REDWOOD, Calif., Jan. 24, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Awender Chiropractic of Redwood City, California, has kick-started a campaign to raise awareness about the full array of chiropractic and wellness services that are provided by Dr. Joseph E. Awender II and his team. The practice not only offers a comprehensive array of chiropractic services, but it offers massage therapy, nutritional counseling, weight loss assistance and more. "When new patients visit us for the first time, they are often surprised to learn that we offer far more than chiropractic services," said Dr. Awender. "Our goal in 2016 is to make local residents aware that we are here to assist them in achieving all-around health and well-being," he added.

Awender Chiropractic's services primarily revolve around chiropractic care, which the doctor and his team promote for their ability to treat chronic pain, muscle strain, joint discomfort and a variety of illnesses and conditions, including migraines and sciatica. Chiropractic services offered by the clinic include spinal decompression, which uses state-of-the-art technology to gently stretch the spine, which alleviates pressure from discs and promotes healing. The doctor and his team are also available to perform chiropractic adjustments, and such treatments are customized to address patients' individual needs and concerns.

The practice also offers massage therapy, which encompasses many types of massage. The type of massage that is used varies depending on a patient's specific needs and goals. Cold laser therapy is also offered, and it uses cold lasers that penetrate deep to interact with damaged cells. The process helps to heal those cells. When used in conjunction with other services that are offered by the practice, cold laser therapy can make a major difference and can help speed up the healing process. Awender Chiropractic also offers mechanical traction, which reduces pressure on parts of the body to increase blood flow as well as the flow of nutrients.

"The various services that we offer are designed to complement one another," said Dr. Awender. "When a patient visits us for the first time, we have a consultation and perform an examination to determine their main concerns. From there, we customize a plan that relieves their pain and, ultimately, brings them back to full wellness." Indeed, the clinic has a three-phase approach that includes an initial relief care phase that typically spans four to 12 weeks and includes two to three visits per week; a corrective phase that spans six to 24 months and includes four to eight visits per month; and a wellness care phase, which is essentially maintenance and includes periodic adjustments that keep future issues at bay. 

The doctor and his team hope that their new efforts to raise awareness about their services attracts newcomers to the practice. "We'd like nothing better than to help the residents of Redwood City achieve wellness this year," said the doctor.
