Six Weeks To Wellness


Are you suffering from back, neck, or other musculoskeletal pain that is preventing you from meeting your fitness goals?  Are you missing workouts because of pain?  Have you been told to stop running or exercising because of your pain?  If so, we think we have the program for you - Six Weeks To Wellness.


This program is designed to offer our patients a comprehensive program of chiropractic adjustments and therapeutic exercise designed specifically for them.  The program typically lasts six weeks and includes 2 chiropractic visits and 2 hour long exercise therapy visits per week. The chiropractic portion of the program will focus on manipulation, while the therapeutic exercise portion of the program will focus on the patient’s physical fitness concerns.

Six Weeks to Wellness asks for a commitment from the patient for the 6 weeks. The program addresses the patient as a whole rather than focusing on a specific body part as is common with regular physical therapy.  If you have an injury, we'll work with you to make your injury better, but also to keep the rest of your body healthy while you heal. This program works really well for patients with chronic conditions that cannot get into an exercise program on their own, as well as patients recovering from a specific injury.  The goal is to keep exercising while also respecting and treating the patient's pain  The combination of the chiropractic and the specific exercises allows patients to get healthy faster and stay healthy.

Patients will have a  flexibility and strength assessment performed by our therapists to  determine areas of weakness and instability.  A customized exercise program will then be determined with 3-4 exercises for each area of concern.

Reassessments will be performed midway through and at the
end of the program so patients can see their progress.  Many patients lose weight, and everyone feels better when the program is finished.  If you think you may benefit from our Six Weeks to Wellness, talk to one of our chiropractors!
