Pain is a signal. We read it before we adjust anything.

A chiropractor checks the spine and the joints around it for spots that move poorly and may be adding to your pain, then may use targeted adjustments to help restore normal movement. At WLF, that check starts with a full movement assessment, because low back pain often starts at a spot that moves poorly somewhere else.

The first visit opens with the movement assessment, not the table. Where the findings point to a joint restriction, an adjustment can happen that same visit. Where they do not, we tell you that instead, and the plan starts where the findings actually point.

Then we say so. WLF reads all six pillars, not just the spine, and care starts where yours points. Sometimes that is performance training, recovery, or medical work instead of an adjustment. We would rather tell you what we found than sell you the wrong thing. The free intro call is where that conversation starts.

Most chiropractic visits open with the adjustment. Ours opens with a movement assessment, so the adjustment is aimed at what we actually found instead of applied as a default. Functional rehab is built into the plan, not offered as an upsell after the fact.

Functional rehab is exercise work that retrains the movement habit that let the problem build. An adjustment can get a joint moving again for the moment. Rehab is what helps that change hold once you are back to normal life, whether that is a workout, a work shift, or a golf swing.

StemWave is a form of shockwave therapy that may help support recovery in certain soft-tissue and tendon conditions. It is used selectively, as part of a broader plan built around what your assessment shows, not applied to every visit.

It depends on what the movement screen finds and how your body responds to the plan built from it. WLF does not quote a visit count before we have actually looked. Book a free intro call and we will walk you through how that first read works.
