Types of Care:

Once the cause of your symptoms has been identified, two types of care are offered.

Patch Care is an attempt to provide temporary relief from your pain.  The doctors will utilize spinal adjustments, stretching, massage, ice and electrical therapies to aid in this process. With patch care, progress will be monitored based on your symptoms. This approach will not attempt to fix the underlying problem or return your spine to it's ideal position.  Chiropractic patch care is extremely effective at getting people out of pain yet because a more serious underlying problem may be present, this is only a patch.  Chances are, that in time it will wear off and the pain will return.  How quickly pain and symptoms return cannot be predicted.

Corrective Care is an attempt to fix the probable cause of your symptoms and return your spine to as close to ideal as possible.  This care is also known as structural or spinal rehabilitation.  It is a combination of adjustments, exercises and traction specific to your abnormal spinal position, which makes permanent changes in the spine therefore permanent changes in your symptoms.
