What to Expect
Laying the Foundation for Total Health
Chiropractic care is like building a house – certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work correctly. When building a house, if you tried to put up your walls before you had a solid foundation, your walls would be weak and eventually collapse. If you tried to put on your roof before the walls were ready, you would run into the same problem. The same is true for your body. Your body has to go through a particular plan of care in order to repair itself correctly and fully. There are three general phases of chiropractic care:
Phase 1: Relief Care
When you first visit Cornerstone Family Chiropractic, our main goal is to help reduce your pain and discomfort as quickly as possible. During this phase, we focus on relieving pressure, improving mobility, and helping your body begin the healing process naturally. Many patients seek care for issues such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, muscle tension, or joint discomfort.
Depending on your condition and symptoms, care may be recommended two to three times per week for several weeks. As your body starts to respond to treatment, many patients notice improved movement, less stiffness, and better comfort during everyday activities.
Phase 2: Corrective/Restorative Care
Once you begin feeling better, the next step is to focus on correcting the underlying issues that may have caused the problem in the first place. During this phase, chiropractic care helps support proper spinal alignment, muscle balance, posture, and overall body function.
Corrective care allows muscles, ligaments, and other soft tissues more time to heal and stabilize, which may help reduce the risk of future injuries or recurring pain. Treatment frequency is often reduced during this stage, but consistency is important for long term improvement and recovery.
Phase 3: Wellness Care
After your body has had time to heal and recover, many patients choose to continue with wellness care to help maintain their progress. Wellness chiropractic care focuses on keeping the spine and nervous system functioning properly so you can continue to move, feel, and function at your best.
Regular chiropractic visits may help support better posture, flexibility, mobility, and overall wellness while helping reduce everyday stress and tension on the body. The frequency of visits varies based on your lifestyle, activity level, and personal health goals.
