People ask, Why should I have my spine evaluated when it doesn't hurt? That is a good question, and I will endeavor to give you a good answer. Many spinal conditions develop over a period of time. Initially, spinal disc degeneration may cause no pain at all. However, as the condition advances, it can become a painful and lifestyle altering condition. A spinal evaluation can detect developing problems, and appropriate treatment can alter the course of the condition with much less treatment and no disability at all. If you wait for pain to occur, it will often take more time to correct the problem. You should not wait for a toothache to see the dentist. You also should not wait for back pain to see a chiropractor. Spinal maintenance is based on each patient's need and unique condition. People who are more physically active with no arthritis will tend to need minimal maintenance care. People with degenerative arthritic conditions, with more sedentary lifestyles, may require more periodic attention. Remember, maintenance or wellness care is based on each patient's individual needs. Wellness care also includes recommendations to diet, nutrition, exercise, proper rest, and improving your overall lifestyle to achieve optimum health. Yours in better health, Michael J.
