Repeated Visits

Strengthening and retraining the muscles and soft tissues that support your spine will take more than one visit. In the same way you can’t get in shape with a single workout at the gym, we’ll recommend a program of care.

Your Recovery

How many visits will it take? That depends:

• The extent of your health goals
• Your age, condition and lifestyle
• How much stress you experience
• Following our recommendations
• Implementing home care procedures

The Sweet Spot

If visits are too frequent, our efforts may be wasted since your body may not have fully integrated the changes from the last one. If your visits are too far apart (or you miss one!) we may not be able to acquire the “momentum” needed to affect real change. Each visit builds on the ones before.

Over the years, we’ve come to know what visit schedule produces the greatest effect with the fewest number of visits.

Dr. Opp Asks some important questions of interest to St. Francis residents - Chiropractor St. Francis Dr. Opp Asks...

Can someone who has had back surgery receive chiropractic care?
Yes. Rest assured that we will avoid the surgically modified areas of your spine. However, what we find is that surgical interventions will often produce spinal instability above or below the involved level. This is will be the focus of your chiropractic care.
Would you rather feel good or be healthy?
Ask most people in St. Francis and they want to feel good. Careful! Would you take medicine that makes you feel good, rather than vomit to expel improperly prepared food? Every chiropractic patient knows that you can't measure your health by how you feel. True health is when your body works as it should.
