3 Types of Care
Relief Care
As a new patient, you obviously have pain or concerns that need to be addressed promptly. At first you may need to visit our office two or three times weekly, this will allow for concentrated treatments to reduce or eliminate the symptoms that are occurring. This phase of chiropractic care is considered the Relief Care Phase.
Corrective Care
After receiving Relief Care and eliminating or reducing your symptoms, some may believe there is no need for further treatments, actually the Corrective Care phase is a very important step needed to restore, heal, and prevent symptoms from recurring. This is where we actually correct the problem. Your particular condition will determine the amount of treatments needed to complete the healing process. To help improve and accelerate the healing process you can perform certain exercises at the clinic, or in the comfort of your own home.
This phase could take a few months or more depending on the seriousness of your condition. Soreness or flare-ups may occur and are completely normal.
Maintenance and Prevention Care
Now that you are healed and feel better than ever, routine care will help to ensure that this feeling will never fade away. Studies show that it will save you more time and money to receive regular maintenance and prevention care than to wait until you have a condition… not to mention saving you the pain and suffering.
The Maintenance and Prevention Care phase will give you the benefit of living life to the fullest.
These phases progress in a pathway: Relief —> Corrective —> Maintenance & Prevention.
It is our goal to get every patient to the Maintenance & Prevention Phase no matter where they start along the pathway.
