Whether you’re suffering from musculoskeletal issues, or you’re simply looking to keep your spine in great shape, McCracken Chiropractic is here to help.
We offer spinal and postural screenings to our patients in Calhoun and surrounding areas, intending to stop problems before they affect our patients’ quality of life.
If you’re just getting started with chiropractic care or if you’ve worked with a chiropractor before, we’d love to evaluate your spine and create a personalized wellness plan for your spinal care needs.
Why do spinal and postural screenings matter?
In today’s world, it is not uncommon to practice poor postural habits, from hunching over to view the smartphone to sitting for long periods without stretching. Poor posture can lead to a spinal misalignment and the development of these symptoms:
Pins and needles sensation, tingling, or numbness in the upper or lower extremities
Sciatic nerve pain
Neck, shoulder, arm, or back pain
Herniated disc
Strain or sprains
Muscle fatigue
Headaches
Often, the above problems can stray your spine from its normal, healthy position as well as damage it. Fortunately, we can identify the root cause of the problem and treat your postural issues with chiropractic care.
What to Expect from Our Chiropractic Clinic
When you come into our clinic for a spinal and postural screening, we’ll go over your health history and any issues you are dealing with that may be triggering your symptoms.
Our chiropractor will examine your spine, paying special attention to areas that have been causing you pain or discomfort. He’ll also evaluate your posture to see if the way you sit or walk could be contributing to any spinal problems. After our chiropractor evaluates your spine, you’ll work together to create a custom wellness plan that makes sense for your needs.
We understand that each of our patients is an individual, and it’s important to us to create unique wellness plans for each patient. If you have any questions about your care, we encourage you to ask. We believe that you should be in control of your health and wellness goals, and we’re here to help you meet those goals in an efficient and healthy way.

Spinal and postural screenings are a proactive approach to identifying potential health issues before they manifest into painful symptoms. By assessing the alignment of the spine and the body's overall posture, chiropractors can detect subtle imbalances that, if left unaddressed, can lead to chronic pain, nerve compression, and reduced mobility.
These screenings are particularly beneficial for individuals who spend long hours sitting, engage in repetitive physical activities, or have experienced injuries. Early detection through these assessments allows for targeted interventions, such as chiropractic adjustments and personalized exercise programs, to correct misalignments and prevent the escalation of more serious conditions like herniated discs or sciatica.
Common Symptoms of Poor Posture and Spinal Misalignment
Poor posture and spinal misalignments can manifest in a variety of uncomfortable and sometimes debilitating symptoms. These often include persistent neck, shoulder, and back pain, which can radiate to other parts of the body. Sensations like pins and needles, tingling, or numbness in the extremities are also common indicators of nerve compression caused by spinal issues.
Beyond pain and sensory disturbances, individuals may experience muscle fatigue, headaches, and an increased susceptibility to strains and sprains. In more severe cases, these misalignments can contribute to conditions like sciatica and even herniated discs, significantly impacting one's quality of life and ability to perform daily activities.
