Spinal Decompression Therapy in Daniel Island, SC

Could you imagine going through life every day with near-debilitating, chronic back pain? Back pain is one of the most common ailments in America - it's estimated that 8% of all adults, or 16 million people, suffer from chronic back pain in the U.S. every year. If you've never experienced a back injury or pain, be thankful. Chronic back pain affects every aspect of a person's life, from participating in sports to limitations with everyday activities, like cooking dinner. In fact, many people with chronic back pain can't even make a reliable living and put food on the table. Almost 83 million workdays are lost every year due to choric back pain.

Spinal Decompression Therapy Daniel Island, SC

The inability to work and provide isn't just a physical issue - it can become an emotional one too. Many people suffering from chronic back pain also suffer from depression and anxiety. Unfortunately, in the past, chronic back pain sufferers wanting to avoid addictive medications and invasive surgeries had few viable relief options. However, if you're suffering from a chronic back issue like sciatica, a pinched nerve, or a bulging disc, pain relief may be closer than you think.

Modern chiropractic care and, more specifically, a spinal decompression chiropractor in Daniel Island, SC, may be the long-term solution you need for chronic back pain.

A common misconception is that chiropractors only adjust your back and neck when, in fact, they treat the whole body with all-natural treatments. Here at Elite Healthcare, our doctors focus on your overall health, not just pain. We want to find and address the underlying causes of your symptoms. If you're unfamiliar with an integrative approach to medicine, this strategy may seem new. Our chiropractic care is less about putting a band-aid on the problem and more about finding a natural, long-term solution to your pain.

Fortunately, our experienced chiropractors provide the best in natural pain relief. Prescription and over-the-counter pain medications mask the symptoms you're experiencing versus getting to the cause of your pain. Pain is often the result of your spine being out of alignment, which leads to nerve issues. Once your spine is back in alignment, the nerves function correctly again.

Because our chiropractic center offers a combination of different therapies and non-surgical treatments, we provide a comprehensive approach to healing. Depending on the extent of your back problems, spinal decompression therapy may be the answer to your chronic pain problems.

Service Areas

Non-Invasive Treatment for Back Pain

Invasive procedures, like back surgeries, often leave the patient racked with pain, long recovery times, and complications. Sometimes, the surgery doesn't work as intended, leaving the patient responsible for a therapy that didn't work correctly. As a non-invasive treatment, spinal decompression therapy can treat back and neck pain without needles, incisions, or harmful manipulations of the spine.

Back Pain

Long-Term, Significant Pain Relief

Getting back pain relief from surgery is far from guaranteed. However, because spinal decompression targets the underlying causes of your back pain, it's a much more effective long-term treatment. Spinal decompression is not a quick fix. When coupled with positive lifestyle changes like losing weight, you can maximize the pain-relieving benefits of spinal decompression.

Significant Pain

Little-to-No Recovery Time

Surgery of the back and spine requires the patient to be bedridden and uncomfortable for days and even weeks. Recovering from back surgery is no easy feat and often requires strong pain medications to help. Sometimes, back surgeries don't go as planned, causing complications and worse scenarios. Spinal decompression, on the other hand, is very effective and doesn't require much recovery time at all. Once your spinal decompression session is over, you'll probably be able to drive yourself home from our office.

Recovery Time

No Addictive Medications

One of the least talked about issues with back pain medications is that they only treat the pain, not the underlying causes. For many patients, relying on meds to relieve back pain fosters dependency on pain pills. Pain pill addiction is a very serious issue in the U.S., often leading patients down a dark path. With spinal decompression, you won't have to worry about taking pills for pain relief. That's because the root causes of your back pain are addressed, not just the symptoms.

No Addictive Medications

Cost-Conscious Treatment

If you were to look at the cost of surgery and subsequent years of prescription medication, you might be shocked. When compared to spinal decompression, surgery is a much more expensive treatment to consider. You've got to take the cost of surgery into account, but also the fact that you'll be forced to take time off work. By choosing spinal decompression therapy, you're choosing a safe, non-surgical treatment that doesn't require any time off work.

Cost-Conscious Treatment

Natural Healing

Spinal decompression relieves pressure on disrupted discs, causing them to retract back into place. This revolutionary treatment also lets oxygen, fluids, and nutrients re-enter your spinal discs, which provides additional healing.

DANIEL ISLAND, S.C. (WCIV) — City officials have been working to replace the Beresford Creek Bridge on Daniel Island for quite some time now.

Construction was originally supposed to start in the spring of 2022, but officials had to relocate some utilities causing a delay to the start.

Nine-month construction begins for Beresford Creek Bridge on Daniel Island. (WCIV)

Residents have been wanting the bridge to be replaced ever since an annual report found one of the bridge beams had deteriorated. Since then, there has been a weight limit on the bridge and a two-inch steel plate was installed to make the drive safe.

Construction will not only help traffic flow in and out of Daniel Island easier, it will also make room for pedestrians and bikers.

“In addition to the bridge, we’re also putting a pedestrian bike path which will go on the side of the bridge," said Tom Obrien, the Director of Public Service for Charleston. "Which will allow for safe passage for bikers and joggers to use the bridge to transfer off the road without being worried about cars and things like that."

But with this long process, the bridge will be completely closed down, causing drivers to look at other routes.

Officials advise drivers living west of the project to take Clements Ferry Road and drivers living east of the project will be routed to Seven Farms Road and River Landing Drive.

Some people did have concerns about the reroutes.

"We’ve had some, people are concerned about the issue of the detour but unfortunately when you’re doing a complete bridge replacement, there has to be another passage to allow," Obrien said.

"There's just no way because of the location of the bridge to have any temporary access, now people did suggest oh well why couldn’t you do one half of the bridge at a time well that lengthens the construction process and what we’re trying to do is be done as quickly as possible," he continued.

Officials hope the bridge will be reopened by April 2024.

The city of Charleston will be voting Monday and Tuesday night on the approval of a $2 million replacement bridge on Daniel Island.

DANIEL ISLAND, S.C. (WCSC) - The city of Charleston will be voting Monday and Tuesday night on the approval of a $2 million replacement bridge on Daniel Island.

The Beresford Creek Bridge is one of the only two ways to get onto Daniel Island, but officials say the bridge is in need of demolition and replacement after years of use.

The final approval of the project from the city council would include adding a pedestrian and bike lane since the current bridge is very narrow.

Charleston City Councilman Boyd Gregg has been pushing for approval of the project to reduce dangerous traffic conditions on the bridge.

“More than anything, right now, I’d say pedestrian access,” Gregg says. “There’s not a really safe path for pedestrians cross or bikers to cross; the new bridge will have much improved pedestrian access.”

The bridge experienced damage to its infrastructure about three years ago, forcing load limits on the bridge for heavy trucks.

More recently, fire vehicles and ambulances are no longer to access the island from the bridge due to its current condition.

City of Charleston Director of Public Service Tom O’Brien says the bridge was built in the 90s, and it used to be the only way to access Daniel Island before Interstate 526 provided another entry point.

“Obviously with all the development with the homes and the town center, traffic has increased,” O’Brien says. “The bridge we will be replacing it with will be a very solid bridge and will provide great access for the people.”

Daniel Island is also working on another project to build a pedestrian and bicycle bridge over Nowell Creek.

“I think it shows the city’s commitment to provide these passages and safe ways to allow for pedestrians and bicycles to use the city,” O’Brien says.

Both O’Brien and Gregg are pushing for the project to finish before the next school year.

“There’s a significant amount of school traffic on this road, particularly for those traveling up with Phillip Simmons High School,” Gregg says. “We really wanted to try to get this done as much as we could during the summer to try to alleviate some of that school traffic and take advantage of school being out.”

In efforts to address traffic concerns, the city will be holding a meeting in the next month to explain the entire construction process and answer questions from nearby homeowners.

The project will be voted on at Monday night’s Public Works and Utilities Commission meeting and Tuesday’s city council meeting.

Jimmy Buffett concert on Daniel Island rescheduled due to singer’s hospitalization

DANIEL ISLAND — The Jimmy Buffett & the Coral Reefer Band concert at Credit One Stadium slated for May 20 is being rescheduled due to an unexpected and undisclosed health issue that has befallen the “Cheeseburger in Paradise” singer.

The last-minute show, which was announced on May 12, with ticket sales beginning May 15, will now take place at a yet-to-be-announced later date.

Buffett was quoted in a news release regarding the rescheduling, with mentions of an unexpected hospitalization after a recent Bahamas trip and his promise to return to the Lowcountry, or, as he calls it, the “land of she-crab soup.”

“Hello, my faithful fans in Charleston and beyond. These few words from Mark Twain about life changes, seemed perfect to pass on at this time. ‘Challenges,’ he said make life interesting however overcoming them is what makes life meaningful. I had a sudden change of plans this week that affected us all. Two days ago, I was just back from a trip to the Bahamas, thawing out from the California ‘winter tour,’ and chomping at the bit to get to Charleston. I had to stop in Boston for a check-up but wound up back in the hospital to address some issues that needed immediate attention. Growing old is not for sissies, I promise you. I also will promise you, that when I am well enough to perform, that is what I’ll be doing in the land of she-crab soup. You all make my life more meaningful and fulfilled than I would have ever imagined as a toe-headed little boy sitting on the edge of the Gulf of Mexico. Thank you for your prayers and thoughts, your amazing years of loyalty, and just remember, ‘NOT YET!’”

Buffett and his band’s show would’ve been part of the Second Wind Tour 2023. They’ve been working on a new album as a followup to 2020′s “Life on the Flip Side,” which debuted at No. 2 on Billboard.

In initial anticipation of the event, Credit One Stadium’s general manager, Chris Meany, said, “We can’t wait to have the Parrot Heads join us for what will be the biggest party of the year! Don’t miss out — Fins up!”

According to the latest news release announcing the rescheduling, all previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new date once announced, and more information will be emailed to ticket purchasers directly.

Daniel Island Historical Society receives statewide recognition

The Daniel Island Historical Society recently made a little history of its own. For the first time since its founding in 2012, the nonprofit organization has received statewide recognition for “exemplary” work.

The Confederation of South Carolina Local Historical Societies (CSCLHS) bestowed on DIHS two Awards of Merit at its annual South Carolina Landmark Conference, held on April 14 in Florence. The two DIHS programs receiving the honor include “Cainhoy Collective: Oral Histories of Life on the Cainhoy peninsula” and the historic cemetery preservation project.

“The Daniel Island Historical Society’s efforts to preserve their historic cemeteries ensure that these sacred burial grounds will not be forgotten,” said CSCLHS Awards Committee Chair J. R. Fennell of the Lexington County Museum. “Furthermore, the DIHS’ Cainhoy Oral History Project is a great example of an organization documenting and preserving the history of a changing community. This oral history project will help preserve the memories and stories of a diverse group with very differing experiences.”

Awards of Merit are given by the CSCLHS for exceptional projects and programs that advance local history in the year prior to their nomination. The committee may present as many awards as it deems appropriate.

“These awards show the great work that South Carolina’s museums, archives and historical societies are doing,” stated a CSCLHS spokesperson in a press release. “These awards are presented during the Confederation’s annual Landmark Conference where history professionals and volunteers across the state gather to celebrate the ongoing value of South Carolina history.”

The DIHS Cainhoy Collective project, a partnership with the College of Charleston Department of History, was launched last year. A dozen interviews have been conducted thus far, with more in the works. The collection will ultimately be housed at the College of Charleston’s Addlestone Library (other locations are also under consideration). The DIHS Cemetery Committee has worked tirelessly to preserve and care for several local burial grounds, including Lesesne Cemetery, Grove Cemetery, Simmons Cemetery on Daniel Island and the Old Ruins Cemetery in Cainhoy.

Brenda Baratto, president of the CSCLHS, commended DIHS for the organization’s award-winning efforts.

“The Award of Merit is special to me as it is a recognition of grassroots efforts at its best,” said Baratto. “For much of my adult life, historical societies and their projects have always been things with which I have been associated. It is local effort, passion, long hours and the hope that a part of history is preserved and shared. Volunteers are the core of historical preservation and it is always a great pleasure to see projects get underway, get accomplished and get recognized for it. Congratulations to the Daniel Island Historical Society for receiving not only one Award of Merit, but two.”

“It is such a privilege for DIHS to be recognized with two distinct awards of merit,” said DIHS President Jessica Knuff. “Special recognition should be given to the dedicated DIHS Cemetery Committee who have donated countless hours to the cleanup and preservation of the island’s most sacred spaces. The DIHS Oral History Project has provided a fascinating glimpse into the history, culture and shared experiences of Cainhoy residents. We are so grateful for those members of the community who contributed, and are continuing to contribute, to the effort to preserve past memories for future generations.”

The Confederation of South Carolina Local Historical Societies was established in 1964 to encourage and strengthen local organizations involved in the preservation and study of historical documents, sites, buildings and artifacts through the exchange of information and cooperative activities. Members include historical societies, commissions, foundations, preservation groups, museums, archives, individuals and patriotic organizations. The Confederation is governed by an executive council made up of statewide officers and regional representatives from 10 districts across the state.

The Confederation of South Carolina Local Historical Societies established an award program to recognize the special achievements of historical organizations, volunteers in historical organizations, professionals and other entities that further the programs and projects of historical organizations. Awards are available to member organizations, individuals and others for outstanding work in promoting and preserving South Carolina’s heritage. The Confederation recognizes winners at its awards banquet at the South Carolina Landmark Conference each year.
