Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, River Forest Chiropractic emphasizes improving your health in an effort to reduce the risk of pain and illness in the first place.
Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could.
This is one of the main reasons for the big surge in the popularity of our wellness center.
For some, River Forest Chiropractic will take them back to a place that is cozy and familiar, offering a rediscovery of health and wellness that had been previously known but long lost.
We understand that arriving at a doctors office for the first time can be nerve racking.
Filling out paperwork, learning new faces and names, and getting to know your way around the office can be an overwhelming experience.
That's why at River Forest Chiropractic our aim is to remove any stress or causing unnecessary tension and to make you feel comfortable.
In this area of the website you will be able to take care of items necessary for your visit prior to arriving, in the comfort of your own home.
Chiropractic care is like building a house - certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work correctly.
When building a house, if you tried to put up your walls before you had a solid foundation, your walls would be weak and eventually collapse.
If you tried to put on your roof before the walls were ready, you would run into the same problem.
The same is true for your body.
Your body has to go through a particular plan of care in order to repair itself correctly and fully.
Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. Michael Heatwole to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options.
This initial visit is designed for Dr. Michael Heatwole to learn more about you, your condition, and expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.
After your consultation, Dr. Michael Heatwole will perform a complete chiropractic examination testing your reflexes and flexibility.
Other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests will be performed as well.
Most people are under the assumption that if they don't feel any pain that there is nothing wrong with them - that they are healthy.
Unfortunately, pain is a very poor indicator of health.
In fact, pain and other symptoms frequently only appear after a disease or other condition has become advanced.
For example, consider a cavity in your tooth.
Does it hurt when it first develops or only after it has become serious?
How about heart disease?
Regardless of whether you are talking about cancer, heart disease, diabetes, stress or problems with the spine, pain is usually the last thing to appear.
