Chiropractic Care

We provide advanced spinal correction and chiropractic adjustments utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic care have chiropractors been able to provide the level of help and expertise that is available today. Many of the newest chiropractic techniques are actually safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a chiropractor who cares about utilizing the most advanced chiropractic techniques, Dr. Denise Scott has years of training, expertise and experience in helping patients get pain relief for back pain, neck pain, headaches, and other related conditions originating from the spine. Chiropractic care under a trained professional can even be used to prevent injuries and help you achieve total health or wellness.

Corrective Exercises

At Circle of Healing Chiropractic, we teach our patients how to perform special "blueprint" exercises which can help strengthen and correct the irregularities in their body which may be causing pain. Many of these corrective exercises can actually be performed in the comfort of your own home to help improve the effectiveness of your chiropractic care and spinal correction plan. In addition to skeletal misalignment, you may be experiencing pain that is caused by muscles and connective tissues which are out of their proper place. Other types of pain such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches are caused by muscles and tissues that are being used improperly, causing injuries over time. In each case, targeted corrective exercises and stretches from our experienced chiropractor will help you feel good while also helping your body achieve balance and health.

Lifestyle Advice

Many of our patients come to see our chiropractor to address a specific pain symptom such as back pain, neck pain or headaches. While our chiropractor will address each patient's specific condition with chiropractic care, we often find it helpful to "coach" our patients towards achieving a healthier lifestyle. For example, there may be certain activities that you should avoid or do differently to prevent yourself from unintentionally aggravating your particular health challenges. The goal of including lifestyle advice with a chiropractic care plan is to help each and every patient achieve the fulfilling and happy lifestyle they deserve, one that is full of the activities that are enjoyed most. We recognize that every single one of our patients is a whole person, and we use our expertise to help them reach total health and wellness.

Spinal & Postural Screenings

There is a saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Your spinal health is no exception. Posture and spinal screenings by a trained and experienced chiropractor such as Dr. Denise Scott can help reveal important health information, unlocking the door to improved health and well-being. In order to help the Desoto community, we provide screenings at area malls, community events, health fairs and places of employment. Contact us today at 214-628-1952 to arrange a screening at your event or workplace.

Car Accident & Work Related Injuries

Car accident- cause a variety of serious personal injuries and death. Most people hurt in a car crash suffer impact injuries, from slamming into a part of the vehicle upon colliding with another vehicle or object or by being hit by unsecured cargo that becomes airborne in a crash. Other common car accident injuries are cuts and tear injuries from broken glass and torn metal. In a rollover accident, a car’s occupant can be tossed around and injured from all directions. 

Whiplash- also called neck sprain or neck strain, is injury to the neck and caused by an abrupt backward and/or forward jerking motion of the head, often as a result of a car accident. Whiplash is characterized by a collection of symptoms that occur following damage to the neck. In whiplash, the intervertebral joints (located between vertebrae), discs, and ligaments, cervical muscles, and nerve roots may become damaged.

Symptoms of Whiplash

• Neck pain, swelling, stiffness, or spasms
• Headaches and Dizziness
• Jaw tightness
• Trouble concentrating and remembering things
• Tiredness or trouble sleeping
• Depression
• Vision problems or Ringing in the ears
• Pain or tenderness in the shoulders, arms, or back

Work Related Injuries

If you suffer a work-related injury or illness, you are probably entitled to receive workers' compensation benefits. The types of injuries covered by workers' compensation include physical injuries, illnesses, and some psychological or stress-related injuries.  

When you get injured at work?

NOTIFY your supervisor about the injury and the way in which it occurred, as soon as possible. An injured employee who fails to inform his or her employer, in writing, within 30 days after the date of the accident causing the injury, may lose the right to workers' compensation benefits.
