Adaptation is Key: Yes, Even Beyond Covid19 ;)

As we are amidst our third province-wide lockdown in Ontario it's pushed me to reflect on how and why we do what we do: from all things Covid19 and pandemic-y to activities of daily life to interactions and treatments in clinic. At this point in the game, it's no surprise that many of us have had to adapt to change in one way or another. Whether that's been returning to working from home, coping with not being able to spend holidays in person with loved ones or even dealing with the additional stress of just everything going on and changing so rapidly. Routine is a very difficult thing to grasp right now, and that's okay. The important thing is that we continue to adapt to whatever is thrown our way.

How does this relate to chiropractic care? The answer is the concept of adaption. Adaption of new literature, adaption of new evidence for/or against specific treatments, and  adaption of bringing this new knowledge into clinical practice.

What does that mean for you? It means that when you come in for chiropractic care, you can expect treatment beyond cracking. It means that the issue you're coming in for will be treated with a combination of education, rehabilitation, muscle work, and joint work. The latest evidence suggests that the combination of these 4 aspects of treatment is superior to just 1 of them alone.

Education: Understanding what is going on with your body is crucial to taking the mystery and confusion away from it. It means that the pain you're experiencing will become less scary. Knowledge is power and will be important to help you properly rest, strengthen and recover from your injury. 

Rehabilitation: Many injuries occur because something in your body is being subjected to more than it can handle. Most of the time, strengthening the area of your body that is being overworked will lead to drastic improvements in decreasing your pain and also help prevent the injury from reoccurring. This is because that area of your body is now stronger and able to take on more without feeling uncomfortable, sore or achy. 

Muscle and Joint Work: This will provide relief from pain so that you can move more comfortably and get what you need to get done. 

When you come in for chiropractic care, you can expect Dr. Brenda Yee to be up to date with the latest evidence in manual therapy and provide you with the best evidence-based care so you can have the smoothest road to recovery as possible.
