Welcome to Signature Spinal Care located at 16440 Ellerslie Road Southwest in Edmonton, AB. We understand that choosing a chiropractor is a big decision. This article will help you learn the basics of chiropractic care. Please don't hesitate to contact our Edmonton chiropractors with any further questions you have.

Most people believe that chiropractors treat back pain. That is true, but there is so much more that chiropractic care can achieve. Because chiropractors help to remove pressure from the nervous system, they can also influence many other conditions. It is common to hear chiropractic patients say that they came in for back pain and their headaches got better.

The Benefits of Chiropractic Care
At Signature Spinal Care we offer 3 levels of care based on what your Chiropractor has recommended and the results our practice members are looking for!
CORRECTIVE CARE
Corrective care is recommended for patients and our practice members looking to make a significant improvement to their health. Corrective care is based on exactly that, making corrections to your spine, extremities, muscle asymmetry, nerve function and overall health. Following a comprehensive examination, which typically includes x-rays, Dr. Langley will prescribe a plan to achieve optimum function. Your future self will thank you for it!
MAINTENANCE CARE
Maintenance care is recommended for practice members that have completed their recommended corrective care plan and want to maintain the work they put into their body. Maintenance care is also recommended to patients that come into our clinic and are already healthy! Perhaps they have seen a Chiropractor before, or they maintain a healthy, active lifestyle already.
WELLNESS CARE
Wellness care is recommended for anyone seeking wellness checkups. Our wellness care practice members range from seeing us a few times a year for a tune-up, before a marathon or after an event like a weightlifting competition, a golf tournament, or a football game.
Chiropractic Explained
If you are looking for an explanation of how chiropractic care works this paragraph is for you. A concise scientific explanation of chiropractic is that adjustments directly affect muscle and bone structures by reducing pain and increasing joint motion.
That's a lot to take in, but it is the explanation as to why some chiropractic patients in Edmonton report improvement in body function. This is not a claim that chiropractic adjustments treat disease, but it does suggest that some people will see improvements in conditions that are outside of the treatment area.
The Education of a Chiropractor
Most patients don't realize how much education chiropractors in Edmonton have. Chiropractors are held to some of the most intense educational standards of any health field. In fact, their education standards are very comparable to that of a medical doctor. After completing a strong emphasis of basic sciences in college, chiropractors attend a four-year chiropractic college. This means that chiropractors are primary care practitioners. In other words, you don't have to have a referral to see a chiropractor.
