Your wellness and chiropractic care are similar to building a home. The foundation must be strong in order for everything to work as it should. If you tried putting up your walls before you had poured the foundation, the walls would not be as strong, and you would need to go back and pour the foundation before any serious damage occured to the home. Your body works the same way. In order for your body to do the best job at healing and maintaining itself, there is a foundation that must be set with these three general phases of chiropractic care:
PHASE 1: RELIEF CARE
Our goal is always to help you feel better. If you are experiencing pain when you enter our office, we will do what is necessary to help relieve that pain. This may mean you need care 2-3 times per week for the first 4-12 weeks.
PHASE 2: RESTORATIVE CARE
Once we have resolved the most immediate pain points, we can move into the Corrective/Restorative Care phase. During this phase, we allow more time for your muscles and other tissues to heal for more of a long-term treatment plan. It’s not uncommon to need care 1-2 times per week for a period of 6-24 months during this phase. This amount will be determined by the severity of your problem along with your overall health.
When the corrective/restorative care has been completed, we begin the Wellness Care phase. It is important to continue coming in for periodic adjustments to help avoid and minimize any problems in the future. Typically, wellness care adjustments are quick visits that happen 1-4 times per month. This amount will be determined by your potential for future problems and your overall health.

SoftWave FAQs
-
What results should I expect from SoftWave Therapy?
If you are a candidate for treatment, SoftWave therapy can provide both immediate and long-lasting results. After one SoftWave session, patients typically experience a 20-50% reduction in pain and improvement in mobility, lasting from a few hours to several days. Some patients require multiple sessions before experiencing improvement.
To determine if SoftWave is a suitable treatment for you, schedule a $69 New Patient Appointment, where you will receive one SoftWave treatment session, and the provider will assess whether further treatment is appropriate.
Unlike pain medications and injections, SoftWave treatment seeks to activate the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level to deliver genuine and long-lasting results.
-
What is the SoftWave treatment process like?
SoftWave is a fast and convenient non-invasive procedure that usually lasts 10-15 minutes, with no downtime required for recovery. First, ultrasound gel is applied, then the SoftWave device is gently placed to deliver shock waves to the injured area. Most patients feel a gentle tapping or pulsing sensation, while some patients may experience mild pain or discomfort. The use of anesthesia or numbing agents is not necessary. Effective communication with the provider during treatment can help identify treatment hotspots and track progress.
