Relapse

It’s tempting to discontinue care as soon as you feel better. Especially if you think being healthy is about how you feel.

A New Idea

Since pain and other symptoms are the last thing to show up, they are the first to resolve. However, true healing begins after symptoms subside. Continuing to see us when you’re feeling great, is a new idea for most people. Especially insurance companies!

The Problem Returns

Without sufficient retraining and strengthening, many spinal problems return. It could be months or years later. Please don’t blame us, or chiropractic! Come back in and resume your care. After all, your records will be here, along with our genuine concern for you and your health.

A Healthy Habit

After a couple of these "stops and starts" many practice members decide to come in on a regular basis to support a healthy life. Like brushing, flossing and other healthy habits.

Dr. Jim Asks some important questions of interest to South Portland residents - Chiropractor South Portland Dr. Jim Asks...

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?
Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.
How come medical doctors don't recommend chiropractic?
That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more South Portland folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.
