One Size Doesn't Fit All!

You may have noticed that from one visit to the next, your adjustments all seem the same. "Seem" is the key word!

To those without a chiropractic degree and professional experience, the timing, angle, force and intent may appear to be the same on each visit. Even more inaccurate is the assumption that all patients are adjusted in the same way.

Not true!

Every chiropractor works a little differently, but there are many tools available to assist in an evaluation of your spine on each visit. These tools may include skin temperature readings along your spine, leg length measurements, posture, range of motion or even a high-tech tool called surface electromyograph. These and other objective measurements, combined with years of training and experience determine the care you receive on each visit.

That's just the start. Your care is also based on a highly-refined sense of touch. "Feeling with the hands" by gently pressing on muscles and spinal joints is called palpation. This form of ultra-sensitive touch provides volumes of information about joint stability, function and the approach that should be used. Nothing, not even an observant spouse or friend who accompanies you on your visit, can substitute for this special form of experience.

Your care is unique and your adjustments are tailored specifically to your individual needs. Your adjustments are unlike anyone else's. That's just one reason why we think you're so special!

Dr Don Asks some important questions of interest to Osceola residents - Chiropractor Osceola Dr Don Asks...

If you have a fever, are you sick or healthy?
Chiropractors love asking this question because it gets to the root of the chiropractic difference. Turns out fevers, vomiting, coughing and even sneezing are all healthy responses. It means your body is working correctly. Taking medications to suppress these natural processes can actually prolong your recovery.
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Osceola chiropractic practice.
