Most chiropractors regard the elimination of symptoms as the easiest part of a persons care. If the chiropractor were only to reduce the pain, the chances of the condition recurring would be much greater. In order to prevent a rapid recurrence of symptoms, it is necessary to continue receiving care even though you may appear to be symptom free.
During the correction / restorative phase of your care, you will not have to receive adjustments as often as you did at the beginning of your treatment. Depending on your particular circumstances, you may begin doing exercises and stretches to help accelerate your healing. These can be done either at our Center for Holistic Health or at your home.
Do not be discouraged if you have occassional mild flare-ups in your symptoms. This is normal. Flare-ups often occur during this phase because your body is not fully healed. Depending on the term and severity of your injury or condition, this phase of your care may last anywhere from a few months to a couple of years.
