Specific Chiropractic celebrates 10 years serving the Midlands

Dr. Scott Allen’s clinic, Specific Chiropractic, is celebrating 10 years of practice in the Midlands, and he remains eager to share the distinction of how he helps improve his patients’ quality of life.

Specific Chiropractic focuses on the structural shift in the spine, not simply relieving the symptoms. If the source of the problem isn’t corrected, the solutions are only bandages or short-term fixes for the resulting pain, immobility or muscle spasms.

“The Specific Chiropractic approach looks for a significant three-dimensional shift of the body’s structural system, with an emphasis on the upper cervical spine,” says Dr. Allen. “The upper cervical spine is vital because it involves the brainstem and spinal cord. Structural problems in this area are especially complicated and more difficult to resolve.”

The spine also houses the body’s nerve system, which sends and receives signals from all parts of the body. When these signals are altered, the normal function of the body is disrupted. That can cause headaches, dizziness, numbness, fibromyalgia, acid reflux or other symptoms.

Their approach is to address that structural shift, not the discomfort. Rather than constantly repairing damage, Specific Chiropractic focuses on fixing the underlying foundation and helping the spine reach its normal structure, Dr. Allen says.

“Specific Chiropractic can provide the long-term solution, one that can be felt and see firsthand,” Allen says. “And, once the foundation has been fixed, we teach our patients how to keep it that way.”
