Spinal Decompression Therapy in Wando, 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 Wando, 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 Wando, 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.

Thirteen athletes from across eight sports signed their letters of intent to play at the collegiate level at a signing day ceremony at Wando High School on April 26.

The Class of 2023 students will be attending universities in and outside of South Carolina. Six athletes signed to Division I schools.

“There certainly has been a lot of hard work by these young student athletes,” said Wando Athletic Director Mark Buchman. “This is certainly a very exciting time. To have an opportunity to move to the next level, not many athletes get that chance.”

With the click of a pen and the situating of a branded cap on the head, the student athletes committed to their schools. Several of those athletes earned a double shout-out from the coaches who took turns at the podium highlighting their players. A handful of the athletes found the time to excel in not just one, but two sports during their high school careers.

“We’re talking about kids that go 365, 24/7 and that’s really rare to find these days,” said Wando Volleyball Coach Alexis Glover.

Girls basketball forward Taylor Brown signed with Division III school the University of Lynchburg.

Boys cross country runners Brendan Gomez and Tanner Jelliff signed with the University of Tennessee and Charleston Southern University, respectively. Both are Division I schools. Gomez and Jelliff also run on Wando’s track and field team.

Two more track and field runners signed with Division I schools. Hannah Togami is heading to the University of South Carolina and Jack Scott to the Citadel. Scott also played as a defensive back on the football team.

Running back AJ Gathers signed to play football for Brevard College in North Carolina. Gathers served as a team captain in his senior year.

For volleyball, setter Reece Campbell is heading to Salem College in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Opposite hitter Emma Sanders signed with Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, Massachusetts. Togami also played on the volleyball team as an outside hitter.

Wrestler Pierce Carpenter-Kydd will be joining Scott among the ranks of the Citadel cadets, though he signed with the Bulldogs wrestling team. Fellow wrestler Jacob Pelbath signed with Liberty University.

Boys soccer player Johnathan Coleman signed to Division II school Anderson University. His teammate Stokes McConnell signed with The University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee. Girls soccer midfielder Lennon Leithauser signed with The City College of New York.

“We, as an athletic partner, are extremely proud of you and I’m sure your parents, all the supporters that are in the crowd, your friends, family members are super proud,” said girls soccer coach Shannon Champ.

MOUNT PLEASANT — A year ago, Lucy Beckham quarterback Chalmers Ballard admitted he was a little nervous when the Bengals faced crosstown rivals Wando in front of 10,000 fans.

The junior quarterback had no such jitters this year.

Chalmers threw for 147 yards and two touchdowns and running back Stephen Segars rushed for 112 yards and added two more TDs as Lucy Beckham routed Wando, 43-0, on Aug. 25 before a standing-room-only crowd at District 2 Stadium.

The Bengals, who are playing in just their second varsity season, have beaten Wando both times the schools have faced each other. Lucy Beckham edged the Warriors, 8-6, a season ago in the first varsity matchup between the two schools.

Unlike the game last season, which featured two stingy defenses and little offense, the Class AAAA Bengals moved the ball at will against the AAAAA Warriors, scoring on five straight offensive possession in the first half.

“I didn’t do this all by myself, I had a lot of help from all of my teammates,” said Chalmers, who completed 13 of 19 passes on the night. “They’ve put in so much work in the offseason and we just get on the field and did the things that we’ve been practicing for the past four months.

“I think the final score shows that Beckham is here and we can play. We’ve worked so hard and it’s great to see it pay off with this kind of result.”

As good as the Bengals offense was, the defense was even better. The Bengals, under former The Citadel defensive coordinator Tony Grantham, limited the Warriors to less than 100 yards of total offense and only 26 rushing yards.

“We are a relentless defense,” said Lucy Beckham coach Jamel Smith, who used to be the defensive coordinator Wando. “We always preach finish plays, finish tackles, don’t assume that someone else is going to make that tackle. We swarm to the football and it showed tonight. They kids have bought into what we are doing.”

Keeping with tradition that started last year, the losing principal had to kiss “Billy the Goat” at midfield after the game was over.

HANAHAN — Kevon Rivera had himself a season in one game against Aynor Friday night.

Rivera rushed for 264 yards and scored five touchdowns to lead Hanahan past Aynor by 41-16 in the opening round of the Class AAA playoffs on Nov. 3 at Wiley Knight Stadium.

The Hawks (7-4) will face Gilbert, a 49-12 winner over Darlington, in the second round of the playoffs on Nov. 10 at Hanahan High School.

Rivera, a four-year varsity starter, surpassed the 2,000-yard mark for the season and eclipsed the 5,000-yard career plateau with his performance against the Blue Jackets.

The 5-10, 220-pound senior scored on runs of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 41 yards. He had a 51-yard TD run called back on a holding penalty.

“We’ve got a great offensive line, I can’t do anything without them,” said Rivera, a four-year varsity starter for the Hawks. “When it was time for me to go up the gaps, I hit them and when I got on the perimeter the wide receivers blocked their butts off. They made my job really easy tonight.”

Rivera did most of his damage between the tackles, but ran over, through, around and past the Blue Jackets on just 18 rushing attempts.

“Aynor eats a lot of the clock, so they limit your possessions and they limited his touches tonight,” said first-year Hanahan coach Milan Turner. “Really proud of his effort, the offensive line continues to do a great job. He’s tough to bring down, strong and a hard runner.

“He has the ability as big and strong as he is to make cuts and make people miss. He’s elusive and that’s rare for a big running back.”

It took the Hawks defense a couple of possessions to get accustomed to the Blue Jackets single-wing offense.

“It’s a tough offense to prepare for,” Turner said. “There’s a lot of double tight end stuff, unbalanced lines and they run it right at you. They will nickel-and-dime you to death and that makes it tough on your offense because they have the ball for so long.

Wando tabs former Timberland standout, Stratford assistant as football coach

Art Craig remembers seeing Isaiah Perrin walking around the halls at Timberland High School and wondering why the big fella wasn’t playing football.

At the time, Perrin was about 6-foot-3 and tipped the scales at around 270 pounds. Craig thought he’d make a great offensive lineman.

Perrin, as it turned out, was more interested in becoming the next Tiger Woods.

“Isaiah was a huge golfer and really didn’t think about playing football,” Craig said. “We finally talked him into coming out for the football team and he was a three-year starter for us.”

Perrin, 34, grew to love the game and on Thursday was named the head football coach at Wando High School.

Perrin takes over for Rocco Adrian, who resigned in October after four seasons as head coach with the Warriors. Adrian went 8-28 at Wando.

Perrin served as the offensive coordinator for Stratford High School this past season, but has had stops at Wilson, Swansea, Lower Richland and Timberland as an assistant coach.

“Isaiah is a real student of the game,” Craig said. “I think he’s going to do a great job at Wando. He’s going to be able to relate to his players and I know they will love playing for him.”

Perrin said facing the Warriors during the regular season convinced him that the Mount Pleasant school has the potential to be a winning program.

“Seeing these guys and how they played us during region play made me want to come here,” said Perrin, who served as the head golf coach at Stratford for two years. “They were relentless in their effort. I think that’s something that we can build on. They have great facilities and a community that wants these guys to win. There’s a lot of potential here.”

The Wando High School Marching Band added another remarkable chapter to its storied legacy on Nov. 4 at Colleton County High School. Competing in the 5A category, which represents the largest high schools in South Carolina, Wando secured their 15th State Championship title in an event that featured a total of 22 bands from across the state.

In the preliminary competition, Wando earned a Superior rating, claiming first place in the Lower State Championship, while James F. Byrnes Marching Band clinched the Upper State Championship. The top 12 scoring bands advanced to the finals competition.

The Wando High School Marching Band delivered an outstanding performance during the finals, securing the top position with a score of 93.8 and earning all caption awards for High Music Performance, High Visual Performance and High Overall Effect. James F. Byrnes High School followed with a score of 92.05. Other finalists included Clover High School (90.0), Summerville High School (88.4), and Boiling Springs High School (86.0).

Wando Director of Bands Bobby Lambert expressed the group’s pride and gratitude.

“We are so proud of all of the students, staff, and parents for the Wando High School Marching Band. Whenever you do anything 15 times, it could appear to be a little common or not special. That is not the case with this show or this championship. This community came together to create a work of art that demonstrated passion and artistry. We hope always to represent Mt. Pleasant and Wando at the highest level,” Lambert said.

Growth, trust, and commitment are the keys to the success of Wando Bands, according to Associate Director Lanie Radecke.

“We are incredibly proud of these young people. Their journey over the past few months has been one of growth through trust and unwavering commitment to excellence. The season culminated in a performance that was musical, artistic, and emotionally intelligent. The consistent pursuit of excellence over time is an intangible skill they will carry with them throughout their lives. We are excited to continue our year with chamber music, jazz band, winter guard and concerts,” Radecke said.

Dr. Andrew Blair, the band’s new associate director in his first season, shared his excitement for the marching band’s victory.

“My first semester at Wando High School, a place that’s renowned nationwide for its musical excellence, has been an exhilarating rollercoaster ride. Wando High School is a true musical haven, and I’ve been welcomed with open arms by an outstanding ensemble of students and colleagues who possess a passion for music and teaching that’s simply infectious. The atmosphere here is electric, and I’m absolutely thrilled to embark on this new chapter in my musical journey,” Blair said.

Color Guard Director Brian Winn celebrated the band’s evolution.

“I have been privileged to witness the transformative power of performance art within our color guard. This show was challenging, and the kids stepped up to meet and surpass our expectations. Winning the State championship is a testament to the commitment and dedication of the wonderful kids in our program, as well as the detail and artistry of the design team in putting together Axis Mundi. This collective spirit drives us to push boundaries and create visual experiences that resonate deeply with our audience,” Winn said.

The 2023 show, “Axis Mundi,” created by program coordinator Michael Gray, explores the theme of finding one’s personal center and acting from that truth.

Wando High School Marching Band continues to evolve as a living, breathing entity of musical and marching arts excellence. The dedication, hard work, and passion of the students, staff, and parents involved in the Bands of Wando shine brightly, making each victory as special as the first.

The Bands of Wando is under the direction of Bobby Lambert, Lanie Radecke, Dr. Andrew Blair, and Brian Winn, with assistance from Michael Gray, Tim Cole, Dr. Justin Clarkson, Will Frankenberger, Andrew Kriska, John Houston, Zane Franco, Keilah Walker, Crysta Caldwell, Chris Alaniz, Vince Talbert, Ryan West and Mason Malone. The band is under the field direction of drum majors Annabelle Twomey, Evan Furtaw, Olivia O’Reilly and Brian Shaw.

The Bands of Wando include four concert bands, two jazz bands, a percussion ensemble and Winter Guard programs in addition to its Marching Band and Color Guard. Though Wando’s marching band season has concluded, their four concert bands will perform a Fall Concert on Nov. 16, at 7 p.m. at the Wando High School Performing Arts Center.

HUGER S.C. (WCSC) - People that live in the Huger-Wando community are voicing their concerns to city leaders about everything from transportation to affordable housing.

Almost 200 people came to a community meeting at Cainhoy Elementary on Thursday. They say they feel overlooked when it comes to decisions regarding their area.

Carl Anderson, S.C. House of Representatives District 103, says he is new to representing the Huger-Wando area and wants their requests to be fulfilled.

“Berkeley County has several pots of money that we just hope would be shared across Berkeley County with every area of Berkeley County, but this area, as they said to me, they feel like they have been overlooked,” Anderson said. “So, I feel like this area needs a little bit more attention than the other areas.”

At the meeting, representatives from Berkeley County, the state’s health department and department of transportation, just to name a few, answered questions from the public.

“The funds that have come in from the federal government during this pandemic and what is going to be done with it,” Anderson said. “And we heard that only a fraction of those funds were spent. So, they want to be included in the funds that the county has so that things can get done in this area.”

Another issue brought up was the repaving of certain roads, the cost of affordable housing and overall severity of sewage and drainage problems.

One community member, Cynthia Lawrence, says she wished that the agencies could have gone into more detail with their answers.

“Well, I think the public is still a little leery about the answers that they received tonight from the agencies that were here,” Lawrence said. “We needed to go a little deeper and it just wasn’t enough time.”

Although the community members say they wish they had more time, other county and school representatives say they can answer more in-depth questions when contacted directly.

The hope is to have another meeting sometime in October, but no date has been set as of now. The organizer’s plans include inviting Berkeley County Water and Sewer so they can solve more of the sewage issues.
