It’s incredible how quickly time moves!  Already nearing the summers end, blessed with fantastic weather, and all our schedules racing towards the start of school!  It’s no wonder that people lose track of their health maintenance.   Yes, I said maintenance – like you do with your car – only it’s more important.   Did you know that?

How many of us change the oil, and rotate the tires in our ride, but fail miserably in the body department.  I tell my patients that good chiropractic maintenance depends on the body.  Athletes require more frequent maintenance visits, as do manual workers, but typically most people can get by on 2 visits per year.  Yes, that’s right 2 visits.

You’re probably wondering then why your visiting a chiropractor 5 times a week, right?  The answer depends on your spine – if you’ve had an acute injury or if you have a chronic musculoskeletal problem , then you require more frequent visits.  Just remember that this type of care shouldn’t  last forever.   Eventually your chiropractic should get you to a maintenance schedule.   Your spine is self adjusting if you take care of it, and if you don’t, then give us a call at 573-468-6011.  We are Premier for a reason!
