Disc Decompression
Chronic back pain doesn’t have to control your life when non-surgical alternatives exist. Our disc decompression therapy targets the root cause by creating negative pressure within spinal discs. This FDA-cleared treatment helps patients avoid surgery while finding lasting relief from sciatica and degenerative disc conditions.
Cornejo Chiropractic begins each program with detailed imaging and physical assessment. You’ll relax on our specialized decompression table while computer-controlled forces gently separate compressed vertebrae. Our chiropractor adjusts treatment parameters based on your response and schedules sessions over several weeks for optimal results.
Personal Injury
Traffic collisions and workplace accidents can leave your body misaligned and in constant discomfort. Personal injury care addresses these trauma-related issues through precise spinal corrections and soft tissue treatments that target inflammation at its source. Many patients experience significant pain reduction within the first few weeks of starting treatment.
Your recovery begins with detailed documentation of all injuries, which proves essential for both healing and insurance purposes. Cornejo Chiropractic develops rehabilitation protocols that combine manual adjustments with strengthening exercises specific to your accident type. Our chiropractor coordinates with legal teams and insurance providers to ensure you receive the comprehensive care needed for full recovery.
Therapeutic Laser
Pain relief doesn’t always require pills or invasive procedures when light-based therapy can target inflammation directly. Therapeutic laser treatment uses specific wavelengths to penetrate deep into muscles, joints, and nerves where traditional methods can’t reach. The concentrated photons trigger cellular regeneration, often providing noticeable relief from arthritis and neuropathy within days rather than weeks.
Treatment sessions are surprisingly quick—most patients spend less than ten minutes under the laser for each affected area. Cornejo Chiropractic uses an MLS laser system that delivers precise energy doses without causing any heat or discomfort. Our chiropractor tracks your response patterns and modifies laser settings throughout your treatment series to optimize tissue repair and pain reduction.
Knee Decompression
Walking up stairs shouldn’t feel like an impossible task, yet millions of people avoid activities due to persistent knee discomfort. Knee decompression creates negative pressure within your joint space, allowing compressed cartilage to expand and receive vital nutrients it needs for repair. The gentle pulling action relieves bone-on-bone contact that causes grinding sensations and sharp pain during movement.
Treatment involves securing your leg in a specialized device that applies controlled traction forces in measured intervals. Cornejo Chiropractic combines static holds with intermittent pressure changes to maximize fluid exchange within your knee joint. Our chiropractor adjusts the decompression levels based on your tolerance and response, and most patients report improved mobility after completing their prescribed series of sessions.
Auto Accidents
Rear-end collisions at just 15 mph can snap your head forward and backward with tremendous force, damaging muscles and ligaments before you realize what happened. Auto accidents often mask their true impact—adrenaline blocks pain signals for hours or even days after the crash. Many victims feel fine initially, only to wake up the next morning unable to turn their neck or lift their arms without shooting pain.
Insurance companies expect medical documentation within specific timeframes, making prompt evaluation crucial for both your health and your claim. Our detailed injury assessments uncover problems that emergency rooms typically overlook, from subtle rib displacements to deeper spinal irregularities. Cornejo Chiropractic maintains relationships with personal injury attorneys and understands exactly what documentation our chiropractor needs to provide for maximum insurance coverage and legal protection.
Digital Foot Scanning Technology
Poor foot mechanics ripple upward through your entire body, creating compensations that eventually manifest as lower back pain and hip dysfunction. Digital foot scanning technology captures thousands of precise measurements in seconds, revealing pressure points and structural imbalances invisible to the naked eye. These detailed scans expose how your unique gait patterns contribute to spinal misalignments that traditional examinations often miss.
Cornejo Chiropractic uses state-of-the-art scanning equipment that eliminates guesswork from orthotic creation by mapping every contour of your feet. The digital data ensures custom orthotics fit perfectly and address your specific biomechanical flaws rather than generic arch problems. Research shows properly fitted orthotics can reduce back pain by up to 32%, making this technology an essential diagnostic tool for our chiropractor when treating chronic spinal conditions.

FAQs
When should I see a chiropractor for my pain?
You should consider chiropractic care if you’ve experienced back or neck pain for more than a few days, especially after an auto injury or if the pain interferes with daily activities. Many people wait too long, thinking the pain will resolve on its own, but early chiropractic treatment often prevents chronic conditions from developing. Our Fontana chiropractor can evaluate your symptoms and determine if spinal alignment issues or muscle strain are contributing to your discomfort.
Is chiropractic treatment safe for everyone?
Chiropractic care is generally very safe when performed by a licensed professional, with serious complications being extremely rare. However, your chiropractor will conduct a thorough health history and examination to identify any conditions that might require modified treatment approaches. Certain techniques may be adjusted for pregnant women, elderly patients, or those with specific medical conditions to ensure optimal safety and effectiveness.
What's the difference between chiropractic care and massage therapy?
While massage therapy primarily focuses on soft-tissue manipulation to relieve muscle tension, chiropractic treatment addresses spinal alignment and joint function through manual manipulation and other specialized techniques. Many patients benefit from combining both approaches, as massage therapy can complement chiropractic adjustments by reducing muscle strain around treated areas. A comprehensive approach often includes both modalities along with other therapies for maximum chiropractic benefits.
How do I know if my spine health needs attention?
Common signs include persistent back or neck pain, headaches, reduced range of motion, or pain that radiates into your arms or legs. You might also notice that you favor one side when walking, experience stiffness after sitting, or have recurring shoulder tension. Regular spinal care checkups can catch problems before they become serious, much like dental cleanings prevent major tooth problems.
Can chiropractic treatment help with conditions other than back pain?
Yes, chiropractors treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including neck pain, headaches, shoulder problems, and sports injuries. Many patients also find relief from arthritis symptoms, certain types of neuropathy, and pain related to poor posture or repetitive stress. Your personalized care plan may include treatments for multiple interconnected issues, as problems in one area often affect other parts of your body.
