Healing is a Process

Similarly, healing is accomplished cell by cell. It takes time. Since many health issues result from years of neglect, it can take just as long, or longer, to make positive changes. The speed of your recovery is dependant upon many factors and can’t be rushed You may hit some plateaus along the way, but that doesn't matter. Just keep a positive attitude!

Dr. Tiffany Asks some important questions of interest to Peoria residents - Chiropractor Peoria Dr. Tiffany Asks...

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?
Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.
Are aches and pains good or bad?
While aches or pains may be unpleasant, they're merely warning signs. As a Peoria chiropractor, I see this all the time. The pain is not the problem! It just means a limitation has been reached and something needs to change. That's when we get to work correcting the underlying cause.
