What to Expect
Laying the foundation
Restoring your health is somewhat like building a house – certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work correctly. When building a house, if you tried to put up your walls before you had a solid foundation, your walls would be weak and eventually collapse. If you tried to put on your roof before the walls were ready, you would run into the same problem. The same is true of your body and your health. Your body has to go through a particular plan of care in order to repair itself correctly and fully. There are three general phases of chiropractic care . . .
Phase 1: Relief Care
If you are in pain when you come to our office, our first objective is to help you feel better fast... as soon as possible! We use a number of pain relief techniques, with the primary one being COLD LASER THERAPY (combined with gentle chiropractic care). This space-age technology rapidly reduces pain, muscle spasm, and restricted motion. Most patients feel better RIGHT AWAY, with the very FIRST treatment visit. That's why we say.. "You Can Feel Better..Today" Depending on the severity of your problem, it is typical to need relief care 2-3 times per week for 2-8 weeks.
Phase 2: Corrective/Restorative Care
During the corrective care phase, muscles, ligaments, spinal bones and other tissues are allowed to heal more completely, thereby helping prevent further injury and to promote continued healing. This is the phase that typically includes exercise and lifestyle coaching. It is typical to need care 4-8 times per month for 3-6-12 months, depending on your overall health and the severity of your problem, and on your particular health goals.
Phase 3: Wellness Care
Once your body has fully healed, it is important to come in for periodic adjustments to avoid problems in the future. Usually, this only requires a quick visit to the chiropractor 1-2 times per month, based on your lifestyle and goals.
