What to expect with initial examination

With the first treatment  Dr. Howell will do a thorough history and examination to identify which structures are involved, and determine if you are a candidate for chiropractic care. The first visit will allow Dr. Howell to listen to your health concerns and goals, while identifying causes for pain and discomfort that you may be feeling.  The causes for your pain may be muscle injury, imbalance, and tightness, joint restrictions or a combination of both.


What to expect with treatment

Following a history and examination, Dr. Howell will explain the causes of your injury and anatomy involved. Once an individualized treatment plan has been made, Dr. Howell will address any of your concerns or reservations on treatment.

Well educated in sports medicine and rehabilitation, Dr. Howell may treat you using:

    • adjustments (to insure proper motion and biomechanics throughout the joints in the body)


    • physical therapy modalities, such as muscle stimulation and ultrasound


    • manual therapy of soft tissue (to break up any scar tissue or muscle tightness)


    • rehabilitation exercises and stretches


    • education on how to prevent a reoccurence of the problem

Prevention

Chiropractic care allows the body to function correctly. It is a scientific fact that your brain, spinal cord, and the rest of your nerves control every aspect of your body. Any imbalance in your spine can cause an adverse effect your overall health and performance.

Performance
On the job, on the track, on the court or anywhere, Chiropractic improves human performance. Chiropractic patients experience a higher level of performance and stamina in all areas of life, as their bodies function optimally from the inside out. You deserve to be your best. Why not experience life at the top of your game?

Quality of Life
Our lives are a direct result of the decisions we make. Because health is not a given, we must make decisions that impact our health every day. The goal of Chiropractic is to improve the quality of life by helping you to maximize your health.
