Regular Visits

After the time investment of your first three visits, some people are concerned that every visit is equal in length.

Avoid relapse with regular visits.

They are not. A typical office visit may require just 5 to 10 minutes.

But don’t think the brevity of a regular visit reduces its value! With the groundwork laid, we can quickly assess the state of your spine and nervous system, adjust you and get you on your way.

Like a regular workout at the gym, each visit builds on the ones before. Miss a visit and you can lose the momentum necessary to make the needed changes.

We recognize your time is valuable. So we do everything possible to run on time and minimize the interruption to your busy life!

Each visit you will be greeted by a smiling face at the front desk. Our office seeks to be a fun and relaxing environment for you to unwind. We seek to be a catalyst for helping you make and sustain healthier lifestyle choices.

We love questions, so be sure to ask a lot of them!

Progress Assessments

Periodically throughout your care, we perform Progress Assessments to measure your changes. A similar assessment to the one you have on your First Visit helps us to chart progress. This is a time for you to share the changes in your health and the different lifestyle choices you have been making to help you get better results.

On the visit following the Progress Assessment, Dr. Jonathan will go over the results with you and make further recommendations for your care. With the momentum established from the intensive schedule during the early part of your care, we can often reduce your visit frequency without sacrificing continued progress.

The Danger

About this time, many people start to feel significantly better. They’re often tempted to discontinue their care. And of course, how long you benefit from chiropractic is always up to you. Please note that you are more likely to experience a symptomatic relapse if you discontinue care before we have stabilized your spine and nervous system. This is part of the retraining process to create a stronger, more adaptable body! This strengthening is in the second stage of care, after symptoms disappear. Just like exercise, the more you do it, the stronger you get!

Just let us know so we can support your decision.

Dr. Jonathan  Asks some important questions of interest to Mackay residents - Chiropractor Mackay Dr. Jonathan Asks...

How do you "catch" a cold?
Simply lower your resistance by avoiding the proper rest and exercise, eating lots of sugar and junk food, putting up with emotional stress and neglecting your nervous system by avoiding your chiropractor. You won't have to catch a cold because it will catch you!
Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
