Chest Pain

At FreeForm Chiropractic, we understand that chest pain is a worrying and uncomfortable experience. While several medical conditions can cause chest pain, musculoskeletal issues are often the underlying cause of ongoing chest pain. This is when chiropractic care can be an effective solution for treating and preventing chest pain.

Causes of chest pain

Costo-chondritis

One common cause of chest pain is costochondritis, which is inflammation of the cartilage that connects the ribs to the breastbone. This condition can be caused by injury, strain, or poor posture. It can result in sharp pain, tenderness, and discomfort in the chest area. Chiropractic adjustments can help to alleviate this pain by realigning the joints and reducing inflammation.

Rib dysfunction

Another cause of chest pain is rib dysfunction. This occurs when the ribs become misaligned or restricted in movement, typically due to trauma or postural issues. Chiropractors can use various techniques to adjust the ribs and restore proper movement, which can relieve pain and discomfort.

Poor posture

Poor posture can also contribute to chest pain. Slouching or hunching forward puts pressure on the chest and can cause pain and discomfort. Chiropractic care can help improve your posture, which can alleviate chest pain and prevent it from recurring in the future.

Symptoms of chest pain

Chest pain can present itself in many forms, including:

Pressure or a squeezing sensation in the chest
A crushing or tearing feeling in the chest
Shortness of breath
Dizziness or lightheadedness
Nausea or vomiting

If you experience severe or persistent symptoms, seek medical attention immediately to rule out any serious medical conditions.
