The goal of the treatment is to help the patient reduce pain, restore motion, and prevent a recurrence using different modalities such as spinal manipulation, acupuncture, massage and other therapies such as Hydromassage, Mechanical Traction, Vibration, EMS and supplemental support.

Why is it important to follow your chiropractic and acupuncture treatment?

Most of these issues didn’t happen overnight and typically do not respond 100% after just ONE visit. Be patient with your health.

Remember, healing is never linear, but constantly moving in the right direction is important. Healing takes time! Some days will be better than others, but do not give up!!!

What to expect with a treatment plan?

Your Go Health provider will do a detailed consultation and exam (Xrays if needed) at your first visit. After evaluating and determining the cause of the problem and discussing your healthcare goals a detailed written treatment plan will be discussed. This will include how many visits a week, therapies in the office that will be performed, dietary recommendations, supplemental recommendations, and at-home exercise.

The Minnesota Chiropractic Association and Minnesota Acupuncture Association has created a guideline for treating and managing various neuromusculoskeletal issues, so your Doctor of Chiropractic or Doctor of Acupuncture will use these guidelines to help create your individual treatment plan, but your involvement means you have a greater chance of success. Typically, every 10-12 visits, your healthcare provider will re-assess your treatment plan making sure to tweak things as needed.
