Here at PMR, we often talk about how our treatment plans are both comprehensive and holistic. Geared to the individual patient, most treatment plans are unique and may involve several modalities and specialists, depending upon the patient\u2019s specific needs and goals.<\/p>\n
But what do we really mean when we talk about holistic, comprehensive treatments? Though these may sound like buzzwords, they\u2019re actually extremely important core values that form the center of our approach to chiropractic care.<\/p>\n
All treatment plans at PMR begin with the same premise: every patient is an individual, and no patients are exactly alike. Although two patients may be suffering from the same aches, pains, and condition, that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean that they will respond in the same way to the same course of treatment.<\/p>\n
And it isn\u2019t just the ends that we take into account when developing individualized treatment plans at PMR\u2014the means are equally important. Patients have different needs, goals, and comfort levels, and each patient is given input and control when it comes to their own care. Your chiropractic specialists will suggest non-invasive modalities and methods of treatment, but we\u2019ll never recommend a form of treatment if it\u2019s undesired or uncomfortable.<\/p>\n
The result? Treatment that leaves you feeling not just physically better, but cared for and taken care of.<\/p>\n
Our care is consultative not only because your input is valued every step of the way, but also because we\u2019ll take the time to explain in clear, jargon-free terms exactly why we\u2019re doing what we\u2019re doing and how we believe it will benefit your condition and symptoms.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s comprehensive because we\u2019re willing and able to do whatever it takes to get you back on the right track, whether treatment is simple and short or very complex. Both of these principles are part of holistic treatment, and we take them seriously at PMR.<\/p>\n
One of the most important reasons that we can offer the holistic treatment that we do is that our centers incorporate several modalities. In fact, we believe that our unique combination of treatments, specialists, and technologies is what truly sets us apart from other chiropractic options. Everything from chiropractic spinal manipulation to acupuncture, cold laser therapy to ultrasound, nutritional counseling to massage, physical therapy to dietetics\u2014it\u2019s all here, under one roof.<\/p>\n
What does that mean for you? To begin with, it means that we can combine several modalities into practically limitless combinations as part of a patient\u2019s individualized treatment plan\u2014that\u2019s the essence of holistic care!<\/p>\n
For example, a patient suffering from persistent back pain may find relief through spinal manipulation combined with acupuncture and massage, while physical therapy may help them prevent future injuries, and nutritional counseling can help ensure their continued comfort and health, especially for problems related to inflammation or carrying excess weight.<\/p>\n
We believe that a complete treatment involves addressing all the sources and causes of pain and discomfort\u2014in other words, we\u2019re treating your condition at its roots, rather than just alleviating its symptoms. For the specialists at PMR, that\u2019s what holistic care is all about.<\/p>\n
Although part of holistic care refers to our comprehensive treatments, which incorporate multiple modalities (as mentioned above), holistic treatment also means that care is not only about physical wellness. Indeed, holistic care means that we pay attention to every aspect of wellness\u2014including mental, spiritual, and emotional health.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s easy to see why factors outside of the purely physical can influence our general well-being. For example, emotional problems may lead to symptoms similar to physical conditions, and mental disorders\u2014including depression, anxiety, and insomnia\u2014can have a significant impact on our health.<\/p>\n
At PMR, we do our best to apply our methods of care to any and all applicable conditions, with a holistic concept of health and wellness as our guide.<\/p>\n
To truly heal from an injury or condition often requires more than medication or medical procedures, although those may be important options for some patients and specific conditions. At PMR, we\u2019re acutely aware of this reality\u2014it\u2019s a part of our DNA.<\/p>\n
For our specialists, treating a patient means taking everything <\/em>into account. It\u2019s not just the symptoms\u2014it\u2019s the causes and the unique story of the patient. It\u2019s not just chiropractic, either\u2014it\u2019s all of the modalities and specialists under our umbrella, and even specialists and physicians outside of our facilities when necessary. And it\u2019s not just physical wellness, either\u2014it\u2019s a holistic sense of wellness that incorporates concepts of spiritual, mental, and emotional health.<\/p>\n It all begins in the same place, with the same principles. We understand that getting better comes from within, and true healing can only occur once we\u2019ve come to understand and appreciate each patient as an individual\u2014with needs, concerns, goals, and obstacles that are absolutely unique.<\/p>\n To begin your own journey toward true wellness\u2014inside and out\u2014pick up the phone and give the experts at PMR a call today.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here at PMR, we often talk about how our treatment plans are both comprehensive and holistic.
