Whether you’ve sustained an injury due to repetitive motion, heavy lifting, or an accident, DeCrescenzo Chiropractic offers personalized chiropractic treatments that promote healing and relieve pain.

Common Work Injuries Treated with Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is effective for a wide range of work-related injuries. Some of the most common injuries we treat include:
- Back Injuries: Lifting heavy objects or poor posture can strain the muscles and ligaments in the back, leading to pain and stiffness.
- Repetitive Strain Injuries: Repeated motions, such as typing or assembly line work, can cause strain on muscles and tendons, leading to conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or tendonitis.
- Neck Pain: Poor ergonomics or sudden injuries, such as falls, can result in neck pain and reduced mobility.
- Joint Injuries: Workers may experience knee, shoulder, or other joint injuries due to accidents or overexertion.

Spinal Manipulation
After a work injury, spinal manipulation can be crucial for realigning the spine and reducing pain. This technique helps restore proper alignment of vertebrae, reducing nerve irritation and promoting healing.

Decompression
Decompression therapy can alleviate pressure on spinal discs that may have been injured on the job. By gently stretching the spine, this technique creates negative pressure within the discs, promoting healing and reducing pain.

Class IV Hot Laser Therapy
Class IV Hot Laser Therapy can be instrumental in reducing inflammation and promoting healing after a work injury. The laser energy penetrates deep into tissues, increasing blood circulation and stimulating cellular regeneration to accelerate the body's natural healing process.

Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy can address pain and soft tissue damage resulting from a work injury. The high-energy sound waves used in this therapy 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.

Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy can help manage pain and inflammation associated with a work injury. It uses low-level laser energy to stimulate cellular activity and reduce pain, providing relief and promoting healing.

Electro Muscle Stimulation
Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) can be used to strengthen muscles weakened or injured in a work-related incident. By stimulating muscle contractions, EMS helps to restore muscle function, improve stability, and reduce pain.

Intersegmental Traction
Intersegmental traction can help reduce pain and improve mobility after a work injury. This therapy gently stretches the spine, reducing pressure on discs and nerves, which can be particularly beneficial for those experiencing back or neck pain.

Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy can be beneficial in reducing pain and inflammation after a work injury. The sound waves generate deep heat within the tissues, increasing blood circulation, relaxing muscles, and promoting healing.
Symptoms of Work Injuries
Work injuries can present in different ways depending on the type and severity of the injury. Common symptoms include:
- Back pain or stiffness
- Neck pain or reduced range of motion
- Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs
- Muscle weakness or tenderness
- Joint pain or swelling
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to seek professional care to prevent the injury from worsening. At DeCrescenzo Chiropractic, we provide a thorough evaluation and create a customized treatment plan to help you recover.

So my story:
I had a bad car accident back in 2017 that fractured my left wrist, one of my ribs, my neck seized up and couldent move it to the left, and did something to my lower back where later on it went out where it was consistently going out of alignment. Think of you back as an upside down T, as the ( --- ) is the hips/waist and the ( | ) as the spine. My Spine is a (《 ) and my hips is ( / ), higher on one side then the other. This has caused excessive pain at some points. 8 years later I'm still going for monthly maintenance to keep everything in check. My neck can move after a few treatments and I still get the "rice crispy cereal popping sound" but I don't think that'll ever go away but it's jot as loud and I can move my neck. My lower back is the stubborn problem at this point.
They started doing the shockwave therapy maybe a few years ago at this point and I was a difficult patient to get to try it with all the adjustments and the money I was spending when my back would flare up and really be out of alignment and sometimes have 3 visits a week. I gave in and started the shockwave which made them so happy, and myself after. It was night an day difference. Now I know if I have a flairup that option is there. Due to how well the shockwave treatment works, I have not had many flairups because it works. It breaks down the swelling, inflammation, scar tissue, increases blood flow...etc. My muscles are not pulling my waist as tight in one direction anymore.
Now my most recent issue which one would think why the Chiropractor for this. I woke up the other week and couldent walk on my foot. Thought I stepped wrong at work and pulled a muscle. Over a few days it swelled and got worse. I ended up calling the office to get in for Shockwave knowing it helped my back before. I had, and have, Edema in my right foot, ankle, and calf. It was swollen. Like a balloon. They did the shock and Dr Chris told me to still see my primary which I did and found the reason for it and treating that as well. The Shockwave therapy REMOVED AND DRAINED THE EDEMA!!!! It's not a one time fix due to the cause of the Edema but just had another treatment and still a few more to go. The progress is amazing. I'll upload the before and after pic and you can determine yourself. It's just WOW!
Like i said, I love the treatment, the staff, and I'll continue to come here because if it wasn't for them, I'd be falling apart more then I am now. They keep me tuned up.
(Sorry the after pic of my un swollen foot doesn't show much of the ankle)
You’re not just another appointment on their schedule—they make you feel seen, heard, and cared for. After experiencing the level of care here, I can confidently say I will never go to another chiropractic office again. This team has set the bar incredibly high, and I’m so grateful to have found them.
