Stages of Care

Relief Care or Pain Care:


The number of times you visit a chiropractor during this phase of care varies and is dependent upon your specific condition. It’s hard to say how long it will be until you see relief. It could be as short as a week or up to a month.

Corrective Care Phase:

Once your condition has stabilized, you enter the second phase of care, where the objective is to correct any underlying misalignment or injury, strengthen the muscles, and improve neuromusculoskeletal function. The frequency of office visits is reduced over a period of four to eight weeks. Care may be supplemented by exercises, nutrition, and modified daily habits.

It is important to remember that many of the conditions for which people seek care have developed over many years; therefore, correcting these problems is a true rehabilitative process. It helps to understand that it often takes time to correct these conditions.


It’s hard to believe that, after all the time, effort, energy and money put into correcting a problem, a patient would choose to forego this relatively easy phase of care! As much as we’d love to see you in our office, we’d much rather assist you in maintaining your health rather than relieving your pain.

Wellness or Proactive Care:



Few things as complicated as your body can be “fixed” and then ignored. Think of our car, your teeth or your relationships. They take time and effort to maintain, but you know it’s worth it in the long run.  That’s why we recommend a regular schedule of chiropractic check-ups.

You can then congratulate yourself on achieving your ultimate goal: Optimal Health!
