Understand Chiropractic Care

Laying the foundation

Chiropractic care is like building a house – certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work correctly. If you tried to put up walls before a solid foundation, your walls would collapse. The same is true for your body. We offer different types of care in order to help your body repair itself correctly. There are three general phases of chiropractic care . . .

Phase 1: Pain Relief Care

If you are in pain when you come into our office, our first objective is to help you feel better as soon as possible. Depending on the severity of your problem, understand you may need care 2-3 times a week until improvement is seen.

Phase 2: Corrective & Restorative Care

During this phase, muscles and tissues are heal more completely, thereby helping prevent injury. It is typical to need care 4-8 times per month depending on the severity of your problem.

Phase 3: Maintaining Wellness 

Once your body has fully healed, it is prudent and important to have periodic checkups for adjustments to avoid future problems. Usually, these are quick visits based on your lifestyle, physical needs and goals.
