Chiropractic Care

According to the Association of Chiropractic Colleges, “chiropractic is a health care discipline which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health.

Over 100 years ago, the chiropractic profession was founded on one basic principle – the body is a self-healing, self-regulating organism- and the nervous system is the master controller of this process. You were born to be healthy. If you are not experiencing true wellness, something is interfering with the process. Dr. Matt Lentz, and the Palms Chiropractic staff looks forward to welcoming you into their office to help you get on the road to a healthier you.

If you have tried everything and haven’t tried chiropractic, then you haven’t tried everything.

• No one knows if you need chiropractic care but a chiropractor
• No other health care professional has the years of training in school to teach them how to treat your spine with manipulation.
• No other health care professional has the same education as a chiropractor has, and if chiropractic care is what you need, then rolling else will help you.

Your treatment is determined by your diagnosis. A diagnosis is the first step in determining the problem. Additional studies may be necessary to properly make a diagnosis.

This may include physical therapy modalities, exercise programs, aqua therapy, joint and spine mobilization, transcutaneous nerve stimulation or TENS massage therapy, and psychological counseling.

If the treatment is ineffective and doesn’t relieve the pain, a referral to a qualified surgical specialist is then made.
