Introduction to Corrective/Restorative Care
Once pain relief has been achieved through Relief Care, the next step is Corrective/Restorative Care. While you may no longer be experiencing significant discomfort, your spine and muscles still require healing and strengthening to maintain proper function and prevent future issues.
At Midlands Spine Center in Lexington, SC, we focus on addressing the root causes of spinal imbalances, improving posture, and enhancing mobility to ensure long-term spinal health. This phase is crucial for achieving lasting results and preventing recurrence.
Goals of Corrective/Restorative Care
Corrective/Restorative Care builds upon the foundation set in Relief Care by working to correct spinal misalignments and reinforce stability. Our approach includes:
-
Correcting Misalignments: Addressing spinal subluxations and posture imbalances.
-
Strengthening Muscles & Ligaments: Enhancing spinal stability to prevent future problems.
-
Enhancing Flexibility & Function: Improving movement and promoting proper alignment.
-
Preventing Recurrence: Ensuring long-term spinal health and reducing the likelihood of future pain.
Common Techniques Used in Corrective/Restorative Care
This phase of care involves continued chiropractic adjustments combined with targeted therapies designed to restore spinal integrity and optimize movement. These include:
-
Chiropractic Adjustments: Maintaining proper spinal alignment to support healing.
-
Intersegmental Traction (IST): Gently stretching and mobilizing the spine to improve flexibility and circulation.
-
Therapeutic Exercises: Strengthening and stretching routines to enhance spinal stability.
-
Postural Training: Educating patients on proper sitting, standing, and movement habits.
-
Lifestyle Modifications: Ergonomic guidance, sleep improvements, and stress management strategies.
Duration of Corrective/Restorative Care: What to Expect
The duration of Corrective/Restorative Care depends on the severity of the condition and individual healing progress. Typically:
-
This phase lasts a few months, as the body gradually strengthens and adapts.
-
Visits may be reduced to 1-2 times per week, depending on progress.
-
Healing continues even after pain relief, making consistency essential for long-term success.
-
Once spinal stability and function have been restored, treatment transitions to Wellness/Maintenance Care to sustain results.
