At Total Chiropractic Care and Wellness, Medford chiropractor Dr.Todd Goldman has helped people achieve pain relief and better overall health for more than two decades. Using a holistic, drug-free approach, Dr. Goldman treats a wide range of conditions and advises patients on how to be proactive about their health.
How Chiropractic Care Improves Spinal Health
Your spinal cord is the network connecting your brain to every other part of your body. When your spine is correctly aligned, the nerves that originate in the spinal cord carry information from your brain effectively and efficiently. When the spinal cord is misaligned, the nerves can become compressed, unable to process information properly, and ultimately dysfunctional. Minor spinal misalignment may not have any symptoms now, but over time can cause painful and debilitating issues.
Chiropractic care improves spinal health with adjustments that align the spine correctly. Because the correct alignment of the spinal vertebrae is the foundation of good health, Dr. Goldman advises patients on good posture, assessing current posture, and suggesting exercises to improve it.
Total Chiropractic Care and Wellness
At Total Chiropractic Care and Wellness, every patient is treated as an individual. Dr. Goldman applies this individualized approach during consultations and evaluations, creating a customized care plan based on the patient’s needs. At our Medford office, he thoroughly examines each patient’s injuries, pain, illnesses, and other factors to outline and provide the most effective treatment plan.
He has trained extensively in spinal adjustment evaluations and procedures and has expertise in treating injuries resulting from automobile and other types of accidents. As a former competitive athlete, he has benefited from receiving chiropractic treatments himself and understands firsthand how much relief chiropractic treatment can give. He is the author of the book “Taking Control” and has a weekly podcast, “Back to Back.”

Car Accident Injury Chiropractic Treatments
Despite today’s extensive automotive safety regulations, even a minor fender bender can impact the body’s musculoskeletal alignment. Dr. Goldman specializes in treating automobile accident injuries, with more than two decades of experience in the field.
At Total Chiropractic Care and Wellness, we address post-accident symptoms and their root causes. We thoroughly examine each patient and work with them to determine the best course of action. Treatment may include some combination of spinal manipulation, physical therapy, trigger point therapy, muscle stimulation therapy, relaxation therapy, corrective exercises, lifestyle advice, and ergonomic advice. Our goal is to reduce your pain, increase your range of motion, and allow your body to heal from accident trauma.
Common Car Accident Injuries
Whiplash is the most common injury sustained in an automobile accident. This occurs when the neck and head snap forward and backward in rapid succession. Symptoms of whiplash include headaches, dizziness, and possibly vision or hearing issues. Spinal injuries like herniated or ruptured discs are also common. Other injuries include soft tissue trauma to muscles, tendons or ligaments; joint injuries, and concussions or other head injuries. While treating these injuries, we also address their symptoms: back, neck, shoulder, or chest pain; muscle spasms; headaches; blurred vision; dizziness, and nausea.
If you have been in an accident and are injured, we advise you to go to the hospital to be checked thoroughly for injuries that require urgent medical treatment. Once you have been released, follow up with us so we can help you reduce any pain and facilitate your healing process.
Contact Total Chiropractic Care and Wellness
Anyone can benefit from chiropractic treatment. Whether you’re dealing with a recent injury or chronic aches and pain, Total Chiropractic Care and Wellness can address the root cause and help you on the road to healing.
Even if you aren’t experiencing pain, we can conduct a posture checkup to uncover underlying issues that may become a problem later on. Minor subluxations can degenerate into serious spinal misalignments over time; we believe it’s better to prevent pain early than to fix it later.
