Types of Chiropractic Care
There are different types of chiropractic care that allow your chiropractor to best address your goals and health needs.

RELIEF CARE
If you are in pain when you come into our office, the first objective is to help you feel better.
Depending on the severity of your problem, it is typical to need care 2-3 times per week at the
beginning. This can be for a week if there is a quick recovery but can last up to a few months if it
is a severe, more chronic problem.
​
CORRECTIVE CARE
During the corrective care phase, muscles and other tissues are allowed to heal more
completely, thereby helping prevent injury. It is typical to need care on a weekly to biweekly
schedule. This can be for a couple months if there is a quick recovery but can last up to a
couple years if it is a more chronic and severe condition.
WELLNESS CARE
Once your body has fully healed, it is important to come in for periodic adjustments to avoid
problems in the future. Usually, this only requires a quick visit to the chiropractor and the
frequency of care can range from biweekly to every few months, based on your lifestyle and
goals.
