Phase 1: Fell Better In Fort Collins CO
RELIEF CARE
3-5 Visits per week
Goal: reduce pain and provide relief of symptoms (This often requires more frequent visits). During these visits we focus on:

Now that the initial symptoms have subsided, it is time to use chiropractic adjustments, active exercises or other modalities to create strength and stability within the spine. While your symptoms may be reduced or even gone completely after Phase 1, damage to the structure and soft tissue likely remain and will require Phase 2 and 3 to provide a lasting spinal correction.
