Is Chiropractic Care really forever? Many people have heard the rumor that once you start chiropractic care you become addicted, or you have to come the rest of your life.<\/p>\n

This is one of the common misconceptions about going to a chiropractor. Some have the impression that once you start getting adjustments<\/a>, it makes you dependent on it for the rest of your life. In reality, chiropractic is not addictive<\/strong>\u00a0or habit forming. There are no effects on neurotransmitters in your brain, which is how\u00a0addiction to drugs<\/a>\u00a0occurs. Also, adjustments do not change your physiology to make you dependent on continued treatment.<\/p>\n

Dr. Courtenay Schroeder of\u00a0 ProMotion Chiropractic says, “…Nothing about chiropractic care is addictive. Just like getting massages is not addictive, nor is exercise. However, all three of these tend to make you feel good! Personally, I like to do things for myself that make me feel good. Yes, I work out and plan to do that forever. I also enjoy massages on a regular basis. Does that make me addicted to them? NO-That being said, some people choose to only seek chiropractic care for injuries and pain- relief, and once they are pain- free they stop care. There is nothing wrong with this! The more you are doing for yourself in between adjustments\/treatment the quicker you recover from an injury and the healthier you are overall. However, some people feel that chiropractic adjustments and treatments keep them feeling better overall and they choose to continue care on a less frequent schedule once their problem has been resolved. Think of regular chiropractic care as helping to prevent future injury and allow your body to function properly.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, the option is yours! You know your body best and what works for you. We are all so busy these days and it can be hard to make it in for an appointment. All we ask is for you to add yourself and your health to your daily to-dos. Even if it is a short 5 minute walk on your lunch break, or stretching at your office desk.<\/p>\n

And don’t forget to pay attention to your posture!<\/p>\n
