Relief Care
Dr. Moramarco has been caring for Woburn chiropractic patients for nearly 25 years. If you are in his office, he knows you probably have pain or concerns you want addressed immediately.
Chiropractors refer to this type of care as relief care. Depending on your individual findings and condition, Dr. Moramarco may treat you on your very first visit, or perhaps he'll have you return in a day or two to discuss examination findings and commence care to address your pain. In either case, please be assured it is his intention to relieve your pain as fast as possible.
During relief care, visits may be frequent to facilitate healing. We want you to feel better as quickly as possible! This is accomplished through adjustments, therapy modalities, and corrective exercises. Any or all may be recommended. Therapy modalities may include electrical muscle stimulation, cold laser therapy, ultrasound, ice or heat. In addition, the recommendation of unweighted exercise, stretching, nutritional supplements, massage therapy and corrective exercises may also be utilized.
The frequency and length of visits will be dictated by how your individual body responds. Your age, state of health, how long you have had the condition and lifestyle will determine how long it takes for your body to heal under chiropractic care.
Dr. Moramarco understands that some patients will choose only to relieve pain. He recommends corrective care, but it is entirely your decision whether or not to proceed with this next phase.
Corrective Care
With your most troublesome symptoms gone, corrective care focuses on the long-term correction and implications of a condition. At this point, visit frequency is cut back and emphasis turns to regular adjustments, life-style changes, self-care and making sure your body maintains the improvements attained during the pain relief phase. Although pain is no longer present, it is not uncommon for joints, muscles, and other soft tissues to take a significant amount of time to heal completely. This is an important reason to continue with chiropractic. It is the treatment during this phase that ensures complete healing and improves the odds of preventing relapse.
Wellness/Maintenance
When the body is fully healed and you are feeling better, most patients, at this point, are enthusiastic about the benefits of chiropractic. Many patients choose to schedule regular appointments in order to be proactive regarding their structural health. Some visit our Woburn office monthly, others every six or eight weeks, some quarterly. The point is, it is your body, and your health. You decide what works best.
Getting on a chiropractic wellness program can help catch small problems before they become major ones. Wellness care helps patients feel their best, improve functioning, enhance performance on the athletic field, help prevent injuries and as a result may, in the long term, save time, aggravation, frustration and money.
Regular adjustments, exercise, a healthy diet, and the right lifestyle choices allows for optimal functioning of your musculoskeletal system.
