Pregnant? The Benefits Of Chiropractic Care For You And Your Baby

Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy


Over the last eighteen years, I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of future moms get through their pregnancy with natural chiropractic care.  Not only did I help with all five of my children, but I had the unique opportunity to work with an OB/GYN who recommended chiropractic to all of his patients.  Here in Monrovia, we have an active women's exercise class just for pregnant moms.  Because I was able to help the instructor, we have received several referrals from her over the years.
Pregnancy is a memorable and significant time in a woman’s life.  Emotional ups and downs, fatigue and a body that seems to change overnight are all parts of the wonder of pregnancy.  Though pregnancy offers plenty of opportunities for joy and excitement, it also comes with its fair share of aches and pains.  Gentle chiropractic care during pregnancy can help alleviate many of the less pleasant aspects of a changing body and help moms-to-be enjoy a more peaceful, pain-free pregnancy.
We have all witnessed that special glow that an expecting mother seems to radiate.  Pregnancy is a special time in a woman’s life, and there is much anticipation and happy moments associated with pregnancy that help contribute to that glow.  Unfortunately, pregnancy can wreak havoc on a woman’s body in countless ways, and aches, pains, nausea, fatigue and weariness can be par for the course.  The good news is that chiropractic care during pregnancy can help alleviate many of pregnancy’s less enjoyable symptoms, such as:
  • Morning sickness
  • Aching back
  • Sciatica pain
  • Neck and shoulder pain
  • Pelvic and postural problems due to baby’s growth

Chiropractic care is safe, proven, drug-free relief for moms-to-be!
Chiropractors are specially trained to treat and care for pregnant women.  We understand the unique physical needs many women encounter, whether it is their first pregnancy, or their fourth.  The human female was specially designed to accommodate a growing baby, and we help assist Mother Nature as she works her magic and transforms the bodies of both mother and child.  We know that the changes of pregnancy can have unpleasant side-effects, and we offer gentle, safe and reliable chiropractic adjustments that can relieve pain, improve posture, reduce labor and delivery time and even help prevent a Cesarean section!
There is chiropractic care especially for expectant mothers
Our goal is to partner with you in life-long care of your spine, and we offer help and service through every season of life.  Pregnancy, especially, is a time during which changes happen quickly and back, neck and sciatic nerve pain are common.  Chiropractic care can be specifically tailored to the unique needs of pregnant woman, and we offer many tailored treatments and options that customize care for our expectant patients:
  • Adjustable treatment tables to ensure comfort and safety.
  • Specialized adjustment procedures that protect the abdomen while targeting sore areas.
  • Soothing and gentle massage that relieve stress and promotes relaxation.
  • Spinal care after birth to help new moms feel their best.
Chiropractic care during pregnancy can help expectant moms to eliminate many common pregnancy complaints, from morning sickness to back pain.  Though chiropractic care may seem to deal only with the spine, the truth is that spinal manipulation impacts the health of the entire body.  Seeking chiropractic care during pregnancy is a proven and safe way to help make those nine months as enjoyable as possible.
Call our office today to find out more about chiropractic care during pregnancy and ways that we can help you feel your best, both before and after baby’s arrival.  (626) 256-3422.  Most insurance plans are accepted.

The Top 5 Medical Mistakes Made After A Car Accident And How To Avoid Them.

ATTENTION: Talk to an experienced attorney and/or chiropractor about your recent auto accident now. (626) 256-3422.

You’re in pain. Your car is a mess. You can’t work. You can’t take care of your family. A car accident right now is the last thing you need. Who do you trust? Everyone seems to know an attorney for you to see. The adjuster for the other insurance company is very nice but wants to record you. You have a lot of questions and this isn’t the time to make a mistake. You want to get better, get your car fixed and get back to your life as soon as possible.

How do I know this? I’ve helped over 10,000 auto accident patients in the last eighteen years steer through the rocky waters of personal injury and med-legal problems. Rest assured, with the right advice from the right people, you will get through this.

But you don’t know me and this isn’t the time to take a chance on the wrong doctor. That is why I recommend that you do your research. Google my name, David M. Salse, DC or go to MonroviaChiropractic.com/blog and look for “Real Chiropractor/Real Reviews”. There you will find a compilation of reviews about me from around the web.

Patients tell me they didn’t want to come in because they didn’t want a medical bill. There are several ways to get your medical care without spending a penny. Many are surprised to find out that their auto insurance may cover the entire cost for treatment through what is called Med-Pay. In addition, the insurance company of the person that hit you will take care of the medical expenses. Medical insurance also covers chiropractic care and finally, an attorneys lien means your chiropractor agrees to wait for payment from the attorney when the case settles.

The longer one waits to get treated, the longer it takes to recover. In addition, the third party insurance company (the insurance of the people who hit you) love when you don’t go to the doctor right away. I have seen them use that against patients when it comes time to settle or even to accept liability.

The top five medical mistakes patient make when involved in a car accident:

1. Seeing the wrong type of doctor. Auto accident injuries must be treated correctly. Many physicians don’t know how to manage personal injury treatment or the case. They do not want to get involved in depositions or called into court to testify as an expert witness on your behalf. Most do not know about Colossus or how to write a med-legal report. Treating with the wrong doctor could potentially ruin your med-legal case.

2. Getting the wrong treatment. Unfortunately, many medical doctors will prescribe pain killers and muscle relaxants without prescribing natural chiropractic care or physical therapy. The medication, does in fact help with the pain, but it only masks the symptoms. Medication does nothing to aid in correcting the loss of the cervical curve due to spasms, or to address the scar tissue and adhesions in the muscle or to consider the long-terms affects of neuromusculoskeletal injury in years to come.

3. The six most common words in my office, “I Thought It Would Go Away”. Whether you have mild or major pain.  One of the biggest mistakes patients make after an auto accident is waiting to see if the pain will go away. Left unchecked, misaligned vertebrae may cause decades of poor health.  It is extremely important to at least get checked by a chiropractor. Not only can a chiropractor help you now, your investment in care may help avoid health problems in the future.   Sometimes patients feel fine immediately after an accident. Many times this is because of the body’s “fight or flight” mechanism that produces adrenaline. However, when the adrenaline wears down, the pain can come on days or weeks following an accident. Even if you have no pain, it is important to at least get checked to make sure your spine was not traumatized without you knowing it. Even if I get injured, I can’t check my own back and I will see a chiropractor to make sure my alignment is proper.

4. Getting the wrong or incomplete diagnosis. Your ER or HMO doctor has given you a diagnosis of muscle strain. Did he or she take an x-ray? Did they palpate your spine for misalignments (subluxations)? Did they do a neurological, orthopedic and chiropractic exam on you? Did they even touch you? A good chiropractor will not only be looking for muscle strain, but also conditions like traumatic carpal tunnel syndrome, acute TMJ, double crush neuropathy, radiculitis, sciatica, cervicogenic headaches and many more.

5. Treating with a new or inexperienced chiropractor. Not all chiropractors are the same. Some specialize in pediatrics while others specialize in nutrition or sports injuries. Having a seasoned veteran personal injury chiropractor on your side will not only insure you are getting the experienced treatment, you can rest assured that your chiropractor will confidently testify on your behalf if need be.

“For years I ignored my back pain until it got so bad that I could barely walk! By ignoring my pain and always trying to be the do-it-all person that I tend to be, I actually made my problem worse and found that I had 2 bulging disks which were the cause of my daily pain! Dr Salse has been very patient and thorough in helping me get the treatment and therapy I need to get me where I want to be. I am eternally grateful to Dr. Salse for helping me, in a sense, get my life back! Looking back now I dont know why I waited as long as I did and I would recommend Dr. Salse in a heartbeat to anyone who is sufferering from any kind of back pain!”

By P.L.

“Dr. Salse is an amazing chiropractic doctor! i have had backpains for the last 10 years, since i was child, and within a short period, Dr. Salse has made the pain disappear. He analyzed my case very carefully and tried to gain as much information and knowledge as he could. Once he did that, he treated me in a specialized manner, and does everything he can to make sure my therapy is going in the right direction. He recommends proper stretches, diet and excercise and always makes my visit pleasant with his wonderful personality! I recommend him all the way!”

By P.J.

“I was recently visiting in California. I guess I played too much
golf I injured my back. Dr. Salse treated me for my back
problem. My back was much improved after a few treatments.
I had no problem sitting six hours in a plane when I returned home.
I strongly recommend Dr. Salse to anyone who might have a
back problem.”

By Daniel
“Hello everyone, I'm an actual patient of Dr. David Salse in Monrovia, and i just wanted to let everyone in on the key to a healthy active lifestyle and thats a healthy spine, our spines' are one of the most amazing things of our bodies because they connect pretty much all of our muscles, nerves, and even our brain. Anyhoot, to make a long story short, thanks to Dr. David Salse and his staff im well on my way to trying to correct my condition.......With continual adjustments and more exercise, along with a healthier diet, hopefully I should be able to do everything that i was doing prior to my accident....I owe it all to you, Dr. Salse, thank you very much for your compassion and generous care!!!
Dont hesitate, if you even a little gimpy, dont risk further danger to your spine, and give Dr. Salse an opportunity to work his magic, and get you started on your way to a healthier lifestyle with his gentle care!!”

By Tracy
“Dr. Salse knows what he is doing and is interested in doing what he can to make people better as fast as possible. He is not interested in creating a perpetual visit regimen. Such a rare trait... and so welcome! I have had lower back trouble for some time now... at least a few years. I also, working at my computer a lot, have had some tightness in my shoulders.  Recently, my lower back had gotten to the point where I could not stand for long without it hurting. He adjusted it and it felt noticeably better the same day. On top of that he gave me some exercises to do so I could continue to improve on my own and benefit from my visits as much as possible.  While we were addressing my lower back, we also talked about my shoulders and neck. He adjusted those and we discussed exercises to do (minor ones) to help matters on that front too.  If you are considering seeing a chiropractor in the Monrovia area, I honestly would look no further than Dr. Salse.”
By Braden
“I went for my very first chiropractor adjustment yesterday and it was fantastic. The staff was friendly and very professional. I've had chronic neck pain off and on for years. Yesterday evening before my visit my neck was stiff and I was experiencing limited movement in my neck. After my neck adjustment, I was able to sleep well last night, without pain and woke up with my neck muscles relaxed. I look forward to regular care with Dr. Salse and his staff.”
By Marcia
“I want to Thank Dr. Salse for giving me the right medical therapy after muscle spasms. He taught me some exercises that helped to fix my spasms. Due to the fact that my regular doctor didn't prescribe any medication or treatment. Therefor I went with Dr. Salse, and I would and am recommending anyone t go see him. I will determinately go again when I ever I have back pain. On the scale of 1 to 10, I would give a 10! Thank You very much!”

"CHIROPRACTICS IS WHAT DR. DAVID SALSE KNOWS BEST!!! I too was involved in a car accident, in which I got hit from behind and had a whiplash effect happen to my neck, not to mention some damage to my lower left back.... Fortunately, for me I was lucky enough to have Dr. David Salse examine me and he immediately after some intense weeks of nothing but adjustments, along with therapy, and a changed diet along with some exercises that Dr. David Salse recommended that i do, made me feel like a brand new person, in comparison to how i walked in his office in Monrovia!!!!

Thank you Dr. Salse.”

By TJ


Dr. David is the BEST! I had a really bad fall and hurt my neck. The pain went down my arm and my fingers were numb. I had physical therapy but I wasn't getting better. After treatment with Dr. David I felt so much better and now I am free of the pain. He cares about his patients and is good at what he does.”

Couldn't stand straight up I was referred to Dr. Salse by a co-worker that had noticed my change in mood and posture. I'm young but I was hunched over like an old man. I really liked the attention I received from Salse. He left no stone unturned. Using all the latest methods to pinpoint the problem areas, he created a plan to dramatically improve my posture. His staff is great, very helpful, and integral in healing process as well.

Why I am a chiropractor

Why I Am A Chiropractor

Because I honor the inborn potential of
everyone to be truly healthy.

Because I desire to help the newborn,
the aged, and those without hope.

Because I choose to care for the patient
with the disease, not the disease.

Because I wish to assist rather than intrude;
to free rather than control.

Because I seek to correct the cause,
not its effect.

Because I know doctors do not heal,
only the body can heal itself.

Because I have been called to serve others.

Because I want to make a difference.

Because everyday I get to witness miracles.

How to Seek Out the Best Chiropractors in the Los Angeles Area.



Los Angeles Chiropractors: How to Find the Best One for You

If you have back pain, neck pain, headaches or sciatica, finding the best Los Angeles area chiropractors is one of the most important things you can do to get much needed pain relief now. The information revealed in this article help you find the number one chiropractors in Los Angeles and will give you the most important questions you should be asking for your specific situation.
Do you sit at a desk in front of a computer all day?  Do you perform repetitive work activities?  Does one of your shoes wear out faster than the other?  When you look in the mirror do you have one shoulder higher than the other? Do you have chronic muscle pain that you’ve learned to live with?  Have you recently injured yourself?  If you answered yes to any of these questions, you should consult with a board qualified, experienced Los Angeles area chiropractor. Here are a few very important things to keep in mind and ask when looking for a chiropractor.
  • Check your prospective chiropractor out with the State Board of Chiropractic (http://www.chiro.ca.gov/) to see if the chiropractor you are considering has had any disciplinary action.
  • Do your homework.  A google search  (your city + chiropractor) will reveal patient ratings and reviews of the doctors in your area.
  • The best chiropractors join professional associations such as the ACA, ICA, and the CCA.
  • The insurance trap.  Just because a chiropractor is listed in your company insurance plan book, it doesn’t mean he or she is the best one for you.  Many of the best chiropractors have opted out of HMO insurance plans because of the limited care allowed and the control the insurance companies impose on the doctors.  The best chiropractors are here to help.  Many will offer cost-saving, surprisingly affordable cash plans or they will work with your PPO insurance plan.
  • Chiropractic is not a cure.  It helps the body heal itself.  Be careful of any chiropractor claiming to “heal” medical conditions.
  • Experience counts.  Don’t be afraid to ask your chiropractor how long he or she has been in practice.  Chiropractic manual adjusting is a learned skill.  Generally speaking, more experience means better adjustments.
  • The best chiropractors will train their patients on proper stretches and exercises and will consult with you on supplementation, diet, ergonomics and lifestyle changes.
  • Make sure your chiropractor has no problem referring to other specialists or working with any other doctors you happen to have.
  • Be sure to ask your friends and family for a referral.  The best way to find a top chiropractor is from another satisfied patient.
  • Seek out chiropractors that offer a free consultation.  The best chiropractors will meet with you to discuss your particular problem at no charge.
  • Some patients require very little treatment to help them get better fast.  Others, with chronic pain or acute injury may need more care.  If your chiropractor recommends a treatment plan of four to six weeks, you should start seeing results and significant improvement for non-complex problems within that time frame. A reevaluation should follow to determine if any further care is necessary.
  • Finally, don’t hesitate to get a second opinion.  A good chiropractor will be fine with you seeking a second opinion and may offer names of chiropractors in the area he or she trusts. 
As long as you stick to the guidelines above, finding the best Los Angeles chiropractors should not be a problem.
