Benefits and Goals of Chiropractic Care

The benefits of chiropractic care include pain relief, tissue healing and good function.  It may require different amounts of time to achieve each of these goals.  Pain relief doesn't mean tissues have healed nor that function is restored.  It often takes more time for tissues to fully heal than for pain relief.

• It may take more time to restore function than it takes for tissues to heal. 
• Improving function is the key to long term pain relief.
• Failure to restore function means any pain relief is temporary and increases the risk of chronic pain. 
• Joints that have good function are not painful, perform better and are less likely to be injured or degenerate. 

This is why it is important to be consistent with your Chiropractic trial care and follow through with your Doctor's recommendations!
