How does chiropractic care work?
‍
‍Chiropractic care involves the manual adjustment of the spine and other joints to restore proper alignment and function. This process helps to relieve pressure on nerves, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility. At Neurohealth Wellness, our chiropractors use a combination of techniques, including spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and exercise prescription. These methods aim to correct imbalances in the body, promote natural healing, and prevent future injuries.

Is chiropractic care safe?
‍
‍Chiropractic care is widely recognized as a safe, non-invasive treatment option. At Neurohealth Wellness, our chiropractors are highly trained professionals who conduct thorough assessments before initiating any treatment. We tailor our approach to each patient's unique needs and medical history, ensuring that the care provided is both effective and safe. While some patients may experience mild soreness after an adjustment, this is typically short-lived and part of the healing process.

‍How long are consultations?

Please allow 45 minutes for your Initial Consultation. This ensures we have adequate time to go through your medical history, address your health concerns and provide treatment. For subsequent visits you should allow 15 minutes. The clinic also offers 30 minute long consultation if required by the practitioner to treat multiple regions.

‍What is the popping sound?

Some adjusting methods can produce a popping sound when the gas and fluids that exist within the joints are released. There is a common misbelief that the noise is the bones going back in place or rubbing on each other, this is incorrect treatments are gentle and should not cause any discomfort to the patient.
