Acute Vs. Proactive Chiropractic Care
Acute Care: This is when you seek chiropractic treatment when you are experiencing pain and stop when the pain is gone.
Proactive Care: This focuses on preventing problems before they start, rather than just treating existing pain or symptoms. This involves chiropractic treatment on a regular basis, either weekly, bi-weekly or monthly even when symptoms are absent. The idea is to maintain proper spinal alignment and joint mobility for optimal body function, prevention of future pain and injuries and improved overall well-being.
Most patients in this category started out as acute care patients and have decided after the issue was resolved to be proactive in maintaining mobility in the joints of their spine and extremities.
