If you get in early enough, we can help with the correction. Some have bone changes like a wedged vertebral body that will not correct. Frequently muscle tension is a cause. READ MORE
Why does a chiropractor crack your back?
The "Crack" is a sound caused by the cavitation of the synovial fluid in the joint being adjusted; same thing as when you "crack" you knuckle. You do not need the sound for an adjustment to take place, and if a region does "crack" it won't again for about 15 minutes. So the sound is an outcome of the adjustment to your subluxated (misaligned) segment. READ MORE

What are the two main types of chiropractors?
We are all Doctors of Chiropractic, but how we approach things are more like how a Chef makes a soup; some build it by hand, taking care with only excellent organic ingredients. Some open a can and heat it up in a microwave. READ MORE
What happens if sciatica is left untreated?
In many cases the pain causes you to misalign even more, causing more problems. The pain in that nerve may decrease over time, or may worsen to a debilitating level, depends on the person and circumstances. READ MORE
Are chiropractic neck adjustments effective?

Can a chiropractor relax your spine?
The adjustment can help relax the muscles that attach to the spine, but not the bones. READ MORE

It depends on the source of the vertigo, but Chiropractic may help. I have been able to help many people over the years, but if it is of viral origin or a tumor, then no. READ MORE
What happens when you get adjusted by a chiropractor?
You get healthier. It usually takes more than a single adjustment as you have to re educate the muscles which act on the bones. READ MORE
