✅ 5 DO’s as a Chiropractic Patient at Valley Chiropractic
1. Do Follow Your Personalized Care Plan
Each of our chiropractors designs a plan tailored to your lifestyle, posture, work habits, and goals. Consistency is what leads to lasting results — especially for desk workers, athletes, and busy parents.
2. Do Communicate Any Changes
Whether you visit our Tracy, Ripon, Mountain House, or Manteca office, always let your doctor know about:
• new pain
• changes in sleep
• stress levels
• activity changes
• how your body responds after adjustments
This helps us fine-tune your care for faster healing.
3. Do Stay Active Between Visits
Short walks, gentle stretching, and the posture resets we teach in-office make every adjustment work better. Healing happens between appointments just as much as during them.
4. Do Use the Ergonomic Tips We Provide
Our doctors across all four offices specialize in desk-worker posture, lifting mechanics, and sleep positioning. Applying these at home and work helps prevent flare-ups.
5. Do Ask Questions & Stay Engaged
At Valley Chiropractic, patient education is one of our strengths. If you're curious about what we’re adjusting, why it matters, or how it improves your health — ask away. We love explaining.
❌ 5 DON’Ts as a Chiropractic Patient at Valley Chiropractic
1. Don’t Expect a One-Time Fix
Most spinal and nerve issues develop slowly over years. Our four offices work together to deliver corrective, long-term care — not quick temporary relief.
2. Don’t Skip Your Home Care
Ignoring stretches, hydration, or posture advice slows your progress. A few minutes per day goes a long way toward stabilizing your spine.
3. Don’t Rely on Pain as Your Only Measure of Healing
Pain can disappear before the underlying imbalance is fully corrected. Functional improvement — posture, strength, mobility — is what keeps you stable for life.
4. Don’t Overexert Yourself Just Because You Feel Better
Once symptoms calm down, it’s easy to overdo it. Returning to intense workouts or yard work too soon is one of the most common causes of setbacks.
5. Don’t Hide New Symptoms
If you experience numbness, weakness, dizziness, or anything unusual, tell your chiropractor immediately — at any of our locations. Your safety is our top priority.
