When you’re searching for a chiropractor in Vancouver, WA, you’ll find that many offices only schedule 2–5 minutes per patient. A quick adjustment may provide short-term relief, but at Lumina Chiropractic, I believe healing takes time — both in the number of visits and the time we spend together in each one.
That’s why I dedicate 15–30 minutes to every visit and a full hour for new patient appointments. My goal is not just to adjust your spine and send you on your way. Instead, I want to understand your story, listen to your concerns, and give your body and nervous system the space it needs to heal.
1. More Than Just an Adjustment
The truth is, the adjustment itself often only takes a few minutes. What I do with the rest of our time together is just as important:
Soft tissue therapy to release tension and improve mobility
Therapeutic exercises and stretching to retrain movement patterns
Personalized advice on posture, daily habits, and lifestyle changes
A listening ear, because stress and emotions affect the nervous system just as much as physical strain
These extra steps not only help you feel better right away, but they also support more lasting and permanent healing.
2. Giving the Nervous System Time to Reset
Your body isn’t a machine that can just be “fixed” in two minutes. The nervous system needs time to process, reset, and feel safe after an adjustment.
When the nervous system is stuck in a stress (fight-or-flight) response, healing slows down. By taking extra time for soft tissue work, breathing space, and movement, I help your body shift into a calmer, more balanced state. That’s when true healing begins.
3. Patient-Centered Care
At Lumina Chiropractic, my care is centered around you. I don’t believe in a “one-size-fits-all” approach or rushing through your visit. The time I spend with each patient reflects how much I value your health, your story, and your goals.
Whether you’re coming in for prenatal chiropractic care, pediatric adjustments, or family wellness care, you deserve to feel heard, cared for, and supported.
Why This Extra Time Matters
Quicker recovery: Supporting muscles, joints, and soft tissues helps your adjustments hold longer.
Deeper healing: Allowing your nervous system to settle makes care more effective.
Better connection: Building trust and listening to your needs ensures care is tailored to you.
I believe that when you invest more time in your health, you see better results.
