Frequently Asked Questions

Most management plans fall between 6 to 8 weeks in length.

Following your Initial Exam, the provider will make a recommendation regarding how frequently you should present for therapy. For most patients, this is no more than 1-2x per week.

A standard appointment is 60 minutes. The first 15ish minutes are hands-on with manual therapies to reduce your symptoms, while the remaining appointment time is devoted to in-office rehab.

Absolutely not! In most cases, you don't need to stop activity due to your pain condition or the devised plan. We may need to alter some of your exercises or scale down certain movements, but it is not likely that you would need to stop altogether!

This is okay! We recommend going through an initial exam to see if what we can provide at PhysioDelta is more adapted to your personal goals. Many chiropractic practices do not offer the personalized management strategies and education offered at PhysioDelta.

Some diagnoses may prevent you from receiving hands-on techniques such as spinal adjustments, but it is not likely that any medical conditions would prevent you from rehab protocols.

Each hands-on therapy and rehab exercise is carefully chosen and altered to fit your specific diagnosis, goals, and activity level. This is so each management plan is catered to who you are as an individual, because what may work  for someone else, may not work for you - even with the same diagnoses.

If you are committed and ambitious enough to go through a rehab plan for your pain condition, then your activity level going into therapy won't matter! We will break down every drill and exercise so you are accommodated early on while still providing you with effective care that will improve your diagnosis. Later, as you become stronger and more resilient, rehab will get easier regardless of your activity levels.

Absolutely! To maximize your chance for long-term benefit it is necessary to continue with the assigned rehab drills when not in the office. The more you incorporate your exercises in your spare time, the quicker you'll get better and the greater your chances for your body to adapt positively.

It will be determined at your follow-up assessment if you need to continue with care beyond the initially prescribed management plan. Most patients have the necessary tools, education, and exercises to continue on their own outside of the office once they have been discharged. However, you may always elect to continue with care in the office at a frequency that is agreed upon by you and the provider for any further care.
