Our chiropractic care in Glendive is designed to relieve your pain, restore proper nerve function, and prevent future issues, helping you get back to your daily activities with ease.

Understanding Pinched Nerves

A pinched nerve occurs when there is excessive pressure on a nerve by surrounding tissues such as bones, cartilage, muscles, or tendons. This pressure disrupts the nerve’s function, causing pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness. Just like a train needs a clear track to reach its destination, your nerves require an unobstructed path to function correctly.

The Role of the Spine

Your spine is designed to allow movement while protecting the spinal cord and maintaining open nerve pathways. When a vertebra is out of its natural position, it can compress the nerve that passes through the surrounding openings, leading to irritation. This misalignment is known as a subluxation.

There are two main types of nerve interference:

Compressed Lesion: Also known as a pinched nerve, this is less common but occurs when the nerve is directly compressed.
Facilitative Lesion: More common, this results from the nerve root being twisted, strained, or chafed.

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

At Gabbert Chiropractic, we go beyond treating the static structures of the spine. Our holistic approach includes addressing the soft tissues such as muscles, which are controlled by the nervous system. This comprehensive treatment helps break the cycle of pain and dysfunction caused by subluxations.

Our Treatment Approach

Extensive Examination: We conduct a thorough examination to identify the root cause of your pinched nerve and locate the exact area that requires care.
Chiropractic Adjustments: By realigning the spine, we restore movement and relieve nerve pressure. Chiropractic adjustments also trigger the release of endorphins, your body's natural painkillers.
Soft Tissue Therapy: We address the muscles and soft tissues to ensure they support the spinal adjustments and maintain proper alignment.
Preventive Care: Our goal is not only to treat the current issue but also to prevent future occurrences. We provide guidance on exercises, posture, and lifestyle modifications to support your spinal health.

Pain Relief: Immediate and long-term relief from nerve pain and discomfort.
Improved Mobility: Restored movement and flexibility in the affected area.

I will forever be grateful to Dr. Tracy for taking me on as a patient and providing health care which is otherwise inaccessible to me in my town of Glendive, Montana. My life and health have been extended and enriched because of his care.

BACK PAIN – I could not walk for more than half a block without sitting down and resting. I probably will never be completely healed, but most of the time, thanks to Dr. Gabbert, I am pain free.

I started coming to Dr. Tracy over 20 years ago due to neck problems, headaches, back, hip, leg, and feet problems. I faithfully had my treatments on a regular basis throughout the years. I can’t remember the last time I’ve had a headache. He has healed my back, hips, and leg pain, and has improved the pain in my feet.
