What is Chiropractic Care?

Chiropractic care is a manual healthcare approach that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing conditions related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system, and joints. Chiropractors use hands-on techniques such as spinal adjustments, joint manipulation, and other therapeutic interventions to improve mobility, reduce pain, and restore overall function. This type of care is often used for conditions like back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint issues, and other neuromusculoskeletal disorders.

Chiropractors take a holistic approach, understanding that the body’s systems are interrelated. By addressing imbalances in the spine and nervous system, chiropractic care aims to optimize your health and well-being. It’s a drug-free, non-invasive way to find relief and promote healing.

Our Approach to Chiropractic Care

At Apollo, we combine various treatments and techniques to ensure you receive the most effective care. When you visit our clinic, our chiropractor will take the time to listen to your concerns, review your health history, and perform a comprehensive assessment to understand your specific needs. This typically takes between 45 to 60 minutes and includes:

• Postural Analysis: The chiropractor will assess your posture to identify any misalignments or imbalances that could be contributing to your pain or discomfort.
• Range of Motion Tests: Testing the range of motion in your joints helps determine areas of stiffness or dysfunction.
• Orthopedic and Neurological Tests: These tests help identify the source of your symptoms and guide your treatment plan.

After the assessment, our chiropractor will discuss their findings with you and recommend a personalized treatment plan. This may include spinal adjustments, manual therapy, stretches, and exercises to help improve mobility, reduce pain, and restore function.

What to Expect on Your First Chiropractic Visit

Your first visit to our clinic will involve completing some paperwork, including a health history form and clinic policies form. Afterward, the chiropractor will guide you to the treatment area, where they will conduct a thorough assessment. This assessment is key to developing a treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs. Once the evaluation is complete, the chiropractor may perform some hands-on treatments, including spinal adjustments, stretches, or other manual therapy techniques. You may also be given exercises to do at home to aid in your recovery.

Our goal is to help you achieve lasting results, and we are committed to providing the support and guidance you need throughout your treatment journey.
