Chiropractic Information & Resources

 

     The main focus of chiropractic practice is the relationship between the function of joints, muscles and the nervous system (neuromusculoskeletal disorders) and the effects of these disorders on health. Management includes manual treatments, physical therapy modalities, exercise programs, patient education and lifestyle modification, and the use of orthotics. There is an emphasis on joint manipulation, called joint adjustment in chiropractic, because of its proven effectiveness. There is also an emphasis on health promotion and early return to activities for injured patients. 

     Chiropractors make no use of drugs or surgery, and refer patients for medical care when those interventions are indicated. Interdisciplinary practice is now common, with chiropractors, medical doctors, physical therapists and others working as partners in occupational health, national sports medicine teams, and automobile accident and other rehabilitation centers.

What To Expect On Your 1st Chiropractic Visit.

     When you arrive you will be greeted by one of our staff and you will be provided with a few registration and medical history forms. Next, you will have a consultation with  Dr. Case to determine if your case will be accepted for care.

     If your case is accepted, you will receive a physical examination which may or may not include diagnostic testing such as x-rays, MRI, CT scan, or laboratory work. Once a working diagnosis is determined, a treatment plan will be discussed with you. This may include care at our facility or a referral to another medical professional for further evaluation.

     We are sensitive to our patient's concerns. We like to treat our patients the same way we would like to be treated. If you have any questions along the way, please make sure to discuss them with your doctor. A well-informed patient makes a big difference.
