Chiropractic Treatment
My approach to Chiropractic Care is simple:
Initial Pain Relief
This phase of treatment is designed to get you out of pain fast. This will take 6 to 12 visits over 2-4 weeks. The treatment will reduce your pain to manageable levels.
Complete Correction
The goal of any treatment plan is to resolve your condition. This phase of treatment takes 4-8 visits over 2-4 weeks. During this phase of treatment we will use proven pain relieving treatments that will get your body back to normal and ready for the Rehabilitative phase of treatment.
Rehabilitative Care
The Rehabilitative phase of treatment is designed to give you the tools you need to keep your condition from returning. This phase of treatment takes 4 weeks and has a strong emphasis on home care and lifestyle corrections.
Wellness Care
Completing corrective and rehabilitative care qualifies you for one of our reduced fee wellness plans. Wellness care or supportive care is a personalized phase of treatment that is designed to keep you healthy and prevent any set backs that might occur after your condition has been corrected.
You might think you know what you need best but I assure you this system works and has cured thousands of patients just like you.
Evaluations
The key to any successful course of treatment is to properly identify the cause of the problem and to treat said cause. To determine the cause we must first start with a detailed history. A truthful and detailed history gives me the insight into your condition that I will require to fix your condition.
Following the history we will go into a detailed examination. In my offices I focus the evaluation on the condition that I believe you have. This information is formed from the history. I use a variety of specialties. I usually start with a range of motion study. I follow this up with Orthopedic, Neurologic and Chiropractic testing that confirm your diagnosis.
The history and evaluation of your condition are critical if we are going to fix your condition.
X-Ray and Explination of Findings
It is absolutely amazing how much information you can get from a simple x-ray. Even a medically normal x-ray is loaded with information that can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of your condition.
I will explain the findings to you in English so you can see what I see. I always feel more confident in treating your condition after I've had the opportunity to evaluate your films.
With that said, I don't take x-rays on every patient and old x-rays can be just as valuable as current films.
Patients frequently ask if x-rays are really necessary. My response to this common question is that I wouldn't recommend them if I didn't think they were necessary.
Some of the medical criteria for taking x-rays are: trauma, pain in the morning, unexplained pain, history of arthritis, chronicity of pain. I also recommend x-rays when there is no history that explains how the pain started. Similarly when the examination fails to indicate a cause.
Are X-Rays Safe
X-rays are safe and a cost effective way to view the structure and general condition of the spine. They can reveal spinal regions under high stress and expose areas of degenerative change. This can often provide essential additional information which correlates history and examination findings allowing for a more accurate spinal analysis and a more individualized and effective treatment plan. X-rays are also useful in assessing the appropriateness of chiropractic care. They can help to rule out the existence of more serious pathological processes such as spinal fractures, tumors and infections which require immediate emergency medical intervention.
