Michaux Family Chiropractic works on many fronts to help take your health to newer and higher heights. In addition to our chiropractic care we also offer the FirstLine Therapy program as part of our holistic approach to health and wellness. When patients first come to our clinic they are often seeking relief from pain associated with some type of personal injury accident or a chronic illness such as osteoporosis, diabetes and fibromyalgia. While chiropractic care can help restore your spinal column to its natural alignment, and is also a valuable component of the rehabilitative process, the health of our patients is sometimes complicated by a chronic illness which is wearing them down and affecting their ability to function normally.

Complex conditions such as osteoporosis, diabetes and fibromyalgia have long-term debilitating effects. They can lead to difficulty moving, fatigue, apathy and a general feeling of not being able to do everything you want to do. Sometimes these conditions are made even worse by stress and poor lifestyle choices. If poor nutrition and eating habits are added to the mix, the patient can get caught in a constant downward spiral.

Because we want to help you feel better every day in every way, Michaux Chiropractic offers FirstLine Therapy as a way to help manage, reduce the risk of, and possibly reverse the effects of a chronic illness on your body. More than just a nutritional protocol, this therapy is a personalized lifestyle medicine program that includes exercise and stress management as part of a whole body approach to dealing with chronic conditions.

Lifestyle Enhancements with FirstLine Therapy

If you are experiencing a chronic condition such as diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or osteoporosis, it was most likely caused by a number of factors. That’s why it makes sense that a number of approaches need to be taken when working to reduce the impact of these conditions. While you may understand that better health involves improving your nutrition and exercise levels, it may be difficult to know how to begin to make the necessary lifestyle changes. FirstLine is a therapeutic lifestyle modification program that helps you through those difficult phases as you begin to rebuild your life from a healthier point of view.

With our professional supervision you’ll learn to establish realistic goals to help improve your own health, discover how to shop for and eat healthy and nutritious foods, find out how to exercise in a healthful way that builds muscle, and gain skills that will help you better relax and manage the stress in your life. As your lifestyle skills grow, you’ll see that many of the symptoms associated with your condition are slowly beginning to fade away. As you start to feel better, you’ll want to do even more to continue down the path to a healthier life.

Michaux Family Chiropractic wants to become your trusted partner in helping you live the healthy and pain-free life you were meant to have. If you would like to learn more about what FirstLine Therapy can do for you, call our office at 352-243-7300 for an appointment today.
