Receive Care as Long as You Like

We’ve all heard the joke, “How many chiropractors does it take to change a light bulb?

Only one but it takes 100 visits.”

Funny. Ha-ha.

The fact is, you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. Many folks choose to continue their chiropractic care on some type of periodic basis for the rest of the lives. Others choose to see us from time to time for episodes of neck or back pain. It’s your choice. However, this concern is prompted by two common questions:

“Will I get addicted to chiropractic adjustments?”
Benefit as long as you like.

No. Many people feel a pleasant sense of ease and well-being after their chiropractic adjustments. Some feel as though their power has been “turned on.” Others feel more whole or “connected.” (This is what “normal” feels like!) Once people experience this feeling they often choose to adopt some type of ongoing schedule of care so they continue to feel this way all the time. It’s not an addiction.

“Why are so many visits necessary?”

By the time many people consult our practice, they’ve had their problem for some time. Retraining muscles and ligaments that support the spine takes time. Each visit builds on the ones before. Remember, you’re doing the healing, not the chiropractor!

How long you decide to benefit from chiropractic care is always up to you.

Dr. Thompson Asks some important questions of interest to Monroe residents - Chiropractor Monroe Dr. Thompson Asks...

How do you know when you're healthy?
Ask most Monroe residents this simple question and you're likely to hear, "When you feel good" or "When you're at your proper weight for your height" or "When you have lots of energy and vitality." Great answers. But our chiropractic patients know that true health is when your body is working as it was designed. True health is how you function, not how you feel.
Are aches and pains good or bad?
While aches or pains may be unpleasant, they're merely warning signs. As a Monroe chiropractor, I see this all the time. The pain is not the problem! It just means a limitation has been reached and something needs to change. That's when we get to work correcting the underlying cause.
