You have probably heard a lot of different things about chiropractic care. Often, from individuals who are unfamiliar or uneducated with the chiropractic care. Our doctors like to set the record straight!
- Spinal Adjustment Are Painful
Many patients find relief immediately after their first initial spinal adjustment. Others find relief after several adjustments and exercises. When a spine is ‘misaligned’, it causes pain in the neck, back and other parts of the body. Once the spine is aligned properly, the pain can subside.
- Chiropractors Are Not ‘Real’ Doctors
Chiropractors undergo a rigorous course of education. Undergraduate studies are required, followed by several more years of specified training. After completing their education, chiropractors must also complete clinical hours under the eye of a licensed chiropractor. Similar to medical doctors, chiropractors are tested and must register with the state board to become licensed. All Chiropractic Colleges/Universities have been accredited by the U.S. Department of Education.
- Chiropractic Is Costly
Saving people time and money, chiropractic care is less expensive than traditional western medicine. Most patients spend less time in treatment than they would with traditional options, and it’s much easier to obtain care when you need it. In most cases, we can offer same day appointments, getting you back on track as soon as possible.
- You Don’t Need To Visit A Chiropractor, You Can Adjust Yourself
The advent of social media has encouraged an increasing number of people to DIY their chiropractic care. Is it possible? Kind of. Should you? Probably not. Our bodies use our breath and everyday movement to stay clear and active. Occasionally, these actions create the same pops and cracks that are intentionally delivered by a chiropractor. Chiropractic methods consist of safety and overall alignment techniques that simply aren’t available to the ‘lay adjuster’. Remove the fear from your pain, breathe easily, hydrate and trust one of our Chiropractors to make adjustments for your optimal health.
