Post-Operative Care
While we champion natural, holistic healing at Kersenbrock Chiropractic, we understand the vital role that surgical intervention can play for those suffering from car accident injuries, sports injuries, and chronic pain.
Chiropractic care, therapeutic medical massage, and Deep Tissue Laser Therapy are powerful tools for both preparing your body for an upcoming operation and accelerating your healing after surgery.
Preparing your body in this way dramatically sets you up for a smoother recovery. Chiropractic adjustments help to relieve chronic pain and tension while actively reducing inflammation and promoting circulation prior to back surgery, neck surgery, knee replacement surgery, and hip replacement surgery, and many other surgeries.
Seeing Dr. Ben Kersenbrock for chiropractic care and our Licensed Massage Therapists for treatment post-operatively can reduce scar tissue, promote lymphatic drainage, support myofascial release, and provide relief from pain.
At Kersenbrock Chiropractic we offer both prenatal and postnatal chiropractic adjustments and prenatal and postnatal massage. If you have had a C-section our treatments and Deep Tissue Laser Therapy can relieve pain from scar tissue and accelerate recovery.
