How Our Birmingham Chiropractor Can Help You Overcome a Sinus Infection

If you've ever had a sinus infection, you understand just how miserable they can make you feel. Not only does sinusitis produce an annoying runny nose and nasal congestion, it can also cause unbearable pain in your face and head. Our Birmingham chiropractor at Back on Track Chiropractic & Wellness Center is here to help!

What is a Sinus Infection?

Eight hollow spaces located in the bones of forehead, cheeks and temple make up your sinuses. Healthy sinuses are opened up and contain sticky mucous that keeps contaminants from entering into the lungs. When there is a sinus infection present, this lining gets inflamed, blocking mucous and drainage. This in turn creates the pain and pressure associated with sinusitis. If you've never thought about seeking chiropractic care for sinus relief, it's time to think again. Aligning your spine helps your body perform at it's best - and that means combating sinus infections and preventing them. 

How Our Birmingham Chiropractor Can Help 

If you get frequent sinus infections, it may be time to call our Birmingham chiropractor. If your spine is not in proper alignment, the muscles attached to the vertebra can become swollen, disrupting the lymphatic drainage from the head and neck. Chiropractic care can provide relief by removing obstructions from the sinuses and aid in proper drainage. They can also help your body stay in optimal health by freeing the nerves from interference.

The great news about the different types of chiropractic techniques used is that they are natural and completely safe. There are also no negative side effects, as can be the case with most types of prescription drugs. At Back On Track Chiropractic and Wellness Center, Dr. Scott Duca uses various hands-on techniques including the following: 

• Diversified Technique
• Thompson Drop Technique
• Flexion/Distraction

At times, Dr. Duca also uses an activator tool. The technique he uses largely depends on the patient and the condition that is being treated.
