| What is Chiropractic |
ChiropracticChiropractic is a health care system that focuses on the structure of the body. Maintaining proper body structure can help the body function well. Likewise, if a body area is not functioning well, optimizing the body's structure can cause improvement to that body area. In addition, chiropractic believes that the body has an inherent ability to stay well. We try to enhance that ability by optimizing the body's structure especially at the spine and extremities. Chiropractic focuses on the neuro-musculo-skelatal system. Therefore commonly seen conditions are strains/sprains, bursitis, headaches, disc problems, leg pain (sciatica), and arthritis to name just a few. |
| Levels of Chiropractic Care RELIEF CARE: This level of chiropractic care begins with the obvious symptoms that you have, and as the name suggests attempts to reduce and relieve your pain. This may involve several frequently scheduled visits to begin the healing process and restore function to the neuro-muscular-skeletal system. Often, in quick onset un-complicated conditions, relief care is all that is needed. Also, many times this takes a short amount of time with few visits. If no specific tests need to be run in the initial visit, then a trial of treatment is given using the working diagnosis. If your condition is unresponsive to initial treatment, then more testing may be ordered. A new plan of relief care will then be recommended. If your condition is improving but not completely relieved, then a new plan of relief care will be recommended. REHABILITATIVE/STABILIZATION CARE: To continue the healing process even if your symptoms are subsiding, a rehabilitative level of treatment is sometimes needed. This involves less frequent visits as well as in most cases more or continued home instructions. PREVENTIVE CARE: Periodic evaluation and treatment can be used to help prevent problems from re-occurring. |
