Chiropractic is a non-invasive, all natural approach to healing. Because chiropractic is non-invasive, you will not have the side effects that you might have with medications. You also will not have the risks associated with surgery.
One of the most encouraging trends to date is the recognition
that chiropractic care and alternative medicine is receiving overall in the healthcare
industry.
In a recent study conducted by the International Society of
Certified Employee Benefit Specialists, they determined the following:
45% of respondents used some form of alternative care in the last year
20% of those who haven't used alternative care expect to or would consider doing so in the future
There are two broad degrees of disease: acute and chronic. Doctors of chiropractic treat them both. Some acute problems are emergency, life-threatening situations, requiring immediate intervention with powerful drugs or surgery. It is in this area of acute problems that the medical doctor's skills are most helpful. But less serious problems as well as the majority of chronic problems constitute the great bulk of the pains, complaints and miseries of the human race and in general, respond well to chiropractic care.
The sensible approach to any disease condition is to utilize the
most conservative intervention, which will reverse the disease momentum.
While chiropractors do not perform surgery, they do recognize the
need and value of many surgical procedures, and often refer patients for surgery. If your
condition is determined to not be a chiropractic problem, we will assist you in the
referral process to a provider that can assist in extended services and diagnostic
procedures. This is done within your first few visits and is
predicated on your response to care.
Should your condition be of a more serious nature, our office can
refer you for an MRI, and coordinate that referral with your insurance company.
There are two types of treatable injuries; congenital and
acquired. Congenital conditions are present at birth. That does not mean that you will not
respond to treatment. Patience may be required though. Very often we see conditions that
have existed for numerous years, and the patient expects to have the problem fixed in
short order. While we always strive to accommodate our patients, some injuries and
conditions require special treatment protocols. Acquired conditions would include falls,
work injuries or automobile injuries, to name just a few. Our offices routinely deal with
these issues. Call us or

You have nothing to lose and better health to gain!
