Chiropractic Care for Sprains & Strains in Rhode Island
Sprains and strains are common injuries during physical activity, sports, or daily tasks. These injuries can cause pain, swelling, and limited mobility, making it difficult to perform everyday activities. At DeCrescenzo Chiropractic, we specialize in non-invasive treatments for sprains and strains, helping you recover quickly and safely without surgery or medication.
Understanding Sprains & Strains
- Sprains: A sprain occurs when a ligament, the tissue connecting bones at a joint, is stretched or torn. This is common in areas like the ankle, wrist, and knee.
- Strains: A strain occurs when a muscle or tendon, the tissue that connects muscles to bones, is overstretched or torn. Strains often happen in the lower back, hamstrings, or shoulders.
Both injuries can range from mild to severe, depending on the extent of the damage. Without proper treatment, these injuries can become chronic and lead to long-term complications.
Chiropractic Treatment for Sprains & Strains in Rhode Island
DeCrescenzo Chiropractic uses gentle, non-invasive treatments to help you recover from sprains and strains. Our chiropractic care focuses on reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and restoring mobility to the affected area. We work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific injury and supports your recovery.

Spinal Manipulation
Spinal manipulation can be used to address spinal misalignment's that may contribute to sprains and strains. By restoring proper joint function and movement, this technique can reduce pain, improve stability, and promote healing.

Class IV Hot Laser Therapy
Class IV Hot Laser Therapy can help reduce inflammation and promote healing of sprains and strains. The laser energy increases blood circulation to the affected area, stimulating cellular regeneration and reducing pain.

Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy can address pain and soft tissue damage resulting from sprains and strains. The high-energy sound waves stimulate the body's natural healing response, breaking down scar tissue, reducing inflammation, and promoting the growth of new blood vessels for long-term pain relief.
Symptoms of Sprains & Strains
The symptoms of sprains and strains can vary depending on the severity of the injury. Common symptoms include:
- Pain in the injured area
- Swelling or bruising
- Muscle weakness or tenderness
- Limited range of motion
- Difficulty bearing weight on the injured area
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s crucial to seek chiropractic care early to prevent the injury from worsening. At DeCrescenzo Chiropractic, we provide a thorough evaluation and develop a personalized treatment plan to promote healing and prevent further damage, empowering you to take control of your recovery.

Nice office: furniture like someone’s living room! Very clean and no dust anywhere.
Courteous staff. Dr Annie G was also very cordial and open for questions and did a thorough job of questioning me about details of reason for my visit.
This was followed by a careful exam of my back by deep palpation and then a minor adjustment of my L hip.
The visit concluded with an EMG (electric pads treatment) of my upper shoulders by her medical assistant for 10 minutes which was a bit surreal because it felt like a massage but no one was pressing anything. It felt very good basically once I got used to it.
Doctor Annie G took a moment to say goodbye and her receptionist said they were faxing her recommendations for X-rays to my primary care MD so the price of these X-rays would be covered by my insurance. Thoughtful.
I was billed $50 for first visit since it was not covered by my insurance or Medicare.
My primary insurance is Tri-care since I’m retired military and I was disappointed it was not accepted. When I looked into it, it would not have covered a first visit anyway though.
I guess I will just have to see how my secondary insurer Medicare handles these visits.
But otherwise, I was highly satisfied and I want to continue my care here.

So it’s been 2 months of treatment now. I am now down to every 2 weeks. The problems with my neck are much improved. My lower back still bothers me but it isn’t every day any more and overall it’s improved so I can walk more comfortably. I am continuing my visits and although the doctor urged me to come in anytime I was having a bad day and she would squeeze me in! This has not been necessary but I appreciated her telling me that.
Medicare is covering my visits except for a small Co-pay. I continue to highly recommend Decrecenso Chiropractic and Dr Annie G and her assistants and staff to anyone who has pain issues with their neck or lower back similar to mine.
Beautiful, very Clean and a very comfortable setting . I’m going to miss everyone there and I definitely would Recommend them to everyone I definitely give them a Five 🌟
Review. Thank you for your Services.
