At Touch Healing Wellness & Med Spa we not only want you to feel better, we want you to BE better! We would like to welcome you to our unique facility by offering you an in-depth consultation with Dr. Mike Rivers, our Doctor of Chiropractic. After the consultation he will perform a thorough examination and determine if any further tests are necessary. At the conclusion of this evaluation you will receive your first Adjustment. Chiropractic adjustments usually involve a quick thrust that helps add motion to spinal joints that aren’t moving right. Some methods use the doctor’s hands, an instrument, a special table or the force of gravity. Dr. Mike uses many different techniques to adjust the spine and he has adjusted all types of people from newborn babies, to athletes and grandparents!
Dr. Mike will explain the findings of your evaluation in detail, and will make specific recommendations to help achieve your desired outcome. Some of those recommendations may include: Massage Therapy, Exercise, Stretching, Nutrition & supplements, as well as other lifestyle factors that affect your overall health. Touch Healing Wellness & Med Spa offers a variety of services that restore and revitalize your body!
Regular chiropractic checkups are as vital
as regular dental visits. You should have
them even if you “feel” well since they help
prevent future problems and help you stay in
good health.
After receiving a careful examination and treatment, some patients feel significant improvement rather quickly. Some individuals will notice “soreness” following their first adjustment, similar to what you might experience following vigorous exercise. Others may feel a little worse than they did before the adjustment. These sensations are actually Normal! The Chiropractic Adjustment changes in seconds, what most likely took years to develop. It is important to report significant changes on your daily visits, so that we can monitor your progress and help you regain your health quickly.
Holistic Chiropractic care has proven to
be a safe, natural, drug-free way to
good health for millions of people
around the world.
There are many simple things you can do to help speed the recovery process. Here are some simple suggestions:
You might remember from biology class that your body is more than 70% water, so for some people eight 8oz. Glasses per day just isn’t enough. We recommend that you divide your body weight in half and that’s how many ounces of water you need per day. Ex. If you weigh 150 pounds you need 75 ounces of water per day minimum.
Avoid high fat foods as they actually increase inflammation and slow down the healing process.
The old saying ” Rest does a body good” are words that ring true. It is important that you get rest so your body can recover.
Use this opportunity to establish some new habits. Start by following your care plan, it’s based on clinical experience and scientific research to help you get the best possible results. Each visit builds on the progress made from the one before!
