People who struggle with back or neck pain often turn to a chiropractor for help without really knowing what to expect on that first visit. Some are in hope of an instant cure and although many times we can get a patient back on their feet and feeling pretty good after just one visit, it doesn’t always work that way. As chiropractors we like to educate patients about what is taking place both in their bodies and in the treatment room so that any misconceptions or false expectations are cleared up right from the start.

Typically a chiropractor will treat three distinct types of patients at their clinics. Patient #1 has typically suffered a recent injury to their neck or back in an accident or workplace incident. Patient #2 has suffered for a period of time with chronic reoccuring pain. The third type of patient we see proactively uses chiropractic as a part of their overall health strategy. Let’s take a look at each of these patient types in more detail.

The patient who has recently been injured in an automobile or work related accident has had their world ripped upside down. Usually they are in serious pain and have a lot of muscle stiffness and soreness. These patients have suffered severe trauma to their bodies. What happens when your body is violently wrenched in a vehicle accident or workplace mishap is quite often more involved than just a simple misalignment of the spine. The tissues and muscles that surround and protect the spine have also been injured. The spasmed musles have experienced bruising and tearing and are often knotted up tightly.

Your chiropractor will thoroughly evaluate your condition and determine the best approach to help you. He will likely recommend a series of treatments that will specifically address your needs to bring your spine back into proper alignment and allow for the natural healing of your body.

The second type of patient is what we refer to as chronic. They have been suffering with their back or neck trouble for some time. Regardless of the origin of the trouble it is often years before this person will break down and come to us for help. Their injury has often gone untreated or been covered up with the use of pain killers or muscle relaxants while the underlying cause has never been addressed. The sad part here is that with this type of prolonged injury there is often a build up of scar tissue or even the deterioration of of the spinal components such as a bulging or inflamed disc or even bone spurs. In this situation we will use chiropractic adjustments to restore freedom and nourishment to the injured part, freeing up pinched and inflamed nerves. In most cases we can provide a lot of relief to this patient and if caught soon enough even reverse the damage that has taken place. Once proper alignment is restored to the spine the body has an amazing capability to heal itself.

The third type of patient is truly a joy to work with and many of our patients who started out as an injured or chronic patient find out firsthand just how effective chiropractic can be and decide to incorporate it as the cornerstone of their health regimen. Their spines are kept in optimum health through regular chiropractic maintenance resulting in a body that performs at the peak of wellness and vitality. It is so refreshing to work with patients who truly get it and who understand how vital their spine’s health is to every aspect and function of their body and life.

Discover for yourself the hope that thousands of people suffering with pain have found. Chiropractic can help you achieve the health, happiness and wellness that you’ve been looking for.
