What is chiropractic wellness care?
Wellness care is entirely optional. Some patients prefer to come in occasionally to address stiffness before it builds up, while others return only when something flares up. Both are reasonable choices.
Each wellness visit starts with a quick check of how you're moving and feeling, followed by care such as adjustments if appropriate.
