Dr. Passov Asks some important questions of interest to Calabasas residents - Chiropractor Calabasas Dr. Passov Asks...

How could chiropractic help a stomach problem?
Chiropractic works by locating and reducing areas of the spine compromising nerve communications between your brain and your body. If nerves to or from your stomach are irritated, your stomach won't work right. Chiropractors find the source of the interference, reduce it and allow your body to work as designed.
How long does it take to form a bone spur?
Many who begin chiropractic care think their problem happened "last week when you bent over funny." But pictures of the spine tell a different story. Chiropractors know it can take your body years to deposit the calcium necessary to form a bone spur. It's your body's response to stress due to gravity or joint malfunction. And chiropractic care can help.

Bodywork

As a complement to acupuncture and chiropractic, we incorporate various forms of bodywork techniques into our treatment programs. From neuromuscular re-education to myofascial release, our goal is to release muscular adhesions, decrease pain, and increase mobility.

In working with your body, we will make sure your muscles are working synergistically. This doesn't just happen on the treatment table. We will analyze your body, posture and muscular imbalances, and provide you with tools and corrections to take with you and use as part of your daily routine. If you haven't moved in a while, this might mean working on an exercise routine that is not only effective, but also fun and joyful. If you are used to moving, it might mean incorporating something new into your routine such as yoga, to increase your flexibility.

Myofascial Release

We'll find tender areas where muscles and connective tissue are producing pain and restricted movement and gently release it. read more»

Massage Therapy

We recommend massage in combination with your chiropractic care. While chiropractic focuses on the relationship between the spine and its impact on the nervous system, massage focuses on the 650 muscles of the body. Both disciplines work together to help keep the body in proper alignment, balance and function. read more»
