Frequently Asked Questions in Cape Coral

How quickly a person responds to chiropractic care can vary greatly depending on the length of time the vertebral subluxation has been in their spine, though most people feel immediate improvement. It is important to remember that even though you may feel better, the underlying condition may take much longer to correct. When a condition has been present for long time, PAIN is the last thing to show up and the first thing that disappears. In many cases it may take several adjustments or a series of adjustments to make permanent changes in the spine.

Our office does not push 3x a week for many months treatment plans with thousand of dollars up front. If your problem is minor then there is a good chance your total number of visits would reflect this. If your problem is chronic in nature (has been present for months or years) then your total number of visits to get to relief will obviously take longer.

Different people have different reactions depending on their condition (i.e. presence of swelling, inflammation and muscle spasms). The amount of time the condition has existed and the person's degree of sensitivity play key roles in this. Many people however will feel the following: peace and relaxation, relief of symptoms, and an overall improvement. As you continue your chiropractic care, your spine and nervous system continue to release deep seated stress, you may begin to notice better balance, smoother movement, and as a result, more energy.

Patients may find their symptoms have begun to disappear, and the problems that initiated the visit to the chiropractor have begun to lessen after the first visit. Some patients feel no difference after an adjustment. This does not mean they are not benefiting from their adjustments, but rather they're not feeling any external reaction. The true benefits of chiropractic care are the preventive benefits: a better night’s sleep, more energy and better nerve system function.
