The Electric Life Healing Journey
Real healing takes time, intention, and a nervous system that finally feels safe.
At Electric Life Chiropractic, we help you move from survival mode into a state where your body can actually repair, rebuild, and thrive. Healing isn’t random — it follows a predictable pattern. And once you understand that pattern, the process becomes empowering instead of confusing.
​
This page shows you what healing really looks like, why it happens in stages, and what you can expect along your journey.
The Stages of Healing
Our approach focuses on providing care that is in alignment with the phases of healing.
Healing and creating positive change is an ongoing journey, not a single event. Our chiropractic care evolves alongside your progress, blending science, philosophy, and art to guide your transformation.
​
​Your healing unfolds in three major stages — from your nervous system outward.These stages build on each other. You can’t skip them. You can’t rush them.But when you honor the process, the results last.
The Physiological Phases of Tissue Healing
Our approach focuses on providing care that is in alignment with the phases of healing.
While your nervous system, movement, and fascia are adapting, your tissues follow their own biological timeline.
Understanding these phases helps you know what to expect.

Case Story: Jordan's Journey
From Daily Pain to Long-Term Strength
Jordan came to Electric Life with chronic low back pain, tension, and difficulty sitting through the workday. Jordans story began during high school football workouts. A deadlifting injury that did not heal nor rehabilitate properly led to long term pain and dysfunction into adulthood. So much so, Jordan was struggling to play with his kids due to the pain. After years of quick and temporary fixes, nothing was sticking.
​
Soo... Jordan was looking for a holistic pain alternative and solution to a problem that medication and traditional approaches did not yield any results.
Weeks 1–4:Jordan’s breath deepened, he was able to expand his ribcage more, and sitting did not cause sciatica. The Pain moved from the low back to the hips — a normal sign of pattern change. Sleep improved for the first time in months.
Weeks 4–10:Movement assessments showed better hip rotation and spinal stability. Pain decreased dramatically. Jordan was able to regain that sense of "normal" he had lost. He began to regain trust in his body's abilities to be safe, strong and capable of working with him, not against.
Months 3–6:Jordan reported feeling “stronger and more stable than I have in years.” Old flare-ups disappeared. Long-term patterns shifted.
Today: Jordan comes in for maintenance visits and says, “It feels like my body finally works the way it’s supposed to.”This is what long-term, nervous-system–centered care can create.
FAQ — What Patients Ask Most
A simple guide to what you may experience.
“Consistency is what turns temporary relief into permanent change.”
How long will it take to feel better?
Many people notice changes within a few sessions, but lasting healing typically develops over several weeks or months depending on stress, history, and lifestyle.
Will the pain come back?
Not if the deeper patterns change.That’s why we integrate movement and lifestyle — not just adjustments.
Do I have to come forever?
No.Healing has a clear beginning, middle, and stabilization phase.Many patients choose periodic check-ins to stay aligned and prevent regression.
What if I’ve tried chiropractic before and it didn’t help?
Most chiropractic care focuses on joints.We focus on the nervous system, which is often the missing piece.
​
How do I know what stage I’m in?
Your initial exam includes neurological testing, movement analysis, posture evaluation, and a detailed history. We map your stage before your first adjustment.
Can stages overlap?
Yes — healing is adaptive. You may be in Stage 1 neurologically while in Stage 2 mechanically. That’s normal and expected.
​
Why do flare-ups happen?
They often indicate your nervous system is reorganizing patterns. Flares do not mean “worse” — they mean “changing.”
​
What influences how fast I heal?
Stress load, sleep, movement habits, hydration, emotional patterns, and nervous system tone.
Why do some people need more time?
Every body has a different history. Long-term stress or repeated injuries can extend certain stages — but healing is still possible.
​
How do I support healing between visits?
Your movement plan, lifestyle guidance, and nervous system regulation strategies all matter. (You can internally link here to your movement page, blog, or Naptown Heals page.)
