Laying the Foundation

Chiropractic care is like building a house – each step should occur in a particular order for everything to work correctly. When building a house, if you tried to put up your walls without a solid foundation, they would be weak and eventually collapse. The same is true for your body, requiring a specific care plan to repair itself fully and correctly. 

Phase 1: Relief

If you are in pain when you come into our office, our first objective is to help you feel better. Depending on the severity of your problem, it is typical to need care 2 to 3 times per week for 4 to 12 consecutive weeks. 

Phase 2: Correction & Restoration

During this phase, muscles and other tissues are allowed to heal more completely, helping to prevent injury. It is typical to need care 4 to 8 times per month for 6 to 24 months, depending on your overall health and the severity of your problem. 

Phase 3: Wellness

Once your body has fully healed, it is important to come in for periodic adjustments to avoid future problems. Typically, this only requires a quick visit 1 to 4 times per month, depending on your lifestyle and goals.
