Author: Dr. Jasmine Craner

Dr. Jasmine Craner, Doctor of Chiropractic, Member of Functional Neurology Institute, Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach, Webster Certified Pregnancy Chiropractor, Functional Movement Taping certification. Graduate of The Ohio State University and Northwestern Health Sciences University Chiropractic care started as a personal need for me when I was playing sports in high school. Track, dance, and volleyball, I was very active and pushed through a lot of pain. At some point, I could hardly walk or bend over and my doctor said I would have to stop running. Telling that to a 3 sport athlete was a big eye-opener and that's when I had my first chiropractic visit from a coach recommendation. This was an absolute blessing for me. My pain went away and my chiropractor explain WHY it was happening and how to prevent the same pain from returning. Not only did my chiropractor relieve my pain and get me back to full function, he took the time to explain what was happening and why. He also gave me stretches and exercises that would help me continue living my active lifestyle.

Stage 2: Activate Healing

Pain is generally the last symptom to show up and the first to go away. This means that by the time you realize there is a problem, there has been a problem for a long time. Especially for chronic or recurring issues, understanding how you got to where you are is so important for getting to where you want to go. In this stage of your journey, you will resolve underlying dysfunction, remove cheats, and retrain habits.

Stage 1: Discover Root Cause

You are your own person, with your own collection of life events which brought you to where you are today. You deserve to be heard, seen, and treated as the individual you are. Your journey begins with your Discovery Evaluation. This first visit includes your exam which works to uncover the root of your issue(s), new patient diagnostics, and, of course, your first treatment. This is how we will help you begin connecting the dots and feeling better. After your first treatment, we will ask you to observe your body’s responses– good, bad, or indifferent. There is no wrong answer as this is just starting point information and direction for moving forward. In your second visit, we will review this feedback and your diagnostics to further identify potential underlying causes and compensations. We will combine everything we have learned about you, consider your goals, and together create a plan to resolve your concerns from the roots up.
