Frequently Asked Questions
1.
Do you "take" insurance?
Your insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance provider. We may be able to provide you with some information which will be necessary to be reimbursed for the care you receive here.
2.
Can chiropractic help me with...?
A rising tide raises all boats.
Chiropractic is different. Rather than trying to "treat" a body part that is crying for help, we leave the healing to Mother Nature. That awesome power may not be able to reach the ailing part because of vertebral subluxation. By addressing the cause of dis-ease, the chiropractor helps prepare the soil. Nature regrows the garden.
3.
Is chiropractic safe for my child?
Not only is it safe, it is necessary for your child to grow properly. The birth process presents massive stresses to the upper cervical spine in the vast majority of newborns. The resultant neuroskeletal trauma, vertebral subluxation, has been linked to nearly every childhood disorder except for childhood diseases as they are part of nature's plan to develop their immune system. Early correction of subluxations allows nature to develop the brain and body without interference. Most health concerns in adults have their roots in childhood subluxations. Chiropractors receive extensive training in methods of analyzing and adjusting children. Chiropractic care is safe for children. One should ask if it is safe for children not to have chiropractic care.
4.
Is there such thing as too much chiropractic care?
No. Chiropractors have particular criteria to determine when someone requieres a chiropractic adjustment.
5.
Can I receive chiropractic care while pregnant?
It is a great idea to see a chiropractor as soon as you are considering growing your family. The ultimate product of chiropractic care is aliveness, so it is important to maximize your vitality as you will be growing another being inside you! Some women may also develop back pain while pregnant, or previous back pain can diminish. Most people live with undetected and uncorrected spinal problems. Spinal and pelvic problems can interfere with normal labor and delivery, as well as caring for a newborn. Every aspect of parenting places great demands on the body. Chiropractic is an immensely powerful way to be sure you can be at your best.
6.
Is chiropractic a new concept? What training goes into becoming a chiropractor?
Chiropractic is not a new concept at all! While manual healing dates back to ancient times, the first chiropractic adjustment was given by D.D. Palmer in1895. Chiropractic has been a recognized profession for over 100 years. To become a doctor of chiropractic, a bachelor degree, a four-year postgraduate degree, and a national or state board exam are required to be a licensed chiropractor. Doctors of chiropractic study out of the same books as medical professionals, but their approach to health is different.
