Chiropractic is typically associated with “headache, neck pain, and back pain” relief, but the reality is that chiropractic can do so much more than just relieve pain – it can realign your spine to allow the brain to send unimpeded nerve impulses down the spinal cord, out through the nerves to the rest of your body. In other words, it helps restore optimal functionality to your central nervous system. Because your nervous system controls your whole body – organs, muscles, cognitive thought – restoring the proper functioning to it through chiropractic care can help with many neuromusculoskeletal problems, ranging from asthma to frozen shoulder to numbness and tingling. Advanced Biostructural Correction (ABC) TM is a state of the art form of chiropractic that addresses the underlying biostructural issues that many patients suffer from. Dr. Pulley is the only chiropractor in northeast Massachusetts who is certified to administer this gentle, effective treatment to her patients. She is currently Level II Certified.
Dr. Pulley has also received extensive training in acupuncture, and she is the only dually licensed chiropractor in the area. Acupuncture is another safe, gentle treatment that can help restore the proper flow of energy in your body, allowing for your body and its systems to return to balance and thus return to health. The National Institute of Health convened a consensus panel that has found acupuncture to be an effective treatment for postoperative and chemotherapy nausea and vomiting, nausea of pregnancy, and postoperative dental pain. The panel also found that acupuncture may be effective for many conditions including headache, menstrual cramps, fibromyalgia, asthma, carpal tunnel syndrome, low back pain, and stroke rehabilitation.
