If you or someone you love is not at their best or just wants to stay healthy, consider adding Chiropractic care as a part of their life plan.

When should I see a Chiropractor?

Many people will see a Chiropractor if they are suffering from headaches, back or neck pain or pain in their shoulders, hips knees or other extremities. But many of our patients will come in just to stay healthy. A form of health maintenance for them and their entire family.

What can I expect on my first Chiropractic visit?

While Chiropractic practices may vary, typically, you can expect to:

• complete patient paperwork
• discuss discomfort and medical history with the doctor
• x-rays of affected area(s)
• discuss your treatment plan

What is a spinal adjustment?

The Chiropractor will first determine if there are any spinal misalignments by examination and possibly x-rays. The adjustment involves moving the spinal segment into an improved position to reduce nerve interference and restore normal motion. This is done by hand or with the use of an adjusting instrument.
