Common Conditions
At Littleton Family Chiropractic & Auto Injury Center, we offer a variety of treatment options for many different conditions.
Neck Pain
Chiropractic can be an excellent way to take care of neck pain. Most often Neck Pain is caused from irritation of the joints and muscles of the neck and upper back. While stretching is always a good idea and often necessary, it sometimes is not enough. Once the joints have become restricted that can lead to constant tension on the muscle causing all of the stretching to be short lived. By addressing the muscles and joints we can get to the source of the issue and prevent it from coming back.
Back Pain
Unfortunately, Back Pain has become so common in today’s day and age that when I see patients for the first time, they think it is normal. Back pain is never normal though. Between the extra strain on our back from poor neck posture, a general lack of movement due to sedentary jobs, this has become very common, not normal. Chiropractic Care, Massage Therapy, and rehabilitative exercises are great for not only helping rid you of these issues, but help protect you from them recurring.
Office Work Injuries
While many employers are getting better at offering better workplace ergonomics, sometimes it is just not an option. Having to spend hours a day each week in compromised positions not only causes restrictions in the spinal joints and muscles, but can change the way those joints and muscles function. Dr. Zagiba helps you make improvements to your workspace to help prevent these issues from reoccurring.
Disc Injuries and Sciatica
Sciatica is a condition that causes a lot of people pain and discomfort on a regular basis. Chiropractic Care repositions your lower back into proper alignment to lessen your pain.

Headaches & Migraines
Headaches are not fun, and Migraines are even worse. Headaches & Migraines can result from many conditions including; stress, poor posture, accidents or underlying medical problems.
Autoimmune Diseases
While the cause of autoimmune disease, like Rheumatoid Arthritis, MS, Ulcerative Colitis or Fibromyalgia is still not very well understood, but, there are methods to treat the pain and discomfort that comes along with these diseases.
