Relief Care
As a new patient, you obviously have pain or concerns that need to be addressed promptly. At first you may need to visit our office two or three times weekly, this will allow for concentrated treatments to reduce or eliminate the symptoms that are occurring. This phase of chiropractic care is considered the Relief Care Phase.
Many people go about their daily lives pain-free and without any symptoms believing they are healthy, the truth is sometimes pain alone is not the indicator that something is wrong. Many health conditions have no symptoms whatsoever but can be very serious conditions, such as, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, etc.
Spinal problems are one of the few conditions that will generally be accompanied with pain as a first symptom, and can be reduced or eliminated through chiropractic treatments.
Corrective Care
After receiving Relief Care and eliminating or reducing your symptoms, some may believe there is no need for further treatments, actually the Corrective Care phase is a very important step needed to restore, heal, and prevent symptoms from recurring. Your condition will determine the amount of treatments needed to complete the healing process. To help improve and accelerate the healing process you can perform certain exercises at the clinic, or in the comfort of your own home.
This phase could take a few months or more depending on the seriousness of your condition. Soreness or flare-ups may occur and are completely normal.
Wellness Care
Now that you are healed and feel better than ever, routine chiropractic care will help to ensure that this feeling will never fade away. A program including regular adjustments, exercise, and a healthy diet will help ensure the health of your musculoskeletal system.
The Wellness Care phase will give you the benefit of living life to the fullest.

When my son Blake was 3 weeks old he was diagnosed with sleep apnea. Every time he would sleep he would fall into such a deep sleep that he would forget to breathe. His doctors put him on an apnea monitor that he wore all day. If he would stop breathing for 20 seconds the monitor would start beeping to notify me and I would then wake him or startle him enough that he would catch his breath. I brought him to see Dr. Grice. After his 1st adjustment, that day, I noticed improvement. From then, Blake was adjusted 2-3 times per week and he would breath normally throughout his days and nights. If I had missed or needed to change an appointment, even for one day, the monitor would alarm numerous times per night. Just after his 1st Birthday, he grew out of the apnea. I have faith that Dr. Grice assisted in Blake’s recovery from his condition. Now Blake plays football for the Brookline Knights and we maintain his chiropractic care, with as well as the care for my other two sons, my husband, and myself. I am very grateful for everyone at Grice Chiropractic and how our lives have benefited because of them.
