Facet Joint Syndrome occurs as a result of aging, injuries, or constant pressure on the facet joints. Most of the damage that impacts the facet joints is from typical wear-and-tear on the body, but damage can also arise from an injury to the back or neck or degenerative disc disease. The process of Facet Joint Syndrome starts when the cartilage covering the facet joints begins to deteriorate, causing the joints to swell and stiffen. This causes the vertebrae bones to make contact with each other without any cushion between then. This occurrence may result in bone spurs on the edges of the facet joints, and it may begin to affect other areas near the spine such as the cervical area (neck, shoulders, and head) and the lumbar area (hips, buttocks, and back of the thighs).
Traditionally, facet joint syndrome treatments consist of pain management pills with terrible side effects or surgeries with grueling recovery periods such as a Facet Rhizotomy or Facet bone fusion. However, at Hagan Chiropractic in Hayward, we provide an effective treatment called spinal decompression that is absent of medication and invasive procedures. Spinal decompression therapy takes a holistic approach to pain relief through the utilization of a computerized table that makes precise adjustments to the spine.

I have having severe neck and shoulder pain. After Going through few sessions with Dr. Kendra and Dr. Kent, I started feeling relief. Both of them did an thorough analysis of my problems and started adjusting my neck and back. After the initial sessions, I gave a break and went back again after couple of month. They again did a check on my neck and shoulder to see how far I improved and suggested the course of future adjustments. I am visiting them monthly once and seeing more improvements. Highly suggest if you have similar symptoms/pain. Appointment booking is also very easy and always accommodative. FYI - Kent Hagan Chiropractic accepts Kaiser insurance. *

Even a jellyfish would recommend Dr Hagen and it doesn’t even have a Spine. That’s saying something. When you’re back is against the wall Kent Hagan Chiropractic is the place to put you back into the Race *

This is a very well run office with knowledgeable doctors and helpful staff. They assessed my medical issues, developed a plan of care and began treatment all in the same visit. Dr. Hagan went over my x-ray results with me and gave me one of the best adjustments I've had in my life. I look forward to my ongoing treatment at Hagan Chiropractic. *

I am so impressed with the service provided at this place. I arrived suffering from intense neck pain, unable to move it and completely seized up. I felt so comfortable right from the reception area through to the actual treatment; in just two days, my neck has regained nearly 80% of its mobility. I recommend this place 100%!! *
