Yes! Chiropractic care is very safe. We use the latest and most effective techniques that help you get better faster. Your chiropractor has gone through over 8 years of training to understand and treat ailments of the spine, nervous system, ligaments, and muscles. Chiropractic is the safest treatment for back pain and does not have the negative side effects of taking pain medication for long periods of time. We recommend chiropractic first when managing back pain because it is the most conservative and non-invasive care you can receive.

Chiropractic care is good for a variety of different muscle, joint, and nervous system problems. For example, when your back feels stiff it is likely that your muscles and ligaments are tense and adding a large amount of pressure onto your spine and other joints. Over time this pressure causes back pain and arthritis. During your visit our Chiropractic team take the time to work on your muscles, ligaments, and joints to release the pressure and decompress the spine. Back pain and stiffness can often lead to disc herniations and other nerve problems over time. When your spine suffers chronic pain and stiffness it tends to decrease in height and irritate the nerves that travel through your back. We have heard from many of our patients how Chiropractic care has resolved issues that seemed unrelated.

The only way to know if you are a candidate for chiropractic treatment is by consulting with a chiropractor for a complete clinical assessment. If you are not a candidate for chiropractic care, or if you require medical treatment beyond the scope of chiropractic, you will be referred to the appropriate specialist or practitioner. We are a family chiropractic clinic so we are experienced with patients of all ages.

Like any doctor visit, you will be asked about your medical history and reason for visiting the chiropractor. The purpose of the adjustment is to manipulate the spine, neck and other areas of the musculoskeletal frame into an optimal position. You may hear a lot of loud popping and cracking during your visit or you may not, the sound has no relevance to the effectiveness of your treatment because everyone is built differently, but you will experience greater mobility and less pain immediately or some time after.
