Phase 3: 

Maintenance is Key to Healthy Living

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. This is why our clinic utilizes specific lab tests to establish early signposts in the decline of your health.

Consider a cavity in your tooth. Does it hurt when it first develops or only after it has become serious? How about heart disease or diabetes? 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. When you begin care, pain is also the first symptom to disappear, even though much of the underlying condition remains. Therefore once you begin it is vital to complete the full restoration of your health.

Once your body has begun to heal, continued care and lifestyle changes can help ensure that your health problems do not return, and that you keep your body and mind in optimal condition. Maintaining your exercise program and eating well will sustain the benefits of your care program. It is also helpful to continue treatments to maintain your progress and realize real healing.

When you make routine care a part of your lifestyle, you avoid many of the aches and pains that so many people suffer through, your joints will last longer and you will be able to engage in more of the activities you love.
