Frequently Asked Questions

Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, hands-on health care discipline that focuses on the neuro-musculoskeletal system. Chiropractors practice a manual approach, providing diagnosis, treatment and preventive care for disorders related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system and joints. Chiropractic care may also be used to provide symptomatic relief for patients with chronic conditions.

Chiropractic is widely recognized as one of the safest, drug-free, non-invasive therapies available for the treatment of headache, and neck and back pain. It has an excellent safety record. However, no health treatment is completely free of potential adverse effects. Your chiropractor will always perform a thorough assessment including a detailed history, physical examination, and will speak to you about any risks to treatment.

In your initial visit, we will review your medical history, identify your problem areas, conduct a complete examination, develop a plan for treatment that works best for you, and start your first chiropractic adjustment. Most patients experience immediate relief following chiropractic treatment.
