How Do Injuries Happen?
Often, when people come in and describe their pain to me, they will say it happened all at once.
"Doc, I just bent over to pick up my socks -- I must have slept wrong."
Fun fact.... these injuries do not happen all at once like this.
Less than 10% of the nerves in your body actually detect pain, so you really don't feel your issues until they become big ones.
Picking up your kids, stepping off a curb, or the simple act of sleeping does not throw your back out.
It happens over years with poor posture, lack of movement, and repetitive stress. This build-up causes issues within the body and the muscles, and they can't quite adapt to where they need to be.
If you struggled with throwing your back out, an emergency chiropractor is not going to correct it for you.
Neither will a pill, a fancy new chair, or even an expensive, brand new mattress.
That's why our adjustments are strategic.
We focus on the cause of the pain.
We aim to correct that cause, which is why so many of our members stay for wellness care.
