Frequently Asked Question

General

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.

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.

For almost all of our patients, we do want to see x-rays before we adjust. Children do not usually need x-rays unless there is a problem, and, of course, we do not x-ray pregnant patients. If you have a recent set of x-rays, bring them with you! Our doctor can read them at your visit. If you don’t, that’s ok, too. We have an x-ray machine in our office, and the cost is less than you might think!
