Chiropractic and exercise go together very well.
After an adjustment, if somebody sits on their butt, their spine will lock up that much faster. This will require more care than somebody that moves regularly.
When somebody develops spinal subluxations (spinal cavities), it affects their ability to control muscles throughout the body by altering proprioception (body position sense nerves). This can lead to motor control errors and injuries. This is why we recommend getting checked for subluxations before a workout.
For the times we "tweak" something in the gym, our patients also use our office as a safety net. Increasing our personal fitness sometimes comes with bumps and bruises. This is a small price to pay to avoid preventable chronic disease like heart disease, cancer and diabetes.
Make sure your spine moves well, THEN move well in between the visits.

The good news is that starting with chiropractic plummets surgery rate from 43% to less than 2% with MRI verified disc issues.
Before undergoing surgery, please come in for an evaluation at Spinal Health Center. If we accept you as a patient, we look forward to watching you achieve spinal health without surgery.

If anybody from a peer reviewed article is reading this, we have an awesome idea for a future study. Study participants must have gone through 6-12 weeks of chiropractic adjustments. For the 2% that still ended up in surgery, what was the success rate. At Spinal Health Center (based on simple logic and 15 years of clinical experience) we assume that the spinal surgery success rate will drastically increase.
Most chronic spinal disease involves a loss of mobility. The use of chiropractic increases mobility in spinal joints that have lost healthy mobility. This is the reason why for the majority of people, we can prevent surgery. For the small select few patients that still end up in surgery, fusing joints should be much more successful considering that increasing mobility did not resolve the issue.

Option 1: Make an appointment proactively on your own time. You're in and out of the office to run testing in 30 minutes. Dr. Stear evaluates testing (often 30-45 minutes to do properly) to go over at a later. You enjoy your time on your own and schedule a visit at your convenience to go over the results.
Option 2: You walk into the office without an appointment in agonizing pain. We work in between patients to run testing and analysis of the testing. Hours later we begin care. No different than the ER.
We are 100% here to bring you to spinal health regardless of which option you choose. Please try option #1. It is so much more enjoyable.

A specific chiropractic adjustment is like tuning a guitar. Sometimes a string needs to be tightened and sometime it needs to be relaxed. NORMALIZING spinal mobility allows the nervous system to coordinate dozens of muscle contractions allowing your spine to move without effort.
This is the biggest reason why exercising through spinal injuries or having your uncle Bob "crack" something in your spine is not as effective or as safe as an adjustment. Those other options attempt to just increase mobility instead of normalizing mobility.
We look forward to watching patients move without effort the same way we enjoy hearing a song from an instrument that is in tune.
Is your spine "in tune"?

If you feel like your doctor is prescribing the same drugs everybody else gets or gives the same adjustment to every patient, it may be time to undergo care tailored to how you have injured your spine.
Some patients need traction/some don’t.
Some patients need neck traction, some need mid back traction.
Some patients need their C1 adjusted some need their C6 adjusted.
Some patients need their L5 adjusted from the right, some from the left.
This is why we cannot tell you what it will take to fix your issue over the phone. (That would be cool though).
