Once you have started chiropractic care, your treatment plan could  pass through three distinctive phases.  In each of these phases, the frequency of care will vary according to your specific situation.

Initial Phase:

In this phase of care your treatment might be be more frequent.  The main aim of this phase would be be to decrease your pain levels and begin to improve the function of your joints, muscles and nervous system.

Corrective Phase:

In this phase of care, your treatment will be less frequent.  The main aim of this phase will be to continue to improve but also maintain the function of your joints, muscles and nervous system.  During this phase you will be given a set of exercises and/or lifestyle to take home and practise in an attempt to re-train your body to maintain the corrections applied during treatment.

At Luck’s Yard Clinic we encourage the patient to take an active approach to their recovery and maintaining health.  We therefore discuss their lifestyle, work situation, diet and fitness choices to guide them towards good preventative measures for the future. Good posture is important to us, and we incorporate the education on this with each patient.

Communication

If we reach a plateau in our care, we feel it is important to re-evaluate and discuss the situation with the patient to find a treatment approach that might suit them better.  We believe in individually tailoring each care plan and nurturing a good one-to-one relationship with our patients.

If you have any queries regarding your health, we value your questions and encourage you to talk to us about it.  We are here to help you and need all the feedback we can get to properly help you in our care plan.
