Frequently Asked Questions
What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to the spine, joints, and nervous system without the use of drugs or surgery. It uses gentle, hands-on techniques to restore alignment, improve function, and relieve pain naturally.
What conditions do chiropractors treat?
Chiropractors commonly treat: back and neck pain, headaches and migraines, sciatica, joint pain (shoulders, hips, knees, etc.), muscle tension, posture issues, injuries from auto accidents, sports, or work, and can help with a variety of other conditions. We also support wellness, stress management, and preventative care for people of all ages.
Are chiropractic adjustments safe?
Yes. Chiropractic adjustments are safe and effective when performed by a licensed, trained professional. Techniques are always adapted to your age, condition, and comfort level. Most patients feel relief and improved mobility after care.
Will an adjustment hurt?
Most adjustments are gentle and painless. You might hear a “popping” sound (gas releasing from joints), but this is normal. Some patients feel sore after their first few treatments, similar to starting a new workout routine.
How many visits will I need to feel better?
A lot depends on your condition, goals, and how your body responds to care. Some patients find relief in just a few visits, while others benefit from a structured care plan over several weeks for long-term improvement and maintenance. Your chiropractor will work with you to setup a plan that is best suited for you.
Do I need a referral from my doctor?
No referral is needed. Chiropractors are primary healthcare providers, which means you can schedule an appointment directly. Feel free to call 763-330-0393 to schedule now!
Is chiropractic care covered by insurance?
Many insurance plans, workman’s compensation, and auto injury coverage, offer benefits for chiropractic care. We’ll help you verify your coverage and explain your options during your initial new patient appointment.
Can children or seniors get chiropractic care?
Absolutely. Chiropractic is safe for people of all ages. We use age-appropriate techniques for infants, children, and older adults to ensure comfort and effectiveness.
What if I’ve had back surgery or other health conditions?
We customize care based on your health history. If you’ve had surgery or other medical issues, we use modified techniques and collaborate with your other providers as needed to ensure safe, integrated care.
What can I expect on my first visit?
You’ll receive a complimentary insurance reviewal, consultation, health history review, and physical examination. If appropriate, we’ll begin treatment or schedule follow-up visits. We always take time to answer your questions and explain everything clearly.
