Once a Chiro Patient Always a Chiro Patient?

Have you ever heard someone make this statement about chiropractic care? For instance, "I have some neck and back trouble, but I dont want to go to the chiropractor because once you start going, they keep you coming back".

Lets look at it this way, when you were a child and you had a toothache, were your parents afraid to take you to the dentist because..........once a dental patient, always a dental patient?

When a person begins treatment with a chiropractor, it is true that he or she is typically asked to return for multiple visits in the beginning phase of care and this is for a good reason. Your bones are used to being out of alignment. This misaligned position is as much a habit as having a cup of coffee every morning.

Some people, especially those who dont exercise regularly, are bound to have problems requiring chiropractic care. And some people actually have their first subluxation or spinal misalignment at birth due to required forceful methods of delivery. As an infant, the child could have chronic sinus infections, ear infections, digestive problems, colic, bed wetting, etc. That type of person will require some chiropractic care, even if its only 4 times per year for maintenance. Without proper chiropractic care, they are bound for chronic health problems of one type or another.

Lets go back to the dentist for a moment................if you ignore your teeth, by not brushing flossing and practicing good dental hygiene then you will lose your teeth. The same holds true for chiropractic health. If you ignore your spinal health, you are bound to have health problems.

So, once a chiropractic patient, always a chiropractic patient is a very cheerfully TRUE statement. We all need to work on our health. Chiropractic is such an effective way to reduce stress. Patients often choose to use chiro as a form of preventative care.

Chiropractic Approach to Sciatica

The Sciatic nerves are the largest and longest nerves of the body, reaching about the size of your thumb in diameter and running down the back of each leg.

Have you or someone you know ever have sciatica? One of the most common causes of sciatica is Vertebral Subluxation Complex. It can be accompanied by the bulging or herniation of the discs which seperate each spinal bone. This can put pressure on the sciatic nerve roots as they leave the spinal cord. And anyone who has had sciatica knows that the result can be intense pain shooting down either or both legs.

In the past, treatment for this has involved pain medications, muscle relaxers, physical therapy and/or surgery. The chiropractic approach is to use carefully directed and controlled pressure to remove the interference from spinal structures............These chiropractic adjustments can be quite effective in reducing nerve irritation and its associated pain.

Sciatica, like other health problems that can be traced to the spine, often respond dramatically to the restoration of normal spinal function through conservative chiropractic care.

Dr. Parker has helped many patients with this problem and he'd love to help you too!!!! Be sure to call this month for our breast cancer awareness donation NEW PATIENT appointment. Your $20 donation will get you a consult with the dr, a chiro exam, 1st treatment and all necessary xrays. Best deal in town and your donation goes for a cure
