Dr. Ehn Asks some important questions of interest to Newport residents - Chiropractor Newport Dr. Ehn Asks...

What's the difference between sick care and health care?
Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
Why are frequent visits advised when starting chiropractic care?
Consistent visits at the beginning of your chiropractic care help create the momentum necessary to correct and retrain unhealthy spinal patterns. Later, Newport patients find that continued care on a less frequent visit schedule can help preserve their progress and avoid a relapse.
