Dear Practice
Member,
Most patients
wonder what to expect after their first adjustment. There are three
common responses.
First the
possibility is that the patient can actually feel worse! While
is rare, this can be caused by the examination process earlier,
or because of the changes made to the spine. Ever get sore
after overexertion in the garden or raking leaves? Same thing here.
Another possibility
is that after the first adjustment you immediately start feeling
better. While obviously welcomed by patients, this can give the
false impression that the problem is fixed. However, without retraining
supporting muscles and soft tissues with more visits, patients often
experience a relapse of the original problem.
The most
common response is practically no response! By the time some patients
consult our office, they've had their problem for months, sometimes
years. This can make recovery slow. The good news is that the cause
of their problems is being addressed, rather than simply numbed
by drugs.
How will
you respond?
Regardless
of your response to your initial adjustments, we hope you'll give
your body time to fully heal. Join the millions who have enjoyed
relief and better health without drugs or surgery!
Sincerely,
Dr. Hung
