Our Philosophy

admin — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 14:00:37 +0000

There are many stages of care when you are injured or sick. We at Hawthorne Chiropractic Rehabilitation Centre believe every patient should be guided through all these stages to not only get better faster, but to prevent further injury and illness.

Stage One: Pain Relief

Most patients who come to our clinic are in pain. The first and most important part of your care is a proper and complete diagnosis of the cause of injury. Here at HCRC we strive to not only make sure that you are properly diagnosed but to assure we educate you on exactly what is wrong, how we are going to help you and how long it is going to take for you to get better. Your care in the first stage involves both reduction of your pain and discomfort as well as assisting you to move and function better day to day.

Stage Two: Recovery

Once the pain has reduced and the function is beginning to return our treatment involves continuing to assist you in restoring the full function of the injured area. Continued assisted treatment, at home stretching and education you on the do’s and don’ts of your daily activities are important through the healing phase. The inflammatory phase, or the bodies natural healing process can last anywhere from 4-6 weeks for the average patient. It is important to continue treatment through this period to assure proper function, proper healing and to reduce the chance of re-injury.

Stage Three: Performance

Performance can come in many forms. We assist all our patients, from the elite athlete to the weekend warrior to maintain health, prevent injury and to physically excel at their chosen athletic or day to day goals. Once normal function has been restored and the healing phase is complete we now turn our focus to your future health care goals. We talk to each individual patient to assure all your health care needs are met. Looking at your activities of daily life will give us direction on how to reduce the chance of further injury. This can involve monthly maintenance treatment to keep you functioning optimally or prescribing an at home stretching and strengthening program. For the competitive or even the weekend athlete can prescribe sport specific strengthening and conditioning programs to help you to increase your performance.

If you, or someone you know is in any one of these three stages of care please come see us to see how we can help you every step of the way.
