What is preventive care?

preventive care
In terms of your health and well-being, preventive care relates to any actions you take that promote and maintain the natural healthy state of your body.

Preventive care can be something you do every day, like-choosing to eat healthy, or more sporadic efforts like doing a cleanse or taking a fitness class.


Because we are not all experts in all things, preventive care also means incorporating the resources and skills of others who are trained in the various aspects of wellness, on every level.

How does the chiropractor fit in ?

Because a chiropractic doctor is trained in such a wide spectrum of the healing arts, he or she is an excellent choice to be a partner in your preventive care efforts.

Not only can your chiropractor assess where your body may need strengthening or re-aligning in order to function more efficiently, Dr Boyne can also guide you into a better posture to alleviate unnecessary stress on your spine.

Training programs, massage therapy, healing technologies like therapeutic ultrasound and custom orthotics are other services the Jasper Chiropractic and Body Care Clinic offers to help you keep your body in good health. We also offer nutritional counselling to help you map out an eating lifestyle that can increase your energy levels, leave you feeling lighter and help you achieve your goal.

How often should you visit?

Preventive care should be regular and routine. Like your oral health check-ups at the dentist, eye sight evaluations at the optometrist and medical evaluations with your family doctor, a set schedule that is easy to adhere to is a best practice we recommend.

For chiropractic care, scheduling 8 - 10 preventive session annually is optimal. At your preventive care session, Dr Boyne will:
  • evaluate your spinal and extremity joint alignment
  • assess joint function
  • discuss any symptoms you may be having and ask you for feedback on previous adjustments or sessions
  • adjust and/or treat as necessary
