Dr. Michael Albanese is our chiropractor at Albanese Chiropractic in Glen Allen. He delivers family wellness services and long-term pain relief to patients suffering from a wide range of musculoskeletal disorders. This includes migraines, headaches, back pain, neck pain, and shoulder pain, among other debilitating conditions.

Dr. Albanese has been a licensed practicing chiropractor in Glen Allen since 1997. In addition to meeting with patients, he speaks at local schools and workplaces on such vital issues as health, safety, and personal improvement. Dr. Albanese has also spread his good-health message through media appearances on CBS Channel 6’s Saturday Morning News and on CBS’ Good Morning Virginia show.

The musculoskeletal system is a complex structure that includes the spine, bones, tendons, joints, ligaments, and other connective tissue that enables stability and movement. When one element of this complex framework is thrown out of alignment, it can create intense and long-standing pain and discomfort in the body.

People can suffer musculoskeletal disorders from a variety of causes. It might be an old or new sports injury, a workplace injury, auto accident, a slip and fall incident on ice, or a debilitating condition related to age. Whatever brings them to the attention of Dr. Albanese, his patients can find treatment options that provide relief from conditions that might have lasted for months, years, or even decades. Best of all, our treatment plans do not involve invasive surgery or pain medications that can bring more long-term damage than relief.

When you visit us for the first time, you will find yourself on a multi-phase approach to full and lasting wellness. That first phase is to identify the problem. From there, you will be put on a program to stabilize the problem area and to start you on an effective course of treatment. You will also learn a few exercises that you can do at home to continue to strengthen the affected area and proactively minimize the risk of reinjury.

Some patients can find lasting pain relief after just a few sessions. Others might want to continue the treatment on a schedule of perhaps one to four sessions per month. These treatments can include spinal adjustments, manipulations, and massage therapy.

Dr. Albanese is a strong believer in proactive care. That is why he encourages his patients to receive information and guidance leading to a healthy lifestyle and better nutrition. Our patients can enjoy the life-affirming benefits of renewed energy and optimal health and wellness through simple lifestyle changes.
