Care built around the individual
Chiropractic care at Cormier Chiropractic begins with an evaluation of your symptoms, history, movement and goals. The plan depends on what Dr. Keith finds and what is appropriate for you.
Laying the foundation
Dr. Keith often compares care to building a house: a strong result depends on doing the right things in the right order. The exact course of care varies by person.
Relief Care
When pain is the main reason for the visit, the first priority is helping reduce symptoms and improve movement.
Corrective / Restorative Care
As symptoms improve, care may focus on restoring function and allowing irritated tissues to recover more fully.
Wellness / Maintenance
Some patients choose periodic care after the initial problem improves. This phase is optional and based on individual goals.
Common reasons patients visit
- Back and neck pain
- Headaches and TMJ complaints
- Sciatica and nerve-related symptoms
- Sports and overuse injuries
- Carpal tunnel complaints
- Appropriate disc-related complaints
Chiropractic care is not a substitute for emergency or medical evaluation when red-flag symptoms are present. Dr. Keith refers out when a problem falls outside the scope of chiropractic care.
