Our expert chiropractors are committed to helping you achieve optimal health through personalized care and advanced techniques.
What is a chiropractic adjustment?
A chiropractic adjustment is a therapeutic procedure performed by a licensed chiropractor. It involves applying controlled, sudden force to a spinal joint to improve alignment, relieve pain, and enhance the body’s natural healing process.
What conditions can chiropractic adjustments treat?
Chiropractic adjustments are effective for a variety of conditions, including:
- Neck pain: Alleviating stiffness and improving mobility.
- Back pain: Targeting misalignments to reduce discomfort.
- Headaches: Relieving tension headaches and migraines caused by spinal issues.
- Joint pain: Easing discomfort in shoulders, hips, and knees.
- Sciatica: Reducing nerve compression and associated symptoms.
- Sports injuries: Enhancing recovery and performance.
Are chiropractic adjustments safe?
Yes, chiropractic adjustments are safe when performed by a licensed professional. Chiropractors are trained to assess and treat musculoskeletal conditions while minimizing risks. Patients with specific medical conditions should consult their healthcare provider before starting treatment.
How often should I get a chiropractic adjustment?
The frequency of adjustments depends on your condition, health goals, and chiropractor’s recommendations. Some patients benefit from weekly sessions, while others may require monthly maintenance adjustments.
What happens during a chiropractic adjustment?
During an adjustment, your chiropractor will:
- Assess your spine and posture.
- Identify misaligned joints or areas of tension.
- Use hands or specialized instruments to apply a precise, quick force to realign the joint.
Patients often feel immediate relief and improved mobility after an adjustment.
Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?
Most patients do not experience pain during an adjustment. Some may feel mild discomfort or pressure, which typically resolves quickly. Many patients describe a feeling of relief and relaxation following the procedure.
Can chiropractic adjustments help with posture?
Yes, chiropractic adjustments can correct misalignments that contribute to poor posture. By improving spinal alignment and muscle balance, adjustments support better posture and reduce strain on your body.
Are chiropractic adjustments covered by insurance?
Many insurance plans cover chiropractic care. Check with your provider to understand your benefits, including coverage limits and copayments. Thornally ChiroWellness also offers affordable payment plans for uninsured patients.
What are the benefits of regular chiropractic care?
Regular chiropractic care offers numerous benefits, including:
- Reduced pain and discomfort.
- Enhanced range of motion and flexibility.
- Improved nervous system function.
- Better posture and alignment.
- Support for overall wellness and preventive care.
Can children benefit from chiropractic adjustments?
Yes, chiropractic care is safe and beneficial for children. It can address issues like colic, ear infections, and poor posture. Pediatric chiropractic adjustments are gentle and tailored to a child’s needs.
How do chiropractic adjustments differ from physical therapy?
While both aim to improve mobility and reduce pain, chiropractic adjustments focus on spinal alignment and nervous system function. Physical therapy emphasizes exercises and stretches to strengthen muscles and improve movement patterns. These approaches can complement each other.
Can chiropractic care help with stress and anxiety?
Chiropractic adjustments can alleviate physical tension and improve nervous system function, which may help reduce stress and anxiety. Regular care promotes relaxation and overall well-being.
