New To Chiropractic Care?
While you may have heard friends or colleagues talk about it, if you didn’t grow up in a household where your parents sought either preventative chiropractic care or treatment for a condition, the idea of visiting a Doctor of Chiropractic in The Villages FL or in Fruitland Park FL as part of your overall wellness plan may still be foreign.
At Etheredge Chiropractic, we’ve been providing patients with relief from pain, restless sleep, headaches and a variety of other musculoskeletal conditions for more than 30 years. Below are answers to some common questions asked by people considering Chiropractic care for the first time.
What level of pain should be present before seeking Chiropractic care?
Pain and discomfort can have a huge impact on quality of life and the activities in which we enjoy participating. So, it’s best not to wait until symptoms become unbearable and to seek treatment at the first signs of discomfort or mild pain.
Any level of pain or even discomfort is an indication that the body’s musculoskeletal system – bones, muscles, ligaments, joints and connective tissues – is not functioning properly.
What does preventative Chiropractic care entail and why is it beneficial?
Don’t have any pain or discomfort keeping you from living your best life? Great! We love healthy, patients and encourage preventative chiropractic care as way to keep you feeling your best.
From sports to daily activities, we demand a lot from our bodies – especially our spines, which are delicate structures that can easily shift out of alignment.
After a spinal adjustment, many patients report deeper, longer sleep and research has shown that chiropractic care assists in improved digestion, reduced anxiety and boosting the immune system.
Moreover, like the rest of our body, as we age our spines change as well. This can sometimes lead to chronic or recurring back pain. Preventative care, however, can help keep degenerative changes in the spine at bay.
How long does Chiropractic Care typically last?
The short answer is, “it depends.”
At our practice, we take pride in providing Chiropractic care with a personal touch. This means, when a patient visits us for the first time, we take time to listen to that person’s needs, concerns and issues. Then we will discuss a course of care tailored to his or her specific needs. We will discuss the approximate number, and frequency of visits, your needs require. Our goal is always to relieve your pain and discomfort as quickly as possible – restoring optimal function and spinal alignment.
