tight muscles (piriformis) and gapping the joints through flexion distraction therapy.

Chiropractic treatment is widely recognized as one of the safest noninvasive, nondrug forms of medical care available for the treatment of neuromusculoskeletal conditions. Although no health treatment is completely free of potential adverse effects, the risks associated with chiropractic treatment is very small. Neck pain and back pain are treated through segment-specific, precise spinal manipulation after careful examination. Chiropractors are well trained professionals who provide patients with safe, effective care for various health conditions.

Yes! We also provide chiropractic treatment with rehab to our pediatric patients. Chiropractic care works well for children because their bodies are still growing. The alignment of the spine is very important for proper development. We also help our pediatric patients to maintain good ergonomics for healthy spine growth, good posture and body development for kids. It's really important to get them off to a good start, because kids are super adaptable.

Depending on types and stages of the conditions, the aims of chiropractic care are: - Reduce pain and inflammation - Restore proper joint function - Refine posture and body movement - Help you with ergonomics and exercise regimes - Enhance balance and coordination

This audible phenomenon is generated through a chemical process called tribonucleation. During the chiropractic adjustments, there is a sudden decrease in the pressure of a joint capsule, causing dissolved gasses to be rapidly released into the joint cavity. The rapid separation of the joint which typically occurs during a chiropractic adjustments create this gas cavity to form, thus creating an audible 'pop'.

No. Before any chiropractic adjustments, the patient needs to be properly examined and palpated (static / motion palpation) to determine the spinal segments to be adjusted.

Every patient is unique and therefore, each patient responds to chiropractic treatment differently. It is determined by their level of stress, cumulative trauma, age, daily routine, biomechanics and size. Some patients only come in to get treated when they are in pain while others rehabilitate optimal spinal function. Chiropractic care supports healing in the body. Depending on which tissue is causing pain, length of recommended care can vary. To help you better understand, let's look at how long certain tissue takes to heal. - Muscle (6-8 weeks) - Tendon (6-8 weeks) - Ligament Grade 1 (12 weeks) - Ligament Grade 2 (12-24 weeks) - Intervertebral disc (12 months) - Nerve (12-18 months)

Chiropractic is a health care profession concerned with diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system, especially of the spine. Brea Chiropractor Dr. Yi has been treating patients since 2018.

Chiropractic adjustments usually do not cause pain. At times, adjustments can be uncomfortable depending on the area being treated and the pressure being applied. Post adjustment, it is normal to have soreness 24-48 hours after treatment, but you should not have increased pain after or during treatment.

1. Understand the Extent of Your Injuries A car crash only lasts for a split second, but it can have detrimental effects on your body. Because a car accident happens so quickly, it can be difficult to truly understand how you were injured and where you were injured. At first, you may only feel pain in your neck and shoulders. However, you could also be sustaining injuries in your back without realizing it. This is one of the key reasons to see a chiropractor after an accident. A car accident chiropractor can conduct a full evaluation and examine your entire body to help you understand the extent of your car accident injuries. ​ 2. Car Accident Injuries Often Have Delayed Symptoms When we’re in a car accident, our bodies’ survival systems jump into action. This stress response is there to help us get to a safe place and avoid further danger. However, this is also one of the reasons why we may experience delayed symptoms of injuries. Medical professionals always recommend that car accident victims see a chiropractor immediately after a crash. You may be suffering from a serious injury that needs treatment, even if you’re not yet experiencing symptoms. ​ 3. Help Reduce Inflammation Even if your car accident was considered minor, inflammation can still occur throughout the body. Any kind of unexpected force from one car hitting another can lead to micro-tears in muscles or ligaments. These tears result in inflammation, which can cause a lot of pain and soreness. Receiving chiropractic care after an auto accident can reduce this inflammation and ease pain and soreness. ​ 4. Can Prevent Further Injuries When we get injured in a car accident, we often attempt to overcompensate or move in awkward and uncomfortable ways to avoid pain or reduce pressure on a particular part of the body. Unfortunately, these awkward movements frequently lead to further injuries, pain, and soreness. Seeing a chiropractor after a car accident can help identify all of your injuries and prevent further injuries. ​ 5. Relieve Pain This may be the best reason to see a chiropractor for a full evaluation after an accident. Chiropractic care can relieve pain! If you’re suffering from intense or chronic pain, it’s going to affect every area of your daily life. Working, caring for children, or running errands can suddenly become excruciating tasks. Don’t let your pain run your life. See a chiropractor right away if you’ve been in a car crash. ​ 6. Enhance Sleep Many victims of a car crash will suffer from insomnia after an accident. This may be due to the trauma of the accident, severe pain, or muscle soreness. If you’ve been having trouble sleeping, getting routine adjustments from a chiropractor can help calm the body and allow you to rest. 7. Receive Non-Invasive Treatments One of the main reasons why victims of car accidents choose chiropractic care is the fact that it’s non-invasive, it typically doesn’t involve medication, and it’s one of the most natural ways to heal. ​ 8. Stop Scar Tissue from Developing The trauma from a car crash can cause scar tissue to develop. Scar tissue is the body’s way of attempting to heal itself by increasing tissue build-up to cover an injury. If the injuries are treated early and properly, a chiropractor can use massaging techniques to prevent scar tissue from developing. ​ 9. Heal Faster Let’s face it, the world doesn’t stop for us after we’ve been in a car accident. We still have to deal with our responsibilities, even if we’ve been injured. However, if you let injuries go untreated, your recovery timeline can be extended significantly. The sooner we heal, the sooner we can get back to our regular routines. Chiropractic treatment can help you heal faster from car accident injuries. ​ 10. Connect with Legal Solutions As we mentioned in the introduction, one of the reasons why some car accident victims avoid seeing a chiropractor is because of cost. They don’t have the means or the connections to receive legal assistance to be compensated for their treatments. At Reborn Chiropractic & Wellness Center, we introduce our patients to an entire network of car accident injury lawyers that can help. If you’re concerned about the cost of your treatments after your car crash, contact us today to schedule a full medical evaluation and gain access to the legal assistance you need to recover and move forward.
