Alleviating your Pain – Series Introduction

Most chiropractic patients go through a similar series of events that lead up to their first visit to the chiropractor. I noticed that many patients – and maybe you identify this – are interested in learning more about what I do for you as a chiropractor and the various stages your body goes through as it deals with an injury or joint pain.

Here is the typical pattern most people go through after a pain-generating event:

1.) Pain
2.) Immobilization and Disuse
3.) Chronic Painful Musculoskeletal Dysfunction

If that didn’t make sense right away, don’t worry – I am going to break these stages down for you in a series of articles that will help you understand your chiropractor and synergistic treatments like acupuncture.
