One downside of being called "doctor" is that people think they should only see you when they are not feeling well. In reality, chiropractic care can help even when you feel fine. It's very much like keeping a musical instrument fine-tuned; the more it's used, the more it has to be tuned. This is very much the case for your spine and nervous system. Unlike a musical instrument, our body does fine-tune itself most of the time. The chiropractic adjustments we make are more of a reminder, if you will. Most of the people we see come initially for the treatment of some sort of ailment and discontinue care once they are feeling better. About a third of our patients, continue with maintenance care even if they are feeling fine. Maintenance can often mean the difference between getting healthier, rather than just staying well.
