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.

HERES TO YOUR HEALTH!!!
