What's the main difference between standard medical care and wellness care?
Standard medical care attempts to treat a symptom by using a procedure or substance from outside the body, such as surgery or a medication. This focuses on the symptom instead of addressing the underlying cause of the problem.
The wellness approach looks at the whole body and lifestyle of a patient, including stress and nutrition, to find the underlying causes of any disturbance or disruption. This type of shift in care seeks to turn on the natural healing ability to heal and works with the body rather than fight against it.
Chiropractic Care
We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing state–of–the–art chiropractic techniques, specifically Gonstead full spine adjusting. This corrective method is safer, more comfortable and more effective than previous techniques. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Philip Kogler has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment and has been recently ranked as “Bellevue’s Best Chiropractor” on http://www.ratemds.com while he was practicing in Bellevue, Washington.
Gonstead Correction
Dr. Clarence Gonstead found that the proper health and function of the spine centers on the optimal health of the spinal disc. Patients receiving corrective care in our office experience the ‘Gonstead difference’, including a specific form of cervical (neck) adjusting that is designed to maximize long-term stabilization and correction.
Corrective Exercises
We teach our patients special “blueprint” exercises individually created to help support their chiropractic correction process. These exercises can be performed at home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction by as much as 30-40%. These exercises and stretches can also help your body stay in balance and in health.
Lifestyle Advice
Our goal is to help each and every patient achieve a satisfying and happy lifestyle filled with the activities they enjoy the most. But it can be very helpful for patients to receive coaching on lifestyle choices, including avoiding or adjusting certain activities that might adversely affect their health. We help our patients reach true health by recognizing each patient as a whole person, and that treatment is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.
Nutritional Assessment
Do you know which supplements and vitamins provide the best benefits for your health? We offer specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance each patient's return to optimal health. Dr. Philip Kogler can provide a structured nutritional program based on your individual needs.
Spinal & Postural Screenings
Unlock the door to improved health and well-being with posture and spinal screenings. These can reveal important health information and prevent problems before they occur. Screenings can be arranged at community events, health fairs and places of employment. Contact us today to arrange a screening at your event or workplace.
Massage Therapy
Adding massage therapy to your chiropractic care program can be highly beneficial; it addresses soft tissue in a complementary way. Massage increases circulation, reduces swelling and inflammation, and promotes healing by removing waste products while bringing nutrients to your tissues. Recovery is normally faster and more complete when you address multiple components of your pain. Our Massage Therapists work directly with the Chiropractor to maximize the benefits of your visit.
