Welcome to Voortmann Chiropractic!
 
Our mission is to educate and adjust as many families as possible toward optimal health through natural, corrective Chiropractic care. This web site is an effort to clarify our procedures and answer some questions you may have about our office.

Corrective Chiropractic care addresses the total body regardless of symptoms or pain. While pain is an indicator of a problem, a nervous system problem may be present without a pain response. Pain is generally the last symptom to be revealed and the first to go away. Most conditions take 6 to 12 months to correct, while pain and discomfort generally dissipates within 6 weeks. Some chronic cases may require supportive care for many years.

Bursitis_Pain You Don't Have to Live With
Of the millions who suffer the recurring and agonizing pain of Bursitis, Chiropractic is fast becoming the treatment of choice. Chiropractors provide gentle treatment to correct the cause of this often disabling condition. Bursitis can occur in almost any joint of the body, but the shoulder, elbow, hip and knee are the most commons areas of involvement.


Carpel Tunnel Syndrome
Do you spend long hours at a computer terminal, work on an assembly line, use your hands or wrists repetitively, or maybe play a musical instrument for hours a day? If you perform the same movement day after day, you may be setting yourself up for repetitive motion injury.


Alternative Route to Health
If you believe that the only road to good health is paved with pills, potions, and surgery, this is not the article for you. If your favorite part of watching TV is making a list of the new drugs you can ask your doctor or pharmacist about, stop reading right here.

If you are looking for a road where the foundation of good health is realized, read on. Educated individuals are disenchanted with the healthcare their parents knew. Simply seeing the medications their aging parents now take is enough to create concern. What they visualize is a future where one symptom is treated with a pill that creates another symptom without ever finding the cause of the first symptom. Add to this the terrifying statistics of deaths due to medical procedures and intelligent people just want something that is real health. They want different. They want BETTER.



Chiropractors, Ground Zero Heroes
The atrocities of September 11, 2001 have affected us all. Stress levels are high. A 16% increase in prescriptions for "mood regulators" has occurred since the tragedy. Most people are at a loss as to how they can help. Like many Americans, chiropractors have donated blood and made substantial donations to the Red Cross relief fund.

However, for a growing number of chiropractors, "how to help" immediately meant doing the thing they do best: to give chiropractic adjustments to the workers at the site of the World Trade Center.
