If you decided to come to our office for chiropractic care, you might have done so for one of many reasons, ranging from chronic pain to a desire for greater flexibility and mobility. Whatever reason you started seeking chiropractic care for, we want you to know that you don’t even need a reason — many of our patients come to us simply to maintain their overall health and wellbeing!
When you seek chiropractic care for better overall health and wellbeing, this is known as maintenance care. The idea behind maintenance care is that when you are receiving regular adjustments, your spine and nervous system will function at an optimal level. This can also help you prevent new pain issues from developing.
In one study from Sweden, researchers looked at 328 patients with lower back pain. Each patient went in for chiropractic care anywhere from once a month to once every three months. At the end of this study, they found that those who went to the chiropractor regularly experienced 13 fewer days of pain when compared to the other symptom-guided group.
The final word is that even if you don’t have migraines, lower back pain, or any other pain, you can still benefit from chiropractic care. We’d be happy to provide you with an introduction to chiropractic care and why it’s so beneficial for your overall wellbeing.
