Plan for about 45 minutes.
Because most clenching and grinding happens while you are asleep, so the muscles are loaded for hours with no break. Sleeping position adds to it, particularly on your side with the jaw pressed into the pillow. Stress plays a part too. Treatment works on the muscles themselves, on sleeping position, and on the daytime habits that feed the night time load.
You get an estimate at the end of the first assessment rather than an open ended plan. A jaw that has been painful for years usually takes longer than a recent flare. There is a review point built in, and your physiotherapist will tell you if it is not responding rather than booking you in indefinitely.
Work is fine. Most people go straight back to their day. Training is worth easing off. Light movement is fine, but a hard session straight afterwards tends to undo what the treatment was for, and some people feel tired or a little light headed for an hour or two.
No. You can book acupuncture directly with us. Some extended health plans ask for a physician referral before they will reimburse you, so it is worth reading your plan wording before your first visit.
You can resume normal activities immediately after treatment. Mild soreness for 24-48 hours is normal as your body adjusts. Drink plenty of water, avoid strenuous exercise for the rest of the day, and apply ice if needed. Avoid heavy lifting for 24 hours after your adjustment.
No referral is needed to book a chiropractor at BLVD Wellness. Chiropractors in BC are primary care providers, so you can book directly. Some extended health insurance plans may require a referral for coverage, but ICBC claims do not require one.
Yes, you can combine chiropractic care with massage therapy or other services.
