Phase 1 Relief Care

Thumbs Up to Relief

Many people go to a chiropractor because they are in pain. In this first phase of care, the main goal is to reduce your symptoms. Sometimes this will require daily visits, or two to three visits per week for a time.

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. When you begin chiropractic care, pain is also the first symptom to disappear, even though much of the underlying condition remains.

Dr. Matthew Richter is a very knowledgeable, compassionate Chiropractor. I have been treated by Dr. Richter for various issues over the last 8 years and have always been very satisfied with the results. He is caring and sensitive to his patients and knows what treatment works for different conditions. I highly recommend Dr. Richter and his clinic.

I want to thank you so much for your incredible help. I came into your office without an appointment, only an incredible pain shooting through my lower back that had been there all day. I woke up and knew something wasn't right, but I tried to get through the day. As a teacher who stands on her feet all day and travels, it was not an easy task.

I have never in my life been in such constant, agonizing pain. Thankfully, I was seen that day, and after treatment, my pain lessoned. I came back the next day for treatment, and all that was left was a little soreness but no actual pain.

I have continued for follow up treatments and have been feeling fantastic.

My 2 year old son had severe reflux and asthma problems that were related to his reflux. He was on 6 different medications and 2 steroid inhalers. Dr. Richter gently adjusted him on two separate occasions and since the adjustments he has had no more symptoms. We took him off all medication and he is symptom free. Even through this tough winter he has had no breathing treatments. He can now live a normal healthy life of a 2 yr old. Thank you so much Dr. Richter.

For over a year I suffered from lower back problems that caused pain down my leg. I wasn't able to stand for long periods of time, it hurt to lay down, and bending over was nearly impossible. I had been to the doctor several times, had x-rays, and physical therapy and nothing seemed to help.

My mother suggested I try chiropractic and after the first adjustment I felt like a lot of pressure was released off my lower back. Dr. Richter decided to try decompression therapy and with every treatment the pain was less and less severe to the point where I didn't even notice the pain.

I can now stand, sit and bend over with no pain. I am an athlete and my back was preventing me from working out and performing at my best. I now feel 100% and am able to squat and power clean with no irritation. I feel great!

I was suffering from constant pain and inability to sleep well at night. I also was unable to take long walks with my husband. Dr. Richter suggested that I try decompression therapy for my back. Since I have been on the Spinal Decompression Program the pain is gone, I can take 3 mile walks and do normal house hold chores witout pain. The numbness in my toes has subsided as well.

I was getting really intense migraines, my shoulder was bothering me on a daily basis and my fibromyalgia was acting up during the night, where I couldn't get a good night sleep. After treatment here with Dr. Richter, my back and shoulder do not bother me on a daily basis and my fibromyalgia does not act up as often as it did before. When it is bothering me I take some natural supplements that Dr. Richter suggested and it enables me to sleep without the pain. My activity levels have also gotten better with treatment. I can walk longer distances and I can enjoy life much more without the headaches. Also I am so happy and relieved not to be taking the prescription medication anymore. Dr. Richter cares so much about his patients and their well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any side effects or associated risks?
During more than twenty years of use by healthcare providers all over the world, very few side effects have ever been reported. Occasionally some old injuries or pain syndromes may feel aggravated for a few days, as the healing response is more active after treatment.
How long does each treatment take?
The typical course of treatment is five minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. How often should a patient be treated? Acute conditions may be treated daily, particularly if they are accompanied by significant pain. More chronic problems respond better when treatments are received 2 to 3 times a week tapering to once a week or once every other week, with improvement.
How many treatments does it take?
This depends on the nature of the condition being treated. For some acute conditions 1-6 treatments may be sufficient. Those of a more chronic nature may require 10 to 15 (or more) treatments. Conditions such as severe arthritis may require ongoing periodic care to control pain.
How long before the results are felt?
You may feel improvement in your condition (usually pain reduction) after the very first treatment. Sometimes you will not feel improvement for a number of treatments. This does not mean that nothing is happening. Each treatment is cumulative and results are often felt after 3 or 4 sessions.
Does it hurt?
What does a treatment feel like? There is little or no sensation during treatment - occasionally one feels mild, soothing warmth, or tingling.
