The answer is there’s always risks with any type of procedure that involves the body. That is why it is important to do the proper testing such as diagnostic testing, which would include but not limited to x-rays MRIs ultrasounds that can aid the chiropractor in procuring the proper diagnosis and treatment they should be discussed with the patient prior to starting any treatment. This is why we have informed consent in which the patient understands the risks that may be involved with this procedure.

The answer is I have over 26 years of experience in many different areas of Chiropractic that supersede the average Chiropractor I am proficient in flexion distraction technique in which this is a special disc technique where I have special tools, a decompression table as well as a specific flexion distraction table I also supervise PT in aquatic therapy where we stretch and strengthen muscles that surround your spine as well as your appendicular skeleton, which are your extremities. I also specialize in upper cervical specific technique where I may just adjust the very top bone, which is called the Atlas, which is the most neurologically based bone in your spine, which helps a lot with headache and sinus issues. I also excel in neuropathy treatment and have specific tools like a class for Laser as well as specific types of stimulation such as 7.83 Hz in which is specific to treat the nerve on its own. I go above and beyond what the average Chiropractor does we only see patients in which we have diagnostic studies such as an x-ray or an MRI otherwise The patient would be at a severe disadvantage by not knowing what’s going on in their body before we actually would perform a procedure. I also take care of children right from birth all the way up to my oldest patient which is 90 years old.

How long does a chiropractic adjustment last it can last anywhere from a few minutes to several months it really depends upon the situation that caused the misalignment and or if there was a trauma involved and how we have to retrain your body to hold the adjustment.

I have a bachelor of science as well as an associate in arts and an additional four years in chiropractic school in which I’ve earned my degrees. I also have additional time spent doing PT as well as specifically aquatic therapy in which I have been trained.

Can pregnant women see a chiropractor the answer is yes I have seen many chiropractic pregnant women as well as their infants right after they’re born. It’s a very safe procedure that has been proven and has science back studies nationwide.
