Self Care and Well-Being
One of the most profound benefits of choosing Sikeston Chiropractic is also the hardest to define. Until a person has felt the general sense of betterment in the body and mind that follows an adjustment, words will have a tough time communicating a feeling that must be experienced to be understood.
This may sound odd to some people (while sounding like absolute truth to others,) but receiving a chiropractic adjustment can simply feel...good. I've had patients compare the experience to turning on a light switch, or a breath of fresh air. Some say they feel relaxed, energized, balanced, or "lighter." For some of my patients, their regularly scheduled adjustments feel like a treat. For some, our sessions feel like an essential part of their self care and well-being. For nearly all, it's a very positive experience. I consider myself very lucky to be one of the rare doctors that patients actually look forward to going to see when it's time for an appointment.

So many of the benefits of a chiropractic adjustment are able to be documented, assessed, and examined as physical fact. Then there's this other benefit of general well-being that doesn't "fit" inside that box. It can't be x-rayed, or measured, or tested...but for some of my patients, it is the most real benefit that can be derived by allowing themselves this act of self-care at Sikeston Chiropractic.
