Can You Get Addicted To Chiropractic Adjustments?

Addicted to Adjustments?

We’ve all heard the cliché that once you go to a chiropractor, you have to go for the rest of your life. Fearing that they’ll get “addicted” to adjustments or become dependent upon them has stopped many people from benefiting from chiropractic. But it all depends upon what you want.

Temporary Relief

Depending upon your problem, how long you’ve had it and countless other factors, we’ve seen patients enjoy relief in as little as a visit or two. Yet, without continued care they're inviting a relapse of their original problem since healing supporting muscles and ligaments happens with continued care after symptoms subside.

Patch or Fix

After enjoying a reduction in your original symptoms, it’s wise to continue your care so more lasting changes can be made. Some find that it can take months of care to see a lasting resolution of their problem. Again, it varies from person to person.

Prevention and Wellness

Many of us choose to continue our chiropractic care on a periodic basis—even when we’re feeling great. Our objective is to stay well after we get well. This way we can better deal with life’s stresses before they become full blown problems. It’s based on the same wisdom of having periodic eye or dental exams.

We offer choices so you can benefit from chiropractic care for as long as you wish. After all it’s your health. You should be the one to decide.
