Looking for conditions treated by a chiropractor in Goleta? At Swink Chiropractic, we treat a wide range of pain and mobility issues — from headaches and back pain to sciatica, sports injuries, and more. Once your body has healed, we also recommend periodic maintenance adjustments, typically 1–4 visits per month depending on your lifestyle and goals, to keep things running smoothly.
Looking for a chiropractor for headaches in Goleta? Chiropractic care can help relieve tension, migraine, and cluster headaches — which together account for about 95% of all headaches — by addressing spinal misalignments that contribute to them.
Common symptoms: frequent or constant head pain, pressure or tightness, nausea, sensitivity to light or sound.
How we can help: we identify and correct the underlying spinal misalignment often driving your headaches, rather than just treating the pain itself
Chiropractic care can relieve neck pain by correcting the spinal misalignments that often cause it.
Common causes: joint misalignments, spinal disc damage, ligament damage, muscle dysfunction — often in combination.
How we can help: left uncorrected, spinal misalignments put pressure on the nervous system (a "pinched nerve") and the imbalance worsens over time. We identify and correct the misalignment before it leads to further damage or accelerated wear.
You don't have to be a professional athlete to need shoulder pain relief. Overhead activities, painting, yard work, or a weekend spent as a human jungle gym for your kids can all leave your shoulder sore and stiff the next day.
Common causes: overuse, repetitive strain, poor posture.
How we can help: we identify what's driving your shoulder pain and provide targeted adjustments to relieve it and restore normal function.
Chiropractic care can relieve low back pain by correcting the spinal misalignments that often cause it.
Common causes: joint misalignments, spinal disc damage, ligament damage, muscle dysfunction — often in combination.
How we can help: as with neck pain, uncorrected spinal misalignments put pressure on the nervous system and worsen over time. We identify and correct the misalignment before it leads to further damage or accelerated wear.
Looking for chiropractic treatment for sciatica? Sciatica is pain in the lower back that radiates down one or both legs, and chiropractic adjustments can help relieve the nerve pressure that often causes it.
Common symptoms: dull, achy, sharp, or "pins and needles" pain; burning, numbness, or tingling sensations; intensity ranging from mild to severe, and frequency from occasional to constant.
How we can help: we assess the underlying cause of your sciatic nerve pain and provide adjustments to relieve the pressure driving it.
A pinched nerve happens when inflamed muscles or tendons put pressure on a nerve, causing pain or numbness — most commonly in the lower spine, wrists, neck, or legs.
Common causes: carpal tunnel, herniated disc, and other physical conditions.
How we can help: many pinched nerves resolve on their own, but if yours persists for more than a few days or is worsening despite at-home treatment, schedule an appointment with Swink Chiropractic. We'll help identify the underlying cause to keep it from happening again.
Sports can be demanding on your body, no matter what you play. We treat and help prevent injuries in the neck, back, shoulders, knees, and ankles.
Common causes: overuse, impact, repetitive strain during athletic activity.
How we can help: manual spinal adjustments to relieve pain and help your body function properly after injury
If you've injured your knee through trauma, an orthopedic doctor is your best first stop. But for knee pain without a specific injury, a chiropractor can help.
Common causes: misalignments in the spine, hip, knee, or ankle joints.
How we can help: not all chiropractors are trained to adjust extremities — Dr. Swink is, and can address the misalignments contributing to your knee pain directly
