Your Second Visit to Our Roanoke Practice

Dr. Parker Adams, Roanoke  Chiropractor

Your second visit will likely last less than half the time of the first one–probably less than half an hour. We’ll have a short audio tape or video for you to watch before you see the doctor. After that, you’ll get to visit the changing area again and then meet with Dr. Adams to go over your plan for care. He’ll discuss with you the underlying causes of your health condition and what it will likely take to fix the problem. You’ll have the choice to “patch” or “fix” the problem.

Whether your goals are to only obtain relief or engage in wellness care after you’ve gotten relief, you are the boss and we are simply your servants. You’ll also receive your first treatment, which will likely be a spinal adjustment. Considering that chiropractic may be a brand new experience for you, Dr. Adams will explain every step so you can be as comfortable as possible. He’ll give you some parting instructions and a care plan forecast for the next few days and you’ll be on your way to getting your things together and checking out with the front desk staff.

Dr. Parker Adams Asks some important questions of interest to Roanoke residents - Chiropractor Roanoke Dr. Parker Adams Asks...

What's the difference between sick care and health care?
Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
What causes subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.
