URGENT CARE FOR PAIN

When Your Back Simply "Goes Out"

Whether it feels like a pinched nerve or your spine has just locked up, we know you’re looking for a simple solution. Our first goal is to arrest the pain cycle, un-clamp the muscles, and get you back on your feet.

STEP 1: THE SAFETY CHECK

We Make Sure It’s Safe to Help

Before we provide any treatment, we perform a clinical triage. We aren't just looking for where it hurts; we are screening for "Red Flags" that might require a different type of medical intervention. If we clear these, we move forward with care.

THE HEALING TIMELINE

Stabilization is the Beginning, Not the End

Most patients feel a significant "release" during the first visit, but serious pain is rarely a one-visit fix. Your body has spent days or weeks in a protective spasm. Arresting that pain is the first step toward restoration, but it usually takes a few more sessions to keep the "clamping" from coming back

STEP 2: BREAKING THE CYCLE

Targeted Treatment for Fast Relief

The adjustment "un-clumps" the system, but the next 24 hours are critical. We provide a specific, easy-to-follow guide on using ice, heat, and gentle micro-movements to ensure the inflammation continues to clear and your muscles don't lock back up.

PHASE 3: STABILIZATION

What to Expect in the Next 48 Hours

Most patients feel immediate "release," but an acute flare-up is rarely a one-visit fix. Because your muscles have been in a protective spasm, they may try to "re-clamp" within a day or two. At this stage, you face a choice: continue with Focused Pain Care to stay mobile, or move into a Restorative Plan to identify and fix the underlying structural weakness that caused the collapse.

Knowledge is the Best Prevention

An adjustment fixes the joint, but education fixes the habit. During your evaluation, we analyze your 'normal life' movements—how you sit at your desk, how you lift, how you sleep—and provide the tools to change the patterns that caused the pain in the first place.
