Rehabilitative Care
Once your condition has stabilized, you enter the second
phase of care, where the objective is to correct any
underlying injury or cause of discomfort, strengthen the
muscles, and improve neuromusculoskeletal function. The
frequency of office visits is reduced over a period of two to
six weeks. Care may be supplemented by rehabilitation
exercises, nutrition, and modification of daily habits.
It is important to remember that many of the conditions
for which people seek care have developed over many
years; therefore, correcting these problems is a true
rehabilitative process. It helps to understand that it takes
time to correct these conditions.
Once your discomfort has subsided, you may think all is
well and choose to abandon your efforts. However, if you
end your care before fully healing the muscles and soft
tissues, you can invite a relapse. This is a mistake many
people make, and it sets them up for recurring health
issues.
It's hard to believe that, after all the time, effort, energy,
and money put into correcting a problem, a patient
would choose to forgo this relatively easy phase of care!
As much as we'd love to see you in our office, we'd much
rather assist you in maintaining your health rather than
relieving your pain.
