Pain … such a tiny, simple word used to describe an immense influence in your life if you suffer with it.
Pain is broken down into three stages:
- Acute - an episode of pain lasting less than 3 months.
- Recurrent - repeated episodes of acute back pain symptoms.
- Chronic - an episode of back pain symptoms with a duration longer than 3 months
The intention of our care at Arctic Chiropractic, Sitka is to relieve your pain as swiftly as possible, teach you the skills to potentially prevent recurrences, and provide you a means to manage the pain so that it doesn't constrain you and your life. All this begins with the identification of your pain.
