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. Doug  Asks some important questions of interest to Oakdale residents - Chiropractor Oakdale Dr. Doug Asks...

What's your plan to deal with drug-resistant 'super germs'?
Chiropractors have always been concerned with the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, accelerating the mutation of microbes that make "wonder" drugs increasingly ineffective. My strategy? Do everything possible to bolster my immune system through proper diet, rest, exercise, clean air, pure water and an optimally functioning nervous system with regular chiropractic care.
What's the difference between maintenance, prevention and wellness?
Maintenance chiropractic care is an attempt to keep a dynamic, ever-changing and adapting organism (you) in a static relationship with your environment. Preventive chiropractic care is mostly about early detection. Wellness chiropractic care is an attempt to optimize our health and be all that you were designed to be.
