Why can't my problem be fixed in a few visits? Part 3
Posted on 2009-10-01 18:28:28
Understanding the first two parts of my blog will now answer the question I have been proposing. If the condition took years to develop, and this is supported in history, exam and diagnostic imaging, then it only makes sense that the condition will take time to go away. Once the problem is revealed, the first adjustment is delivered to see if joint mobility can be restored and the vertebrae moved. Now, is this vertebrae going to stay in this position? No, because your body has a memory pattern that is supported by the muscles and ligaments that encompass the soft tissue which supports the spine. With every adjustment, you are affecting the neurological supply to that area of the spine and that, in turn, will affect the soft tissue. When the patient receives the adjustments over time, with consistent frequency, the muscles begin to loosen and ligaments re adjust to the new posture. All of this is done under two principles; nature’s healing time and the law of order. Nature’s healing time states just that: give your body the time it needs to heal. Just like a fracture or a sprain / strain injury, nature has its own healing that takes place that is universal to everyone. This is why you can’t speed healing and get lasting results. The law of order states that things need to be done in succession such as correction, healing and rehabilitation. This is why one or two adjustments in 99% of the cases out there, don’t fix the problem. All of this will give you a foundation of understanding before being seen by your chiropractor. With this in mind, all treatments are specific to the patient and the problems they have at hand. Not all patients are treated the same, but the principles are universal.

My Raleigh chiropractor really makes a difference in my life. I go in once a week to get my back 'rearranged' and would be in immense pain without their services
