Frequently Asked Questions
Chiropractic care is a holistic, non-invasive approach to health that focuses on the body’s ability to heal itself naturally. Chiropractors treat acute, chronic, and preventative health issues by addressing spinal and musculoskeletal alignment. Whether you’re dealing with pain, recovering from an injury, or simply maintaining your overall wellness, chiropractic care can benefit everyone.
During your initial visit, Dr. D will conduct a comprehensive history and physical exam. Based on the findings, additional diagnostic tests like X-rays, MRIs, or lab work may be recommended. Once a diagnosis is made, Dr. D will provide a personalized treatment plan if chiropractic care is suitable. If not, a referral to the appropriate specialist will be made. Follow-up visits focus on implementing the treatment plan, which may include chiropractic adjustments, Graston technique, Class IV laser therapy, or neuromuscular reeducation.
The number and frequency of visits depend on your specific condition and treatment goals. Acute issues may require fewer visits, while chronic conditions or preventative care plans may need more consistent attention.
X-rays, MRIs, or lab tests will only be recommended if necessary to make an accurate diagnosis and guide your treatment plan.
