At Carolina Active Health Chiropractic, we believe that we’re all athletes in our own way.  When we use our bodies, we’re using the muscles and joints that allow our body to work. Whether you’re training for the Olympics, a weekend warrior, a stay-at-home parent of toddlers, a server, or work at a computer all day, your body is working.  

Because of the diversity in which we use our muscles and joints, our Greenville doctors treat a wide variety of conditions through chiropractic care.  And although many patients come to see us for the same reasons, the way their specific injuries are obtained can differ greatly. We work hard to find the root of every individual injury we see, remedy it, and get your body back into its fully functioning form.  

Our goal is to provide you with the chiropractic care and services that you're comfortable with.  We work with you to find a plan that is not only beneficial to your current pain maintenance and overall proper body function, but will also support a natural, holistic body, soul, and mind.

Neck Pain

How often a day are you on a device?  Probably more than you’d care to admit.  No judgement from us, your neck may have more to say about it though.  With the excessive use of our handheld devices mixed with the use of our computers mixed with lack of proper posture, the neck is under constant pressure and oftentimes constant strife.  However, a healthy neck is achievable. Sometimes it’s as simple as knowing the proper exercises and posture techniques.

Back pain / low back pain

Untreated back pain can be unbearable and can easily spread to other parts of the body, including the neck and even the hips, due to overcompensation.  That’s a road you don’t want to go down. Your spine is your body’s main support which means there’s a lot riding on it to function as it should. Get your back healthy without the use of medication or surgery that can add to pain and lead to a much longer road to recovery.  

Headaches

A headache is a surefire way to ruin your day, even the tiny, nagging kind.  But, those big ones can keep you laid up in bed, unable to work, talk, focus- even thinking hurts.  Headaches may occur due to misalignment. Finding the underlying issues can help rid yourself of headaches without the need for all those over-the-counter headache medications.  

Knee Pain 

Carolina Active Health Chiropractic has seen many knee injuries and they occur for the old and the young, the Olympian and the gamer, the house painter and the office worker- knee pain doesn’t discriminate.  But, it can be treated. We can offer great insights on how to get your knee pain under control and keep it that way.  

Shoulder Pain

When your shoulder is in pain, mobility and flexibility become a big issue that can lead to safety problems within your everyday life.  If you can’t turn your head, you can’t drive, work, pick up your child. The good news is that the fix may be quick and immediate with proper stretching and exercises.    

Carpal tunnel syndrome

When your hand hurts, you know it immediately.  We use them excessively. If you suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome the aches can go from fleeting to unbearable.  The slightest of manipulations may be all you need to find comfort. Surprisingly, the manipulation may be of your elbow or spine.    

Herniated discs 

Your spinal discs can cause great discomfort and when they become herniated, bigger problems may be around the corner.   If treated with chiropractic care early, surgery and other invasive measures can be avoided. With the proper treatment plan, herniated discs can not only be repaired, but are less likely to return.  

Sciatica

The sciatic nerve begins in the lower back and works its way down each leg.  This means that when it becomes impaired, a large portion of the body is affected.  If you have sciatica you can experience tremendous pain in differing parts of the body, including the buttocks, legs, hips, and lower back.  Fixing the cause of the problem through chiropractic services will benefit greatly in restoring proper body function and abilities.  

Car Accidents and Personal Injury Accidents

Carolina Active Health Chiropractic has worked with numerous patients who have been injured due to a car accident or through the fault of another.  We understand that there are many moving parts involved with an ordeal like this- physical, mental, financial, and more.  

Our staff is sensitive to these matters and work with you to gain back your physical strength, mobility, and proper body function, so that the rest of your life will follow suit.  

Don’t live in discomfort, achieving relief with the help of a chiropractor is so easy.  Chiropractic care is an organic, safe way to achieve comfort without the use of harmful medications or painful surgeries that require weeks or months of recovery.  

Why Let Pain Rule Your Life?

We’ve heard time and again from our Greenville patients that they can’t believe they waited so long to come in and see us.  That’s a great compliment, but honestly, we can’t believe it either. 

Your body is meant to support you and help you thrive, when it falls out of balance it’s not only painful, but it can lead to more serious physical ailments, as well.  And the toll it will likely take on your mental and spiritual capacity can be just as debilitating.  

Physical discomfort is known to cause mental stress and depression and it can contribute to financial stress due to the inability to work.  You don’t have to live your life under these circumstances.   

If you’re suffering from any of the conditions above, relief is just one chiropractic visit away. 

Make an appointment to see us, let’s get you the life you deserve to be living.  

Possibly the best chiropractor in America! Dr. Nelson takes his time and uses several different modalities to achieve the best results for you, rather than a one size fits all approach. I can’t recommend him enough!
