Thumbs Up to Relief

Many people choose to visit a chiropractor rather than continue to use medicine because they are in pain. A majority of the people we see are tired of taking drugs and are looking for answers at finding and fixing the cause of the pain, not just making it go away. In this first phase of care, our main goal is to reduce your symptoms and get you feeling better.  Why?  Because we know that when you feel better it's easier to be active and participate in life.

Most people are under the assumption that if they don’t feel any pain that there is nothing wrong with them – that they are healthy. Unfortunately, pain is a very poor indicator of health. In fact, pain and other symptoms frequently only appear after a disease or other condition has become advanced.

For example, consider a cavity in your tooth. Does it hurt when it first develops or only after it has become serious? How about heart disease? Regardless of whether you are talking about cancer, heart disease, diabetes, stress or problems with the spine, pain is usually the last thing to appear. When you begin chiropractic care, pain is also the first symptom to disappear, even though much of the underlying condition remains.

So during the Relief Phase of care, you can expect to undergo an intense treatment plan focused on getting you feeling better...fast!
