Most patients consult our office because they have an ache or a pain. Their goal? Relief. That's our first objective.

We'll conduct a thorough examination, revealing areas of spinal dysfunction. Based on the findings of your examination, we will prepare and offer a care plan designed to give you the best results in the shortest amount of time. Our goal is to go beyond the short-term relief and work to correct the underlying issues.

When you begin your road to recovery, visits are frequent. Each visit builds on the one before, so keeping your appointments will help you get the best results.

Often what happens next changes everything.

After a series of visits, you'll start feeling better. And, in feeling better, you might decide to cut back on your visits or stop treatment altogether. But, if you continue your treatment, we'll be able to treat your muscles, and soft tissue that left untreated could cause a relapse.

When you continue your care, visits will become less frequent, and progress will be less dramatic. However, the healing continues, and you move into what we call "Wellness Care." In this phase, your body is supported to do and feel its best.

We also understand that sometimes you don't have a choice about when you end your care. Whatever you choose, we're here to serve and help support you in your decision.

Your health affects everything you do and everyone you know. With so many people depending on you, it makes sense to invest in your health.

A program of chiropractic checkups can help you be the caring parent, the loving spouse, the understanding friend, or the dependable employee.

Invest in your health. You're worth it!

There are many, many causes of subluxations (misalignments in the vertebrae) that can inhibit optimal health. While they are not avoidable, it helps to recognize these causes so that treatment can be sought when they occur.

Here are five common causes of subluxations and what you can do to feel better.

1. Sleeping 'Wrong' — We've all experienced this, waking up in the morning with a crick in the neck, a sore back, or even a stiff shoulder, all from sleeping 'wrong.' All it takes is keeping your body in an awkward position for a period to make the subluxation happen. When we're asleep, we don't know this is happening until it's too late.
2. Desk Work — Our bodies are not meant to be stationary for long periods of time and this holds especially true with desk work. If you have a desk job, chances are your body suffers from frequent subluxations which might be further compounded if you also have posture issues.
3. Long Car Rides — No matter what the manufacturers say, there's no such thing as a comfortable car seat, especially if you have to sit in it for long periods of time either with a commute or long-distance travel. If you're unable to make frequent stops to get out and stretch, this can be problematic for your alignment.
4. Mowing the Lawn — Pushing and pulling a mower can cause significant trauma to your back and the connective muscles and tissues, especially if you have a large yard, steep terrain, or excessive grass growth to deal with.
5. Carrying a Purse — Purses have become catch-all containers for all things we deem necessary for our day-to-day comings and goings. Whether your purse is carrying your wallet and makeup or more substantial items like a laptop or books, the extra weight carried on one side of your body is enough to wreak havoc on your back. Do this every day, and the damage adds up.

What to do if you've suffered one of these subluxations:
If your body isn't feeling quite right due to one of these common subluxation causes, relief is just a phone call away. At Pure Life Chiropractic, we can provide an assessment of what is going on with your spine, address and make suggestions for how to adjust your daily living so you'll have better spinal health, and provide the necessary treatment (typically an adjustment) so you'll start to feel better.
