What is Preventive Care?
Preventive care focuses on evaluating your current health
status when you are symptom free. Preventive care allows you to obtain early
diagnosis and care, to help avoid more serious health problems.
Even if you’re
in the best shape of your life, a serious condition with no signs or symptoms
may put your health at risk. Through a preventive exam and routine chiropractic
care, your doctor can assess your current health status, provide preventative/
wellness care and detect early, subtle signs of a more serious condition.
Chiropractic care is proactive and
holistic so it not only works for prevention but also to optimize health and
function in all our aspects (mind, body, social, spirit). Like an athlete training for her sport - she
spends a great deal of time training her body prior to playing the game both to
prevent injury and improve performance once she’s in the game.
You too can train your body for life’s
stresses, you don’t have to be a professional athlete. That’s optimizing health!
Stages of Care:
Acute (daily): Severe condition (high pain, extreme/
worsening/ cascading symptoms, worsening mobility, negative effect on normal
activities and life quality and poor prognosis)
Corrective (2–3/ week): Substable condition (just like Acute
but improving)
Supportive (1/week): Stable condition (pain improving to
pain free, symptoms improving or gone, mobility improving, lessening to
supportive impact on normal activities and life quality, good prognosis)
Wellness (1-2/ month): Optimizing condition (better and better
on all counts, especially life quality)
