How Does Chiropractic Care Help?

A chiropractic adjustment helps by releasing air from the spinal joint and allowing that joint to resume its normal position.

I Didn't Hear A Sound. Does That Mean The Adjustment Didn't Work?

No, not hearing a sound or 'audible' does NOT mean that the adjustment didn't reposition the joint or won't receive the natural endorphin rush.

Does Insurance Cover Chiropractic Visits?

All insurances are different. You can verify chiropractic coverage by calling your insurance agent, or we can help you follow up with them.

How Safe Is Chiropractic?

Very safe. There was a study done in 2010 that E. Ernst published regarding the deaths after chiropractic adjustments. Chiropractic remains one of the safest, non-invasive treatment options available.

Is Chiropractic Care Safe While I'm Pregnant?

Absolutely. Chiropractic is very important during pregnancy.

Can I Become Addicted To Chiropractic Adjustments?

There is no physiological evidence of addiction.

Is Chiropractic Safe For Children?

Yes. We had both our children adjusted within a month of them being born.

How Much Schooling Does A Chiropractor Have?

A 4-year college degree and a 4-year doctorate.

Can I See A Chiropractor If I've Had Back Surgery?

Yes. As soon as you have been cleared by your surgeon.

How Long Will It Take To Work?

Every person is different. It could be instantaneous, but if we don’t see results in 6 visits then we may have to consider an alternative plan.
