Between visits, you should experience changes within days including a decrease in intensity or frequency of pain. It is also important to maintain your home exercises. Within weeks you will experience improved strength and flexibility. Over time, as your body heals, you will receive a more advanced exercise routine to further your recovery. |
How you interact within your external day-to-day environment may be a contributing factor to a slow recovery. The causes may be related to improper body mechanics while gardening, playing a sport, or sitting at your computer to name a few. As our final pillar of healing, an off-site evaluation is recommended to provide residential or workplace suggestions and modifications in addition to your already customized home program. |
