There are three (3) stages of chiropractic care:   (1) Symptom Relief/Crisis Care Chiropractic (2) Corrective Chiropractic (3) Wellness and Health Enhancement Chiropractic   For Symptom Relief/Crisis Care Chiropractic, the focus is to simply relieve pain and symptoms. Misalignments are not yet fully corrected and nerve interferences are not fully eliminated. If your spine is left in its improper position, even if there are no observable symptoms, the spine will continue to degenerate and the organs controlled by these spinal nerves can malfunction and become diseased in the future.   The focus of Corrective Chiropractic Care is to remove interferences to the spinal nerves through a very precise program of spinal adjustments, stretches and exercises that are uniquely designed for each of our patient. Progress exams and re-x-ray give objective evidence of improved spinal position and nerve function.   Wellness and Health Enhancement Chiropractic Care: More and more people are becoming wellness patients--people who visit us for spinal maintenance and health enhancement. Just as you see your dentist for dental checkups, wellness care should begin at birth and continue throughout lifetime. Think about it—maintaining anything provides longer life and better function with minimal problems. If you neglect anything that requires maintenance, it will inevitably develop into a problem.
