Tired of being handed prescription after prescription but not getting better? Seeking a natural way to address your discomfort and improve your health and quality of life? We get it, and we’re here for you.
At Radiant Life Chiropractic, Dr. Scott takes a unique approach to treating chronic pain. Instead of focusing solely on the area of discomfort, he looks at the bigger picture to address the root cause of the problem.
The Posture-Pattern-Part Connection
Dr. Scott explained, “Most people start coming in here have pain of some sort, and it’s in a specific region of their body.” However, he believes that chronic pain is often not the fault of the specific body part. Instead, it’s a result of poor postures and patterns that lead to premature breakdown.
Starting from the Bottom: Posture Assessment
The first step in our approach is assessing posture. Dr. Scott emphasized this importance.
“We’re going to start with postures as this is where you’re spending most of your time sitting at a desk, computer use, cell phone, tablets,” he said.
These prolonged positions can become permanent, affecting overall health and movement.
Moving Up: Evaluating Movement Patterns
Once posture is addressed, Dr. Scott evaluates movement patterns. This involves a functional assessment to understand how a patient’s body moves in everyday situations. Identifying and correcting poor movement patterns can prevent further stress on specific body parts.
The Chiropractic Assessment: Putting It All Together
Finally, Dr. Scott performs a chiropractic assessment to understand the patient’s structural issues. By addressing posture and movement patterns, many patients experience relief from pain and improved mobility as a byproduct of this comprehensive approach.
A Custom Care Plan for Lasting Results
We then create a custom care plan using a four-step corrective system. This approach aims to provide longer-lasting results by addressing the root cause of pain rather than just treating symptoms.
