Wear and tear, also called osteoarthritis, on the spine is what plaque is to teeth: even if we brush and do our best to prevent it, deposits can still form on teeth.

During the intake, we will discuss your symptoms in detail and perform a scan of the spine. We show the results and we explain where subluxations occur and exactly what that means.
We also look at your posture and muscle tone. After the examination, you will immediately receive your first correction. Often quite a relief after which you will experience more freedom of movement.
We will always recommend an intensive start-up period. Whether you suffer from many symptoms or not, it is important that your body learns to adopt and maintain proper posture. When there is too much time between the first corrections, it is more difficult to build this memory.
Once your spine gets used to the new alignment, we enter a less intense phase.
Usually, after the intensive period, it is enough to return monthly for what we call “maintenance. In fact, due to everyday stresses of life, we all get “stuck” on a regular basis. Some people like to come more often or less often.
What works for you is very personal, we will find out what works well for you.
