General

A natural form of medicine in which a doctor of chiropractic manually or with an instrument lines up the spine to remove nerve interference, allowing the central nervous system to function at its best.
Chiropractors have Doctorate of Chiropractic degrees. They go to school for 8 years – the same as a typical medical doctor. But instead of spending time learning about pharmacy, drugs, and surgery, chiropractic students spend that time learning more about anatomy, physiology, and adjusting techniques, becoming specialists of the spine!
An adjustment is what the doctor does to align the spine. Using his hands or an instrument, the doctor checks each vertebra for movement. He then adds motion to the joint to relieve pressure and remove nerve interference. After your first adjustment, it’s normal to feel a little sore, but not hurt. Most of our patients feel relief after their adjustments.
No. Our doctors have many different techniques and ways of adjusting, including a computerized system called the ProAdjuster. Just ask about alternative adjustment methods and share your concerns during your consultation or exam.
As each patient is different, each adjustment is different, too. The goal is the same – align the spine and remove nerve interference to help the body heal, decrease pain, and increase movement. But the method is specific for each patient.
That’s called self-adjusting, and it’s not a good idea. What you’re doing is over-adjusting the healthy joints, which will make them wear out faster. You feel the need for an adjustment because you have joints that are stuck. You can’t do these yourself! You need a doctor to relieve the pressure off those joints for you.
We do not. The chiropractic process removes nerve interference so the body can heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. Call us today to set up your complimentary consultation with the doctor!
This is different for each patient. The doctor will make recommendations based on your complaints and treatment goals. Patients usually come frequently in the beginning of their treatment plans so that we can retrain the spine to stay in its proper position, and the frequency of visits decreases over time. The goal is to get you to wellness care, which is one adjustment every four weeks to keep your spine healthy and its alignment maintained.
The short answer is no. But consider this. The more you use something, and the longer you have it, the more you need to do to take care of it, right? You only get one body, and you need to take care of it! Will you keep getting your oil changed as long as you keep driving your car? Will you keep brushing your teeth so they don’t fall out? Just like you keep brushing your teeth and going to the dentist to keep your teeth healthy, you need to get regular adjustments to keep your spine healthy! The difference, though, is that if your teeth fall out, you can get a new set of those. Your back doesn’t work like that.
