Imagine recovering twice as fast after surgery, no longer having the need for pain medications (or less medication) for numerous injuries/surgeries and conditions such as Fibromyalgia or Scoliosis, or boosting your immune system so that you get fewer colds/flu throughout the year. No, this is not a futuristic new age/science fiction novel. Through chiropractic care, it is possible to reduce or eliminate pain, recover more quickly, and is more affordable and less risky than traditional medical treatments.
Reducing the amount and intensity of physical pain is the number one reason individuals seek out chiropractic help. Chiropractic care can treat, or even eliminate, pain in all areas of the body. Back pain is the most commonly reported reason for patients to obtain chiropractic treatment. This method of care is not for back pain alone. Patients go to a chiropractor for a number of other reasons such as (but not limited to) headaches, carpel tunnel syndrome, knee injuries, arthritis, stress, and soft tissue injuries. By reducing pain and stiffness, patients are able to relax and concentrate on the rehabilitation process. It will also boost their immune system and give them more energy and a positive outlook on their physical condition(s).
When a patient is in an accident or has a chronic condition, the recovery time usually takes so long that they start to feel as if they will never feel good again. Chiropractic treatment aids speeding up the recovery process or get to a point that they can experience enhanced quality of life outside of a doctor’s office or rehab center. By relieving pressure throughout the patient’s body, they are able to heal at a faster rate and recover more fully.
The body has many different entities, but it all works as one unit. If the “whole unit” is treated, then the individual systems will function more efficiently and recover from any ailment/condition. If a full and complete recovery is not possible, chiropractic care will allow the body to recover to its fullest extent. This is not possible if only certain areas are the main focus. The whole body must be treated for optimal results.
