Here's How CBP Can Help Restore Your Spinal Health

Deterioration of your spinal health can leave you in pain, depressed, and frustrated that you can’t easily do everyday tasks or have to give up sports or hobbies you enjoy. 

While rest, physical therapy, and rehabilitative workouts can all help increase your flexibility and reduce tension in your back, sometimes these conservative measures aren’t enough to offer relief. That doesn’t automatically mean you need surgery, however. 

Chiropractic biophysics (CBP) practitioners are specially trained to evaluate your level of spinal health and find issues with your alignment. They use their findings to develop a personalized CBP rehab program to help with pain relief and mobility. 

At Advantage Spinal Dynamics & Innovative Medicine in Meridian, Idaho, our team of experienced medical practitioners uses chiropractic biophysics to help restore your spinal health and put you back on the path to total body wellness.

Who needs CBP

CBP can benefit a great many people. 

For example, we often see patients who have been involved in an auto accident and suffered whiplash as a result. The forward and backward snapping of the neck during even a mild fender bender can injure and misalign the cervical spine (running up through your neck).

Another common scenario is injury to the lumbar spine (lower back). That’s common if you work a job or play a sport that requires a lot of repetitive bending and twisting, or if you routinely have to lift heavy objects. 

Other common causes of neck pain and back pain include employment that requires you to sit at a desk and work at a computer for many hours every day. That can lead to all types of spinal problems, especially if your posture is bad. 

If you suffer from any of the following, it might be time to seek help from a qualified CBP practitioner:

• Chronic back pain, whether you’ve had an acute injury or not 
• Headaches, fatigue, depression, sleep issues, or brain fog after a car accident
• Constant neck pain that worsens when you use a digital screen
• Waking up in the morning or during the night with back or neck pain

Chiropractic biophysics is designed to get at the source of your problem, often spinal misalignment, and correct it gently but firmly so you can feel more like yourself.

The CBP process

The typical chiropractor addresses health issues by gently manipulating the spine to relieve pressure and decrease pain.

A chiropractic biophysics expert combines knowledge of anatomy, biology, and physics gained through extensive training and experience to approach spinal health more holistically.

At Advantage Spinal Dynamics, we start every evaluation with a battery of diagnostic tests to better understand what’s going on in your body and, specifically, your spine.

We may order X-rays or an MRI to get a clear picture of the state of your spine, and we ask many questions about your overall health, spinal issues, and back pain. 

When we look at your spinal alignment, we examine your posture and movement, observing how you sit, stand, and walk to identify spinal health flaws causing pain or inhibiting mobility. We employ gentle mechanical traction to correct the curvature and alignment of your spine.
