What is therapy?
A broad term, therapy can refer to any treatment that stimulates healing or symptom relief. At Post Oak Chiropractic, the emphasis is on noninvasive therapy to help patients with acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term) pain recover fully and quickly.
Who needs therapy?
Therapy is beneficial for anyone who experiences an injury, such as car accidents, sports injuries, and workplace injuries.
By nature, injuries are an unexpected and unwelcome disruption in your life. Therapy can ease your pain and, when combined with other recovery approaches, ensure you can get back to your life very soon.
Therapy can also help anyone with chronic pain due to arthritis, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, or other age-related conditions.
How does therapy work?
Therapy is just one aspect of your comprehensive care at Post Oak Chiropractic. A three-pronged treatment approach gives you the most complete healing. It includes:
Chiropractic adjustments
Chiropractic adjustments involve gentle hands-on movements that improve balance in your spine. This corrects problems like misalignment and abnormal pressure on the delicate tissues around the spine.
Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation focuses on rebuilding your body after an injury. It involves targeted exercises to stretch, strengthen, and improve flexibility and range of motion.
Therapy
Therapy is the third part of the comprehensive care equation at Post Oak Chiropractic. In general, therapy focuses on pain relief, so it’s a crucial aspect of injury care, especially early on when you’re in a lot of pain.
There are a suite of effective therapy options, such as massage, heat therapy, cold therapy, and other innovative natural treatments.
How long does therapy last?
Your first visit to Post Oak Chiropractic lasts just over an hour. Following that, appointments generally take 45-60 minutes. At the beginning of your treatment, you discuss the recovery plan with your provider and learn the recommended amount of sessions.
Generally, your appointments include chiropractic adjustment, rehabilitation, and therapy. The practice is set up to provide all three of these in a streamlined way so you don’t have to waste time traveling to get the multifaceted care you need.
