Why 'Therapeutic Care'
Our name was chosen to reflect an approach rooted in personalized, patient-focused treatment, going beyond traditional manual techniques to encompass a more holistic and collaborative model of care.
The words "therapeutic care" often imply treatments aimed at "curing" a condition or addressing mental health and emotional well-being. However, "therapeutic care" is integral to our identity, representing a multifaceted approach that fosters a strong therapeutic alliance between doctor and patient. Our method goes beyond manual treatment, focusing on an individualized, person-centered plan of care that aligns with each patient's goals. While specific treatment techniques play an important role in chiropractic care, they are only one part of our comprehensive approach to wellness. The name "Petropolis Chiropractic & Therapeutic Care" more accurately reflects our commitment to this rounded philosophy of care.
Our Approach
Our mission as a chiropractic clinic is to connect with each patient as an individual, learning about their habits, routines, activities, and the specific issue that brought them to our clinic. Our approach includes:
Minimizing the notion that people need "fixing";
Reminding patients of their body’s resilience and adaptability;
Teaching patients that pain often serves as an "alarm" signaling the need for assistance;
Encouraging the development of greater body awareness and self-management strategies.
In this way, Petropolis Chiropractic & Therapeutic Care aims to serve as a key player within each patient’s healthcare plan, conducting the "detective work" that helps uncover the "what," "why," and "how" of their concerns. Our goal is to assist patients in unlocking a pathway to improved wellness and vitality, easing or managing their complaints, and empowering them to thrive.
The core mission at Petropolis Chiropractic & Therapeutic Care is to help individuals decrease pain, restore function, and unlock movement potential, ultimately guiding them toward lasting wellness and vitality for a better quality of life, function and performance.
