LifeTime Wellness

Chiropractic Care is a Drugless, Natural, Conservative Healing Art That Can Lead to a Life Time of Wellness

Chiropractic concentrates on keeping people well. While chiropractic is an American science over 100 years old, its wellness practices have stood the test of time--dating back to spinal manipulations first used by Hippocrates, the Father of Healing, in the 4th Century B.C.

There are two general areas of Chiropractic care, Relief Care and Corrective Care.

Relief Care

When someone uses a prescription drug, an over the counter drug, pill, potion, or lotion, or even a natural product to help reduce or eliminate their symptoms or pain, that is called "relief care". Some people choose to use chiropractic for just this purpose.  If someone chooses to receive chiropractic care for a number of visits until the pain or symptoms are abated that is Relief Care.

As the human body loses function due to Subluxation, postural imbalance and nerve system irritation,  most of the time this process is asymptomatic (you can't feel it) much like other diseases that have no symptoms until their late stages.  Symptoms such as pain (other) are most often times the last things to show up, and with the correct treatment they are often the first thing to go away.

Corrective Care

Corrective Care is a program of care designed to correct or reduce the Vertebral Subluxation and Postural Distortions as much as possible with in a recommended period of time in order to remove or reduce nerve system pressure and interference so that the body has the opportunity to function better and effect it's own healing. 

The body works better with a good nerve supply.  While a corrective care program often times provides relief upfront, the correction of the underlying cause is a longer process. 

Our goals of corrective care for a patient go beyond pain relief and functional improvement.  Pain relief and functional improvement are important and we want that for our patients.  Pain relief and functional improvement means that the patient feels better and now can do what they want to do - lift up their children or play golf for example. 

Our goals with corrective care also include seeing improvement with posture and alignment on re X-ray.  Our goals include seeing the patients' spine improve towards the normal ideal values that has been established in the literature.

Correcting the mis-aligned spine will reduce the the abnormal pressure on your bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons and discs. Bodily functions and healing improve when your spine and nervous system operates freely.

Wellness/Maintenance 

A Life Time Wellness approach goes beyond the first step of corrective care. It includes

• Good Posture
• Exercises to strengthen spine-supporting muscles
• Better nutrition
• Drug-free, surgery-free pain and symptom relief
• Periodic Spinal Check and Adjustment
  

By correcting the spinal structure, the body's natural healing ability is given the opportunity to function as designed. By adding the right exercises and lifestyle changes, a life time of wellness can be achieved.
