Frequently asked Questions

What does a chiropractor do?
Chiropractic treatment is based on the concept that restricted movement in the spine may lead to
pain and reduced function. Spinal adjustment (manipulation) is one form of therapy chiropractors
use to treat restricted spinal mobility. The goal is to restore spinal movement and, as a result,
improve function and decrease back pain.
During an adjustment, chiropractors use their hands to apply a controlled, sudden force to a joint
— pushing it beyond its normal range of motion. The joint's movement may be accompanied by a
popping or cracking sound.
Our chiropractors also use soft tissue massage and stretching to relax muscles that are shortened
or in spasm. We use additional treatments as well, such as structural remodeling, physical
rehabilitation and exercises.

For many people, low back pain follows a fairly predictable course. Nagging back pain lasts a few
weeks — maybe letting up temporarily or maybe gets worse over time.
What the research says
Clinical trials indicate that chiropractic care is as safe and can be more effective than conventional
treatments — which may include pain medication, rest or exercise. But that may not be saying
much. Low back pain typically improves within a matter of weeks, even for people who seek no
treatment at all.
Low back pain is often caused by injuries or strains, and there's no magic cure. It simply takes time
for your back to heal. But treatment of some type — either chiropractic or conventional — might
make you more comfortable as you wait for this healing to occur.
Can chiropractic help headaches? Yes, chiropractic is very effective for treating many types of
headaches. Our female physician, Dr. Tereshel Johnson suffered headaches for years. Getting
