  • Do I need a massage or chiropractor for back pain?

    First, you need a proper exam to determine the diagnosis so you would need to see a Doctor of Chiropractic or other qualified provider. Once that is done, the appropriate treatment for your condition can be prescribed. There are many reasons for a 37 year old female to have back pain, so being thorough will rule out any serious conditions that could be overlooked by just treating the symptom and not the cause.

  • How long should it take for a chiropractor to fix your back?

    Hello, It is a good question but not a simple answer. Each person is different based on age and the condition you have. Typically to get out of pain it may take 4-12 visits within 2 to 6 weeks. If someone has a more complicated condition such as a herniated disc or severe scoliosis the treatment may take months or longer. The main thing is to get an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan that has specific goals where you can measure progress. If a chiropractor is doing the same thing over and over without re-exams or a program to show correction, you may want to question their motives. I believe honesty, clear communication, and good ethics is very important. READ MORE
