Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD): the breakdown of joint cartilage and may affect any joint in the body. The most common symptoms include, but are not limited to, pain associated with use or inactivity, discomfort in joints due to change in weather, swelling and stiffness, bony lumps in joints, and loss of joint flexibility.
Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) is a gradual process that may compromise the spine due to the loss of normal structure and/or function. These changes are linked and may lead to the disc's inability to handle mechanical stress. Because the lumbar spine carries a large portion of the body's weight; the stress from motion may result in a disc problem.

SOT (Sacro-Occipital Technique) Chiropractic is the foundation of my approach to health and wellness. This solid base is greatly enhanced by a very specific type of soft tissue therapy called Neuromuscular Therapy. My blend of these two healing modalities dates back to 1995 and became my scientifically and clinically tested approach.
The Class IV Laser is very effective at reducing pain and inflammation while accelerating the body's natural healing process. Light Photons saturate the Cytochrome-C complex within the mitochondria of injured cells, stimulating the production of ATP and Reactive Oxygen Species. These "signal molecules" drive cellular metabolism and greatly accelerate healing.
Wilton Chiropractic is a wellness center helping individuals to honor the Mind Body Connection and create a drug free, non-surgical path away from disease, injury and sickness toward optimal health. Our approach is unique because not only do we correct misalignment of the body, but the patient is taught how to adapt to the stressful pitfalls of their specific daily environment.
I have conducted health fairs and spoken extensively on health, wellness, anatomy, physiology, nutrition, ergonomics, biomechanics, neurology and orthopedics since 1998. I have presented in a lecture format but prefer an interactive Q&A experience with my audience. I thrive with a playful and inquisitive audience and strive to create an open dialogue where people can ask questions and learn health related info that everyone should know.
Back pain is an expensive health problem for both patients and businesses. A 2012 study reported that we spend about $635 billion on pain every year, with a significant amount of that spent on back pain. Over the years, quite a few studies have shown that chiropractic care is more effective for back pain than medical care, plus chiropractic patients spend less money on their care than medical patients do.

Report
I started coming to Wilton Chiropractic when I injured my back at the gym 6 months ago. Dr Fastiggi has been fantastic, he not only adjusted my spine and elevated my pain and discomfort he taught me valuable exercises and breathing techniques to prevent future injuries. I have incorporated his teachings into my daily life and I am living happier, healthier and pain free as a result. Dr. Fastiggi is a great listener, he's patient, non judgmental and a total partner in my wellness. I am so happy I found Wilton Chiropractic!
