Pain Relief Offered in the Portland and Tigard Area

Your body has to go through a specific healing process so it can repair itself correctly and fully. When you build a house, if you put the walls up before the foundation, the walls would not hold up very long. If you put the roof on before the walls were ready, the roof would collapse!

Something has brought you to our website, and that issue will lead you to our office. Our first order of business is to find out what has gone wrong and help you feel better. We use in-office care and also give you instructions for home care so you will get out of pain faster and heal more quickly than if we only treated you in our office. Because of the tremendous effectiveness of our techniques and treatments, this is usually the shortest period of care. Some conditions are more complicated and take longer.

After stabilization, your body will be fairly well equipped to handle the problem that brought you to our office. Now, it is essential to repair the issues that led you to the office. You see, in stabilization, we are ensuring your muscles and soft tissues are well equipped to hold your body properly so you will not re-injure yourself easily. During correction, we work on the more rigid parts of your body and seek to reform the ones that made your muscles weak and led your problem to develop in the first place. It is during the correction part of care that your body will truly start to change into a stronger, more efficient system that will be unlikely to fall victim to the stresses on your body. During the correction phase, care in our office becomes even less frequent than in stabilization, as your work will be supplemented by our care to ensure you are progressing properly and at a good pace.

After you finish the correction phase of care, you have a choice: wait until the next breakdown and go through the whole process again; or move forward with periodic care and attention to health habits and principles we provide access to through our office, gaining an ever-improving lifestyle and advancing toward optimal health.

Wellness is our desire for all our patients, but pursuit of this goal is a personal choice that every person must make for themselves. If YOU wish to pursue true wellness, we will be very happy to assist you in achieving your goals. It's about YOU, and what YOU want for YOUR future. We will be standing by to help you when you are ready to walk this path with us!
