Chiropractic Port Allen LA Corrective Care X-Ray

Phase 1: Restore Motion

If you are suffering with health issues in Port Allen LA our first objective is to find out if you have something we can help with. A lot of times your issues can come from a bone that’s out of place and stuck putting pressure on the nerves a.k.a. subluxation.

Once we have determined that is what’s going on with our range of motion exam, neurological test, scans and or motion study x-rays we want to restore motion as fast as possible into your spine which reduces inflammation and taking pressure of your nerves = YOU FEELING BETTER


Phase 2: Restore Posture in Port Allen LA

Once motion and proper nerve flow is restored you need to work on correcting your posture so you don’t have your previous issues return and can live a healthier life. In order to do this, it is imperative to receive lifestyle chiropractic care and continue to do you spinal corrective exercises at home


A deceptively simple, pillow-like device, the Cervical Denneroll orthotic device is engineered with curves, angles and ridges extrapolated from Chiropractic BioPhysics’® evidence-based cervical spine model. After receiving simple training and education, your patients will be able to properly position the Cervical Denneroll device for low-stress, comfortable treatment at home.

The Cervical Denneroll orthotic device is available in three sizes, coded by color:

  • Gray: For tall or flexible adults;
  • White: For average-sized adults and those with less flexibility;
  • Gold: For small or pediatric patients.

Correcting the cervical curve is one of the most challenging aspects of corrective chiropractic. The Dakota Traction provides proven compression traction forces to help restore lordosis and reduce associated forward head postures with a wide range of neck configurations. We recommend the Dakota Traction as the foundation of your home traction program due to its simplicity and efficacy. It is durable, affordable and allows for traction to be performed daily at home. Patient simply places elastic band over forehead and relaxes neck backward into full extension. A single daily session of 20-30 minutes is recommended. For use only in carefully screened patients (FREE SCREENING PROTOCOL available on request.). In the event the compression loading force is not tolerated well, doctors may consider using one of our alternative products.

Mechanism: Provides extension/compression traction to stretch tight, contracted, soft tissue on the anterior aspect of the spine in order to allow for the return of the normal lordosis. Unit is constructed of firm but comfortable open cell foam which will hold up well with repeated use. Compression traction force is provided with a single elastic band over the forehead to pull the head down and backwards, bringing the neck back into full extension. Tension is fully adjustable and remains constant from session to session.

Chiropractic Port Allen LA Pro-Lordotic Device

The Pro-Lordotic Neck Exerciser is a progressive resistance neck exercise device that tractions the normal lordosis into the cervical spine while active extension exercises of the entire cervical spine are performed during the five minute, structural/postural corrective, home or in-office treatment session.
This is the only home exercise device to apply a strong rehabilitative stretching of the anterior cervical structures. This helps to stretch out thinning degenerated discs, breaking-up scar tissue and allowing them to absorb surrounding blood and re-hydrate. It can also be used to strengthen the important deep anterior cranial-cervical flexors, which research has shown will improve head posture and reduce chronic neck pain and headache.

The Pettibon Cervical Neck Traction Device gently stretches your neck at your own pace. This device restores neck mobility and relieves pain. The Traction unit includes a fabric doorstop to be used at home and is compatible with most standard height doors.
