How Long Will it Take?

“…Do I have to keep coming back forever?”

This is another one of the more common questions that we are asked.  The simple answer is, It depends on your GOALS.

“Doc…I need relief”

Some people come to the office in terrible pain. They want and need relief in order to get on with their lives.  While we don’t specifically treat the pain or symptom, by reducing the cause of the problem, relief usually follow fairly quickly.  Every person is different and brings a different level of overall health with them. The problem with this type of ”relief care” is that the underlying cause of the problem is still lurking, even though the symptom (pain, headache, etc.) is gone.

“Doc…I feel better but I want to fix the problem.”

Many people recognize that even though the pain is gone, the problem is still there. They want to correct it so that the chances of having it return are small. The time required for correction depends on many things.  Your current state of overall health, how long you have had your health problems, your lifestyle and stress levels…there are many variables at work.  If you are willing to take suggestions about how to manage some of the variables that are causing problems, get your spine checked regularly for subluxations, I think you will be surprised how quickly you can see a difference in your overall health.

“Doc…you’ve helped me to regain my health.  Now how can I keep it that way?”

Before we get to the answer, consider these other questions...  Do you have to exercise for the rest of your life?  Do you have to maintain your dental care?  Do you have to do regular maintenance on you car?  The answer to each of these is NO!  But, by this point in your care, you have invested your time and energy to make the changes necessary to restore your health.  You most likely will find that you have more energy, sleep better, handle stress better and generally have more health and vitality.  Why would you want to go back to the way it was.  This is our ultimate goal for you when you start care.  We have seen so many people improve their health with chiropractic care that we know it’s possible.  We know it’s’ possible for you!  With your nerve system free from interference, you are free to reach your fullest potential!
