Your First Step Toward Lasting Wellness
If you're experiencing pain or discomfort, our primary focus during Phase 1 is providing rapid relief while beginning to address the underlying causes. Relief Care is the critical first stage of your chiropractic journey—designed to reduce symptoms and set the foundation for complete healing.

Beyond Temporary Symptom Relief
Many patients begin chiropractic care seeking relief from specific symptoms: back pain, neck discomfort, headaches, or other health challenges. During this initial phase, we focus on:
- Reducing Pain and Discomfort: Using precise adjustments to provide immediate relief
- Decreasing Inflammation: Addressing irritation in tissues surrounding misaligned vertebrae
- Restoring Basic Function: Improving mobility and reducing restrictions
- Identifying Root Causes: Understanding the underlying factors contributing to your condition
- Building the Foundation: Beginning the process of correcting structural issues

“I am someone who had significant neck issues and they were addressed from the moment I arrived. I used to have 2-4 headaches a week and approx 2-4 migraines a month. I am now having about 1 migraine every 6 months and probably 1-2 headaches per month, usually when my sleep is poor.
I truly love this place and am proud to be a part of the Impact community”

What to Expect During Relief Care
Personalized Plan
Based on your examination findings, we create a customized Relief Care plan that addresses your immediate concerns while preparing for longer-term correction.
Frequency of Care
Most patients begin with 2-3 visits per week for 4-6 weeks, though this varies based on:
- Severity of your condition
- Duration of the problem
- Your overall health status
- Individual response to care
Beyond Adjustments
Your Relief Care plan may include:
- Specific spinal adjustments
- At-home care recommendations
- Posture and movement guidance
- Targeted exercises
- Soft tissue techniques
When Does Relief Care Transition to Corrective Care?
As your symptoms begin to subside, we'll conduct progress evaluations to determine when you're ready to transition to Phase 2: Corrective Care. Most patients experience significant relief within their first few weeks, though complete symptom resolution varies based on individual factors.
The Importance of Completing Relief Care
While it might be tempting to discontinue care once pain subsides, this often leads to incomplete healing and symptom recurrence. Relief Care is just the beginning of your journey toward optimal health. Completing this phase fully prepares your body for the corrective work needed to address underlying structural issues.
The path to lasting wellness begins with relief but extends far beyond symptom management. We invite you to experience comprehensive care that addresses both your immediate concerns and long-term health goals.
