Poway Chiropractor Dr. Kip Rode of Rode Chiropractic

Dr. Kip Rode offers insight on how to reduce and prevent back pain during pregnancy with chiropractic care. Women do not have to suffer through uncomfortable back pain if preventative measures are taken.

Poway, July 20, 2007 — Pregnancy greatly increases a woman’s vulnerability to back problems during and after birth. Did you know that at least half of pregnant women experience back pain during pregnancy? Some studies suggest that these numbers are even higher.

Many women simply accept back pain as an unavoidable trade off in the creation of new life. However, Dr. Kip Rode, D.C., of Rode Chiropractic says that pregnant women do not have to take back pain “lying down.” Dr. Rode is an experienced chiropractor in Poway, CA who aims at increasing women’s awareness of the relationship between back pain and pregnancy. He said, “Women who are more educated are more likely to seek care and reduce back pain.”

Studies have proven that chiropractic care greatly reduces the amount of pain and discomfort throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. A study in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics in 1991 revealed that 84% of patients who received spinal manipulative therapy (chiropractic care) reported a decrease in back pain while pregnant. Another study reported in the book “Chiropractic Pediatrician” showed that regular chiropractic adjustments reduced average labor times by an average of 33%.

Dr. Rode said, “Women who have regular chiropractic treatment and are properly instructed about ways to reduce pain have a much easier, smoother child bearing experience. Also, women who have significant back pain during pregnancy are more likely to experience a longer period of pain in subsequent pregnancies. That’s why I really stress a preemptive approach, meaning get educated before your body begins to make its maternal changes.”

Dr. Rode strongly suggests contact with a local chiropractor who can give valuable guidance and care. Some other things that can be done to reduce strain on the back are sleeping on your side, maintaining good posture, eating and exercising properly, using a pregnancy pillow or support belt, and many more.

To learn more about this topic schedule a consultation with your local chiropractor. Dr. Kip Rode offers a discounted consultation for pregnant women or women who may become pregnant. Rode Chiropractic is located at 13248 Poway Road Suite B, Poway, CA. Also, visit Dr. Rode’s website at www.rodechiropractic.com for more information.

August 08 2008 (Press Release) — Did you know that according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is now the most common reported medical problem in the workplace?

According to Dr. Kip Kip Rode of Rode Chiropractic in Poway, CA, “Carpal Tunnel Syndrome accounts for nearly 60% of work related injuries. The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons estimate that Carpal Tunnel costs $27 billion annually in medical treatment and lost income!”

Carpal Tunnel affects the nerve function of the hand. Do you have any of the following symptoms? Aching of the hands and wrists, hands are numb and tingly, trouble holding objects, or less than normal hand strength?

If you said yes to any of the above, you might have symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. It is most common among women between the ages of 40 to 60, but affects men and women of all ages and occupations.

You do not need to suffer anymore. Dr. Kip Rode says, chiropractic care offers exciting opportunities to treat Carpal Tunnel Syndrome without the use of surgery. In the past, Americans received surgery to treat Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. A new study shows chiropractic to be equally effective to medical care, without the need for surgery!”

Dr. Kip Rode says “Increasingly patients are turning to chiropractic to treat Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Surgery should be the last resort, not the first. In 80% of the cases where surgery has been completed, the symptoms have returned within two years. This is why more and more American workers are seeking out chiropractic as their first line of defense against Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.”

Dr. Kip Rode offers a free consultation to anyone seeking treatment or diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Dr. Kip Kip Rode, D.C. is located at 13248 Poway Road, Poway, CA 98075. He can be reached by telephone at 858-391-1372

Press Release Summary = Dr. Kip Rode of Rode Chiropractic helps golfers improve their golf game this summer. Learn how chiropractic care can help golfers lower their score and stay injury free.

Dr. Kip Rode of Rode Chiropractic is helping golf lovers to stay on the green longer. “All too often I see golfers end up taking pain killers or having to stop playing all together, just because of back pain from golf. Recently chiropractic treatment has really caught on as an excellent way to alleviate those on-the-green pains,” says Dr. Rode.

“The problems occur from all those repetitive golf swings. Since chiropractic is the science of the spine, we are in a good position to help golfers understand the correct way to take care of their bodies while still enjoying lots of golf,” says Dr. Rode.

Professional golfers are well aware of the benefits that chiropractic care can provide. A recent study reported that up to 85 percent of injuries on the PGA Tour and Senior Tour relate to the spine. Between 70 to 75 percent of these golfers receive chiropractic care regularly. Amateur golfers can especially benefit from chiropractic care. There is approximately 25 to 30 million amateur golfers in America. Dr. Rode says, “It’s my goal to educate golfers that chiropractic can really benefit them and keep them playing pain free.”

Dr. Rode says, “Not only can chiropractors most effectively treat acute and chronic back injuries caused by golf, but can also help them prevent injuries. Some important things they should be doing are stretching before and after golfing, keeping hydrated, shortening your back swing, and using correct posture and stance.”

Dr. Rode invites any golfer who is interested in improving their game and saving their back to schedule a complimentary office visit. “This way they can see how chiropractic might enhance their golf game.”

Poway, CA, March 29, 2006 –(PR.com)– Finally, a solution for your chronic back pain. So says Dr. Kip Rode, a chiropractor from Poway, CA who has treated over 600 patients with back pain. “We get a lot of patients who were in chronic pain and told by their primary care physician that they really had no other option other than surgery. In many cases, we have been able to get these patients fully recovered and out of pain, without needles, drugs, or surgery. Needless to say, they’re the ones very excited about chiropractic!”

Dr. Kip Rode, who has been helping chronic back pain sufferers ever since he graduated from Los Angeles College of Chiropractic (Whittier, CA) in 1999 says, “People think chiropractic is new. But it’s not. Records show that spinal manipulation can be traced back to the time of Hippocrates. Studies show that 80% of the American population will suffer back pain at some point. So this is a big problem and chiropractic offers a solution that has been around for thousands of years.”

Dr. Rode says that in recent years the medical community has embraced chiropractic because it offers treatment without the use of drugs or surgery. “In treating low back slipped discs, most experts agree that conservative care should be tried before surgery is considered. That’s what chiropractic offers. It has a long history of effectively stopping back, neck, and shoulder pain yet doesn’t require a trip to the hospital or recovery time.”

Dr. Kip Rode offers consultation free of charge to anyone looking into chiropractic and how it might help them. “This way they can make an informed decision, and it doesn’t cost them anything.”

People who have been suffering from headeaches all their lives can now find relief.

Poway, CA (PRWEB) March 18, 2006 — According to the American Chiropractic Association, nine out of ten Americans suffer from headaches. Dr. Kip Rode, a local Poway, CA chiropractor, is using chiropractic to successfully stop migraine headaches in hundreds of patients who previously had little help from traditional medicine.

“Many of my patients felt like there was no hope for them,” says Dr. Rode. “There is a large segment of our population who suffer silently with headache pain almost every day. They often turn to pain killers to temporarily stop the pain. But drugs only provide short term relief, it doesn’t fix the core problem at hand. We are using chiropractic to fix the source of the migraines and we are having excellent results.”

Is there evidence that chiropractic can stop headache pain? New research shows that spinal manipulation - the primary form of care provided by doctors of chiropractic - may be an effective treatment option for tension headaches and headaches that originate in the neck. A report released in 2001 by researchers at the Duke University Evidence-Based Practice Center in Durham, NC, found that spinal manipulation resulted in almost immediate improvement for those headaches that originate in the neck, and had significantly fewer side effects and longer-lasting relief of tension-type headache than a commonly prescribed medication.

Dr. Rode says that in recent years the medical community has embraced chiropractic because it offers treatment without the use of drugs or surgery. “In treating headache pain, most experts agree that conservative care should be tried before more invasive treatments are considered. That’s what chiropractic offers. It has a long history of effectively stopping pain yet doesn’t require the use of prescription or over the counter painkillers that can have negative consequences. Chiropractic is all-natural and frequently is CAre affordable than other options. We say why suffer when you don’t have to? We invite people to come on down and explore if chiropractic might work for them.”

Dr. Kip Rode offers his consultation free of charge to anyone looking into chiropractic and how it might help them. “This way they can make an informed decision, and it doesn’t cost them anything.” Dr. Kip Rode, D.C. is located at 13248 Poway Road Suite B, Poway, CA 92064.

Poway, CA, June 18, 2007 –(PR.com)– As the baby boomer generation approaches retirement age, they have begun experiencing many of the ailments typically associated with aging. Common complaints are stiffness and aches and pains of various sorts.

According to Dr. Rode, it doesn’t have to be this way. “I get many patients who come to me in pain and one of their most frequent complaints is that their pain makes them feel old. They just naturally assume that as they age, they are going to automatically start having these problems.” Pain that is associated with aging can actually be attributed to misalignments in their spine. A common misconception is that soreness and aches in the muscle are only a muscular problem and that stretching will make it go away. What happens is nerves from the spine are pinched and that decreases or interrupts the nerve flow to the muscles causing the aches and pains.

Dr. Rode recommends chiropractic care to reduce and eliminate the pressure on the nerves thus getting rid of the aches and pains. He explains, “Often patients will have more energy, more stamina and are able to do things that they had mistakenly believed they couldn’t do any more. They tell me they feel several years younger now that they are pain free and can enjoy life more fully.”

Dr. Rode invites people who think that chiropractic may help them to call for a free consultation. He is located at 13248 Poway Rd. STE B, Poway, CA 92064 and can be reached by phone at 858-391-1372. His website address is www.RodeChiropractic.com

A lot of people tell me about their pains and describe them as muscle pain and feel that massage or stretching can just solve the problem. Yet when they do this this problem keeps coming back. I want to shed some light on what is going on. If you haven’t been to the gym in a long time and exercise a lot you are going to have sore muscles the next couple days and then it should go away. I you have sore or tight and achy muscles that don’t seem the get better than some else is probably going on. People commonly associate nerve involvement with sharp shooting pains or numbness and tingling. Nerve involvement can also manifest as muscle aches and tightness that just doesn’t get better. But since people feel it in their muscles they naturally conclude it is a muscle problem. When a nerve is pinched or there is pressure on it can cause many symptoms. Naturally is you have any sort of problem of this nature and want to get something done about it I would invite you to come in for an evaluation you can find out more information at www.poway-chiropractic.com or www.rodechiropractic.com

Most people think of pain as an annoyance. Pain actually serves a very useful purpose. It is telling you that something is wrong and needs fixing or correction. However what most people do today is to take a pain pill that will make the pain go away. This is actually a bad idea because once the pain is gone then you are much more likely to do something which will aggravate your condition. So what you need to do is figure out why you are having you pain. Was it the first time in a while that you went to the gym and you now have sore muscles. Well that should go away in a day or two. Is it something that has been going on for months or even years? Then that definitely warrants further investigation. What happens is you may have some degeneration going on in your spine that is affecting the nerves going to your muscles. This should not be ignored. Degeneration in the spine is a progressive condition that if not stopped can lead to permanent decrease in space for the nerves to come out of the spine and greatly increases the chance of having problems now and in the future. If you are having problems, aches pains and they have been going on a long time please visit my website atwww.Poway-Chiropractic.com or www.RodeChiropractic.com

A lot of times patients and people I know will explain how they “pop” their own back or neck by stretching their bodies in an extreme way. They want to know if this is similar to what I do. I have to tell them that it is not. The sound they hear is just like the sound when you crack you knuckles but it is different than what I do as a chiropractor.
When I adjust them I am moving the bone that has been stuck or fixated for a long period of time and doesn’t move freely. Since a poping sound occurs frequently when I make an adjustment they naturally equate the two but there really is a difference. When a patient moves their neck or back and a sound occurs it is from a joint that is already moving well on it own and not the one causing the problems. This is really an important point that many people don’t understand. So there really is a big difference between what I do and what a person thinks they do on their own.
Also cracking your knuckles does not cause your joints to grow that was just story your parents told you to get you to stop doing it because the sound annoyed them.  I am located on 13248 Poway Road Ste B 858 391-1372

Stretching is very important for your body. I want you to think just a moment about what a dog or cat does when they wake up from sleep. They stretch their whole body and then go about their business. But people commonly role out of bed after hitting the alarm button, take a show and get dressed for work. What you really want to do after just waking up is to slowly stretch your back and your neck. By taking your time and stretching each morning you can help prevent your spine from going out of alignment during the day.

Maintaining Balance is the Key to a Healthy Spine

What do I mean by balance?
What I mean is that when you carry something with your right hand you should periodically carry something in your left hand. This helps balance the load on your spine. One problem women have is that they always carry their purse on one shoulder and not the other. Over time this will cause a misalignment in their spine. So you need to shift your purse to the other shoulder. This is also true when carrying a new born child around. Typically the mother or father will always hold the child on one side. Usually their stronger hand and arm. But you really need to hold the child in the other side as well. Children who have book bags should also wear both shoulder straps rather than carry the book bag on one shoulder. Balancing the load on your spine is important to keeping it aligned.

Welcome Back
Believe it or not but there are good ways to sleep on a bed and ways that will actually aggravate your condition. The best way to sleep on a bed it to lie flat on your back, the second best is on your side and the worst is on your stomach. The reason why laying on your stomach is bad is because you have to turn your head either to the left or to the right so you can breath, and this will actually cause neck problems. Laying on your side is OK if you support your head so that your spine is straight and not tilted up by a big pillow. You also want to put a pillow in between your legs to help support your hips otherwise a you spine might twist. Finally laying on you back is the best because you can evenly support your neck and back. It is best for you neck if you have your head lie flat on the bed, and then roll up a hand rag or small hand towel just enough to support your neck while letting your head lie on the bed. If you have a back condition put some pillows under your knees and this takes pressure off your back.

Here is a helpful and useful tip on how to prevent back pain. Many men typically keep their wallet in their back pocket of their pants. This is a bad location because when you sit for long periods of time whether driving, sitting in a chair in an office you are actually causing your spine and hips to get misaligned. The typical wallet can be one to two inches in width. So imagine siting on a two inch pad for long periods of time. It will naturally begin causing misalignments in your hips and spine. So what I always tell my patients is to keep their wallet in their front pocket. This prevents pelvic unleveling from the wallet. This simple habit can prevent the occurrence of back and hip pain.

Don’t Do This Do This Instead

One of the most common ways my patients have hurt their back is by picking up something heavy and then as the lift they twist at the same time. For instance you are moving a heavy item from the ground to the top of a table and it is just easier to twist and put it on the table than to properly position yourself. This is a really excellent way of damaging the disks in your spine. You see the lower back is really not designed to twist or rotate much. It is really designed to go up and down. So what you want to do when you lift up a large heavy item is lift it straight up and then move your body by moving your feet rather than twisting. So Don’t lift and twist Do lift and shuffle or move your feet to properly position your body.  I am located on 13248 Poway Road Ste B 858 391-1372.  For more information go to Rode Chiropractic or Poway Chiropractic or Press Release
