PREVENTIVE CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Your chiropractic care begins with an
initial examination
by Dr. June Gentle, after which x-rays
may be recommended to determine the seriousness of your condition. In addition to being
adjusted, you may be given exercises, diet suggestions and ways to improve your posture.
Beyond the initial examination, your care may extend through three phases:
-
Acute Care. The objective of this phase is to provide pain relief by
mitigating the discomfort and stabilizing the condition in the shortest amount of time.
Corrective spinal adjustments alleviate pain and improve your chances of a full,
uncomplicated recovery.
-
Rehabilitative Care.
This phase of treatment aims at correcting any underlying
spinal injury as well as strengthen the muscles, improve spinal function and provide
more complete or optimum healing of tissues and organ systems.
-
Preventive Care.
This phase of care is intended to maintain your improved
health and spinal function. Regular attention catches small problems before they
become serious. Come in for your once a month tune-up. Prevention saves time
and money by helping you stay well adjusted, flexible and free from
subluxations ( the term used
to describe when your bones go out of alignment).

Spinal Adjustments
Spinal adjustments are the basis of chiropractic treatment. Dr. June Gentle's adjusting
techniques lend themselves very well to the treatment of all patients, from the very
young to the very old. The approach we choose will be the one that works best for each
individual.
Family Wellness Care
Routine spinal examinations and adjustments keep your spine healthy, allowing your body to
naturally prevent illness and maintain good health.
And just as preventive spinal exams are important for adults and adolescents,
chiropractic care is also important for your children. Many structural problems that may not
cause pain until later years are the result of childhood injuries.
Postural Analysis for Scoliosis
Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine that is a hereditary
condition. It can also develop due to constant stress from an over use syndrome from a
certain career. If caught in its earlier stages, scoliosis can be treated
possibly, without braces, by a chiropractic.
