Research has found that some of the best ways to treat headaches are exercise and spinal adjustments. So, if you've been experiencing headaches, give us a call today! 🤳

Spondylolisthesis is a spinal disorder in which a vertebra slips forward onto the bone below it. Risk factors for spondylolisthesis include high-impact sports, such as gymnastics and football. Genetics may also increase some people’s risk. This condition can lead to spine instability, meaning the vertebrae move more than they should. The slippage and instability can put pressure on the spinal nerves, potentially causing lower back pain or leg pain.

The term spondylolisthesis (pronounced spohn-di-low-less-THEE-sis) comes from the Greek words spondylos (meaning "spine" or "vertebra") and listhesis (meaning "slipping, sliding, or movement"). In many cases, spondylolisthesis can be effectively treated conservatively with chiropractic care. Call us today to learn how and schedule an appointment! 🤳
