I work at Synergy Family Wellness Centre for two incredible chiropractors: Dr Ed Osburn and Dr Karen Osburn. We have also brought in cold laser therapy to help soft tissue injuries as well. Lots of options out there! However, find a chiropractor willing to get a series of x-rays done before adjusting you. I see so many x-rays lately of patients who have undiagnosed structural issues that their chiropractor, MD and massage therapist should be aware of. We do x-rays in our office for most patients, so that we can rule out injuries and ensure it's absolutely safe for your adjustment.

not heat, my back guy says ice, and lay on floor and pull knees to chest hold. Works, I do however alternate with heat..feels good. Sierra Wellness Centre, they work with muscles and nerves rather than snapping bones...they have a massuse as well.
Lindsey S. replied:

Natacha S. replied:
Dr Mark Holzer is a great chiropractor! I have seen him many times over the years for various back injuries
Brad R. replied:
I've suffered for about 6 years with a subuxated tendon in my lower back. When it goes, it's crippling, and I have difficulty walking upright. As a result, I've seen both chiro and physio... so I'll share what I've learned to manage the pain. For me, the fastest relief from pain has been from physio. And unless things have changed lately, you can qualify for up to three physio treatments per year covered by Alberta Healthcare. In the meantime, alternate heat and cold. Heat travels on the same receptors as pain, so it will relieve some pain. Ice will help to reduce swelling (and as a result, pain). When you're not lying down, walk around; it will help loosen things up, and also helps to balance the pull of the muscles. I hope some of that helps!
Erin F. replied:
Dr Jamie or Dr Heather at Grenier Place Wellness are the best around. And Kandice is the most amazing massage therapist!! All 3 helped me through a back injury and ongoing neck problems.
Patricia G. replied:
Whenever I throw my back out, I go see Stephanie Weihmann-Korfman at St. Albert Acupuncture & Wellness. I've tried massage, chiro, and physio but hands down she has given me the longest term relief.
Any good sports injury physiotherapist recommendations for Edmonton?

After I blew out my shoulder and had to have it surgically repaired, I went to Grant Fedoruk at [Leading Edge Physio](http://leadingedgephysio.com/) in the Royal Glenora Club. I have been to a few different places for my shoulder and Leading Edge far and away was one of the best!! Grant does a spectacular job of getting to know you and what you need to get back to 100%. Plus, the staff there are all crazy friendly. I don't have enough good things to say about it there!
