Has your quality of life been affected because of back pain? You're not alone - Harvard Health tells us that almost 85% of people in the US have back pain so severe that they see a doctor at least once in their lifetime. Unfortunately, these problems often start small but end up becoming severe issues like sciatica. For active people and athletes, dealing with back pain isn't just compromising; it's life-changing.
And while many people will tell you that having a "back problem" is something you'll have to deal with for the rest of your life, that's far from the case. The good news is that seeing a chiropractor in Keyport can provide you with the relief needed to live a healthy, active life without giving up the things you love most, like sports and spending time with your family.
Of the millions of Americans who suffer from back pain daily, many have found long-lasting relief through the same chiropractic care offered at NJ Sports Spine & Wellness. But what exactly is chiropractic care, and how does it help?
Chiropractic care is a drug-free, non-invasive approach to overall wellness and healing that focuses on correcting issues with your musculoskeletal system. When performed by a licensed chiropractor, it can alleviate and even eliminate common problems such as:
To treat your conditions and help reduce your pain, chiropractors use time-tested, hands-on techniques to adjust your spine, neck, back, and other joints throughout your body to restore proper function, mobility, and alignment. Once your body is in proper alignment, it functions optimally, leading to improved overall wellness and health.
Unlike some sports rehab clinics in The Garden State, chiropractors from NJ Sports Spine & Wellness work with you one-on-one to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific goals and needs relating to your pain and ability to live a normal life. Because our team takes a holistic approach to healthcare, we cover all aspects of your health and wellness when developing your chiropractic treatment plan. That way, we increase your chances of living a fulfilling life free of pain and worry about throwing your back out.
Seeing a chiropractor can quite literally change your life for the better. According to the American Chiropractic Association, in general, chiropractic therapy is a more effective solution for back pain than other treatments like addictive pain pills, surgeries, and yoga. When combined with services like physical therapy, occupational therapy, and acupuncture, chiropractic care may be the key you need to open the door to a pain-free life.
Shedule An AppointmentSome of the many benefits of seeing a reliable, licensed chiropractor include the following:
Perhaps the most obvious reason to make an appointment with a chiropractor is for back pain relief. Some people only need to see a chiropractor when they have occasional back pain, such as when they wake up in the morning. Others, such as those who have been in serious car accidents, need regular chiropractic adjustments and therapies, which are often supplemented with techniques like physical therapy and acupuncture.
There are many causes of back pain that range from advanced conditions like having sciatica and herniated discs to everyday issues like poor posture and sleeping in a harmful position. Your chiropractor's job is to pinpoint the cause(s) of your back pain and build a customized plan to address your musculoskeletal conditions. Once that happens, pain relief follows shortly after.
At New Jersey Sports Spine & Wellness, we craft personalized chiropractic plans for every patient we treat, with the goal of avoiding harmful surgeries and addictive medicines.
If you've never experienced a headache in your life, you're exceedingly rare. Just about every American will suffer from a headache at some point or another. For some, headaches only happen occasionally and are not much more than an annoyance. For others, headaches evolve into crippling migraines that can affect quality of life, ability to work, and much more.
If you find yourself digging into a bottle of Aspirin or something stronger when you have a headache, it might be time to visit an NJSSW chiropractor.
Do you wake up in the morning feeling like you didn't sleep a wink the previous night? Do you have to take sleep aides like Ambien in order to drift off to dreamland? If you have chronic back pain, getting a full night's rest is easier said than done. From misaligned spines to improper sleeping posture, your chiropractor in Keyport can use manipulation therapy and other techniques to boost blood flow and align your vertebrae, so your body can heal itself and help you rest better.
One of the best things about seeing your chiropractor is that when your session is over, you often feel great. The pain relief feels phenomenal. When you're not in pain, you have a more positive outlook on life, and often enjoy better sleep, blood pressure, and even sexual relations. It makes sense, then, that chiropractic care has been shown to help reduce stress and anxiety, which promotes relaxation and improved mental health.
At NJ Sports Spine & Wellness, we work with a long list of athletes who suffer from sports injuries and other problems that can manifest from being active. For professional athletes, having a trustworthy chiropractor to care for them is needed for their careers. But you don't have to be a pro athlete to benefit from chiropractic care. Ordinary people that enjoy active lifestyles can reap tremendous rewards through chiropractic care, such as improved range of motion and relief from compressed discs.
Whether you enjoy impromptu games of tag football or simply want to play with your kids, seeing a chiropractor can help you be healthy and active without fighting back, neck, and joint pain. That's especially true when chiropractic therapy is used in conjunction with acupuncture, physical therapy, or occupational therapy.ies and addictive medicines.
Your NJ Sports Spine & Wellness chiropractor in Keyport may use a range of techniques to restore function and alignment in your body. Some of the most common techniques our chiropractors use include:
Life has a habit of being unexpected. Sure, some surprises only hurt your bank account, like last-minute renovations in your home. But severe incidents, like car accidents, can inflict physical injuries that cause you long-term pain. These problems, like neck and back injuries, affect many Americans daily. Even worse, many hardworking people turn to risky surgeries and addictive pain medications, only to find themselves deep in a hole that seems impossible to get out of.
If you suffer from serious range-of-motion issues or you're in chronic pain, it's important to know that you have treatment choices. You don't have to put your health at risk to relieve your pain. One of the most successful non-invasive treatments offered for pain is physical therapy. The main goal of physical therapy is to restore movement and function to patients affected by illness, injury, or disability.
Physical therapists work with patients of all ages and abilities, from children to elderly adults, to help them overcome physical limitations and improve their quality of life. At NJ Sports Spine & Wellness, our physical therapists help treat a wide range of conditions, from neck pain and spinal cord injuries to back pain and arthritis.
Once our PTs have made headway, they will often use our chiropractic therapy to provide the patient with more relief. Having the option of both chiropractic and physical therapy is often very effective, because your chiropractor in Keyport can address nerve irritation and joint dysfunction while your physical therapist helps retrain your musculoskeletal system, allowing your body to heal faster.
Some of the biggest benefits of using physical therapy along with chiropractic care include:
Occupational therapy, or OT, is to help patients of all ages and abilities engage in activities of daily living, or ADL. Often, that means helping patients reclaim the ability to continue working, going to school, accomplishing day-to-day tasks, or other activities common to daily living.
Occupational therapy can benefit individuals going through many conditions, such as traumatic brain injuries, strokes, spinal cord injuries, autism spectrum disorders, developmental delays, and chronic pain. The end goal of occupational therapy is to help patients achieve the maximum level of independence and participation in their daily lives. If pain, discomfort, weakness, fatigue, or fear prevent you from participating in activities you love, an OT from NJ Sports Spine & Wellness could become the MVP of your wellness journey.
To give our patients the most complete pain relief and recovery options, our doctors and practitioners will often lean on the expertise of both a physical therapist and a chiropractor in Keyport. By working together, your PT, OT, and chiropractor can provide you with a comprehensive approach to total-body functionality, from your spine and joints to your mind and range of motion.
Some of the most common benefits of using OT with chiropractic care include:
Acupuncture boosts your body's functions and helps improve its ability to heal through anatomic site stimulation - usually called acupuncture points or acupoints. To stimulate these points, acupuncturists at NJ Sports Spine & Wellness insert fine, sterile needles into your skin. Most patients don't feel any pain as needles are applied. Typically, needles are left in the skin up to 30 minutes. After your session, it's normal to feel incredibly relaxed.
While some practitioners still adhere to traditional philosophies, modern acupuncturists take an integrative approach to the therapy. Today, professional acupuncturists use these techniques to stimulate your body's natural healing and pain-fighting processes. When coupled with personalized care from a chiropractor in Keyport as well as physical or occupational therapy, you can find real relief from the physical and emotional roadblocks holding you back. Some of the most reported benefits of acupuncture treatment include:
During an acupuncture session, you may feel a slight sensation of warmth or tingling at the needle's site of insertion. Generally speaking, acupuncture is painless and perfectly safe for you to consider. In fact, many practitioners and doctors recommend combining acupuncture with other treatment options like chiropractic adjustments.
Though acupuncture and chiropractic therapies come from different origins, both include non-invasive, holistic, and gentle approaches that don't require drugs to work. They also both facilitate total-body healing by addressing the underlying causes of your symptoms - not just the symptoms themselves.
Because acupuncture is known to release endorphins and improve blood flow, having a session prior to a chiropractic adjustment can be very beneficial. That's because, after acupuncture, your muscles are less stiff, more relaxed, and easier to adjust effectively. Over time, as you combine acupuncture and chiropractic therapy, you'll benefit from less inflammation and less pain as you heal from injuries or musculoskeletal conditions. That same truth applies to patients who undergo serious chiropractic adjustments.
At NJ Sports Spine & Wellness, our staff consists of licensed and highly-trained professionals, including specialists focusing on:
Every member of our team believes that the path to wellness and a pain-free life begins with customized treatment plans that cater to your needs and body. Unlike some chiropractors in Keyport, we do not treat on-the-surface symptoms with one-size-fits-all therapies. We do not rely on powerful pain medications to mask your pain or invasive surgeries that require weeks of recovery. Instead, we address the root causes of your pain so that we can help you live the happy, healthy life you're craving.
To achieve that goal, we'll conduct an in-depth evaluation to learn about your medical history. We'll also perform diagnostic tests and speak with you one-on-one to get a better sense of your needs. From there, we'll recommend the therapies that can give you a new lease on life and be there for every milestone you hit.
If you're fed up of living with the limits of pain and lack of mobility, we're here to help you break free. Contact our office today to get started.

KEYPORT — A community that has faced years of flooding risks, water pollution and beach erosion is about to receive some help from a team of researchers at Kean University.
In December, the Keyport Council passed a resolution that permitted Kean University to perform studies along the waterfront.
Soon, the borough's bay front will become a training ground in the battle against the impacts of climate change.
"We're establishing a long-term relationship with them (borough officials), so we'll be partners with them as they continue to face the issues of climate change, increasing storm damage and pollution," said Daniela Shebitz, who chairs Kean's Department of Environmental and Sustainability Sciences.
In the coming days, Kean researchers will measure the borough's beach to see if a nearby sand replenishment project in Union Beach slated for later this year will affect the shoreline in Keyport, she said.
Jun Cheng, a coastal geologist at Kean, said he hopes his research on the borough's shoreline, waves and sand flow will help Keyport officials make important decisions about the future. The municipality is particularly vulnerable to flooding and erosion from nor'easters and winter storms, because its position along Raritan Bay makes the borough susceptible to impacts from northeasterly winds, Cheng said.
If the borough's beach is too narrow, a future storm surge could flood Keyport's vulnerable areas, he said. Wide beaches help to dissipate wave energy that would otherwise damage homes and structures, he said.
In 2012, Superstorm Sandy caused flood water to rise more than 6.7 feet over Keyport's bayfront promenade and damaged 113 borough properties, according to a coastal vulnerability assessment. As a result of the historic storm, Keyport lost more than $5.9 million worth of property, according to the report.
Cheng expects his data will help Keyport officials better argue the borough's need for beach replenishment to the federal Army Corps of Engineers, which oversees and partially funds the coastal projects.
But Kean's research will not stop at the municipal boundaries. The techniques used here will help train university students and future scientists in techniques used across the nation to protect shorelines and coastal communities, Cheng said. Those techniques are also valuable here in New Jersey, he added.
Jersey Shore environment:Hundreds attend rally to save whales in Point Pleasant Beach
"New Jersey… is ranked number one in the United States, in terms of volume of sand put on our beach per unit of shoreline," Cheng said.
Communities along Raritan Bay, Ocean County and southern New Jersey frequently need beach replenishment projects, he said.
In addition to beach studies, Kean scientists will test water quality around the former Aeromarine Industrial Park landfill, which was poorly capped and leaks pollutants into Raritan Bay.
"The federal government can't be everywhere for everybody," said Shebitz. Keyport officials "are frustrated with the DEP (state Department of Environmental Protection) for not enforcing the landfill regulations and not protecting the waterways. They feel like they've suffered a big loss of sand, because of erosion and storm damage. And nothing's being done to help them."
"We want to help gather data and information that could be used to help them in their fight to try to get the attention from the federal and state government that they deserve," she said.
Keyport officials did not respond to requests for comment.

Nazir Treadwell rushed for three touchdowns while Mekai Henderson had two as Keyport got past Manchester Township 35-33 in Keyport, and took over the top spot of the Patriot division.
Josh Love gave Manchester Township (4-1) the early lead in the first quarter after embarking on a 56-yard into the end zone on the first snap of the game. Treadwell tied it up early in the second quarter for Keyport (4-1) after a long drive and ensuing four-yard touchdown run.
Manchester Township got back on top after another run from Love, this time for five yards with about five minutes left in the half. But Treadwell again set up Keyport for a score after rushing for 33 yards on a 4th-and-long before penetrating for a one-yard run to tie it up again at 14-14 at the half.
Keyport held on to possession for nearly six minutes to start out the third quarter with a subsequent 15-yard touchdown run by Henderson for the 21-14 lead, with about 6:00 left in the quarter.
Love continued his exploits with about 20 seconds left in the third quarter following a 43-yard touchdown run to cut the lead to 21-20.
Treadwell expanded Keyport’s lead to 28-20 after a quarterback rush into the end zone for six yards but Aidan Lunn put Manchester Township back on the board with a 13-yard run to cut the gap to 28-26 after a failed two-point conversion.
With about two minutes left in the game, Manchester Township gave up a costly penalty that resulted in a 41-yard touchdown run by Treadwell for the 35-26 lead.
Lunn connected with Love on a 65-yard touchdown pass with 1:46 remaining.
Love finished with three rushing touchdowns for Manchester Township and one TD reception.
