Dr. Kim Asks some important questions of interest to Portland residents - Chiropractor Portland Dr. Kim Asks...

What is the purpose of pain?
Pain prompts many Portland folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
How do most people deal with subluxations?
First, they try to ignore them. When they don't, they go to the medicine cabinet to stop their brain from feeling the symptom. Later, back surgery may be threatened. Sadly, it's not until this later stage that they consult our Portland chiropractic office. Yet, even with the delay, most are delighted by the results produced by today's chiropractic care.
