Chiropractic works because you are a self-healing, self-regulating organism controlled by your nervous system. Millions of instructions flow from your brain, down the spinal cord and out of every organ and tissue. Signals sent back to the brain confirm if your body is working right. Improper motion or position of the moving bones of the spine called a subluxation can interfere with this vital exchange by irritating nerves and compromising the function of affected organs and tissues. Specific spinal adjustments can help improve mind/body communications. Health often returns with improved nervous system control of the body.
CONSULTATION: Dr. Miller meets with you to discuss your medical history, including any current or past health issues and injuries. He may inquire about your lifestyle, daily activities, and any specific concerns related to your musculoskeletal health.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: A physical examination may lead to services such as x-rays, blood work or other diagnostic testing.
DISCUSSION OF GOALS: Dr. Miller will discuss your health goals and what you wish to achieve through chiropractic care, whether those objectives pertain to pain relief, improved mobility, or general wellness.
REPORT OF FINDINGS: After evaluating your neuromusculoskeletal system, Dr. Miller will discuss your diagnosis, treatment plan, and financial responsibility.
TREATMENT: Once your individualized plan is determined and discussed Dr. Miller may perform a hands-on spinal adjustment during the first visit. This involves applying controlled force to specific joints to correct misalignments and improve spinal function. Depending on your plan, alternate therapies may be implemented.

Seek evaluation by your health care professional as soon as possible after a work related injury or a car accident. This will help minimize the long term effects of your accident. Dr. Miller specializes in treating patients injured at work or in car accidents.
After an injury such as a sprain, inflammation sets in and lasts for 24 - 72 hours. During this time, apply ice for 10 - 20 minutes on and 10 - 20 minutes off. Elevate the injury as much as possible (Above the heart if possible). Heat should be applied after the inflammation phase is over, and should be applied in increments of 20 - 30 minutes at a time.
The safety of chiropractic care has been well documented in professional journals of all kinds. Serious side effects of chiropractic manipulative therapy occur approximately one out of every one million adjustments. Compare this to the serious side effects of medicines and surgical errors to put safety in perspective. Research reveals that 51% of approved drugs have serious adverse effects not detected prior to approval. Merely discovering adverse effects is not by itself sufficient to protect the public. Each year prescription drugs injure 1.5 million people so severely they require hospitalization and 100,000 injuries result in death, making prescription drugs the 4th leading cause of death in the United States.
