Find The Right Treatment Plan
As always, keep in mind that healing it is not linear and variation can occur, however, these treatment plans are based not only on our experience but also on the most advanced evidence-based practices in healthcare. We are constantly tweaking and adjusting our approaches to provide our patients with the most efficient and cutting-edge treatment options. Combining chiropractic care with massage therapy has been shown to provide the highest patient satisfaction, so with each care plan we recommend to engage in a round of massage as well. Below you can see what each treatment type entails and a fair estimate of time to be invested.
Pain Management
This treatment option is the shortest in duration with the motto of “find it, fix it, leave it alone.” Alleviating people of their discomfort is the first stage in any treatment plan. Typically, these plans last between 6 and 8 visits with a frequency of 2-3 visits per week.
Functional Rehab
This treatment plan starts with pain management. We then take it one step further to help stretch and strengthen the area that was injured so it is more resilient in the future. For this plan, 12 visits within a month are found to be sufficient.
Corrective Care
This treatment plan is aimed at correcting one’s posture and aiding in the repair of damaged discs. To learn more, you can refer to our Corrective Chiropractic page. This is the most heavily researched area of chiropractic treatment and is meant to establish and maintain the 3 healthy curves in our spine. This plan requires 30 visits in a 3-month span. In this time frame, we can expect a minimum of 8 degrees of change. This number can be greatly influenced by the patient’s efforts at home with the exercises prescribed by the doctor.
Health and Wellness
This treatment plan is designed to help keep your body moving and functioning at an optimal level. We live in a time where people are more proactive in their approach to health by engaging in preventative care. This is in no small part because we’ve seen the generations before us live longer and have witnessed what happens to one’s cognitive abilities when their physical abilities decline. Nobel Prize recipient Dr. Roger Sperry found in his research that, “90% of the stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine.” It is obvious that maintaining mobility as we age is imperative not only to our bodies but also to our minds. A monthly visit is recommended to help maintain the health of your spine and in turn your brain.
