Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain in the joints, muscles, tendons and other soft tissues throughout the body. Patients may also experience other symptoms such as fatigue, difficulty sleeping, as well as memory and mood issues.
Not that long ago, if you were suffering from pain, fatigue and muscle spasms, your doctor would run a variety of tests. If the tests showed nothing and you kept pestering you doctor, that’s how you’d get diagnosed with fibromyalgia. That’s no longer the case. Today we know that fibromyalgia is a real and researchers are making progress unraveling this mysterious condition. For example, we now know that, fibromyalgia is not an autoimmune or inflammation based illness as was once suspected. Research studies suggest that the nervous system plays a role in the illness. Researchers believe that the fibromyalgia patient’s nervous system amplifies painful sensations, affecting the way the patient’s brain processes pain signals. 1

WHAT IS GENTLE CHIROPRACTIC?
In Florida, a chiropractor is a primary care physician who treats spinal and musculoskeletal problems using manual manipulation to restore joint function and support the nervous system. Chiropractic care can reduce pain, increase movement and improve performance which may mean avoiding unnecessary drugs or surgery.
What does gentle chiropractic mean? Gentle chiropractic care is the subtle, gentle, manipulation of the neck, back and joints.
Gentle chiropractic care is performed with a gentle touch, targeting a specific area. Pain in your neck, back, wrists, shoulders, hips and knees can all be treated with gentle chiropractic manipulations. Dr. Danielle uses different techniques and patient positioning to deliver gentle chiropractic care. Gentle chiropractic care provides the same benefits seen from traditional spinal adjustments.
This approach allows patients to get the maximum benefit from a minimal number of visits.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TRADITIONAL CHIROPRACTIC CARE AND GENTLE CHIROPRACTIC CARE?
A traditional chiropractic neck adjustment begins with the patient lying face up on a table. The chiropractor cradles your head and performs a quick, thrusting movement. This position, along with being unaware of the safe and effective mechanics, leads some people in fear of seeing a chiropractor.
A gentle chiropractic neck adjustment is different. First is the setup. Beginning with the patient lying face down on the table. Second, Dr. Danielle carefully positions your head and delivers a gentle, downward pulse. If you prefer the traditional face up vigorous neck adjustment, Dr. Danielle will be happy to oblige, if appropriate. In the end, most of her patients prefer her gentle prone approach to chiropractic neck adjustments.
