FAQs
-
A chiropractic adjustment (also called spinal manipulation) is a controlled, manual force applied to a joint, most commonly the spine, to improve motion, reduce pain, and restore function.
Research shows that adjustments help normalize joint mechanics, reduce muscle tension, and influence the nervous system by affecting pain pathways and proprioception. A 2018 systematic review in JAMA Network Open found spinal manipulation to be effective in reducing acute low back pain and improving function. -
Yes, chiropractic care is considered safe when performed by a licensed professional.
Common side effects are mild and temporary, such as soreness or fatigue. Serious adverse events are extremely rare. According to a review published in Spine (2007), the incidence of serious complications is very low, less than 1 per million cervical manipulations. -
Yes, chiropractic care can be effective in managing various types of headaches, such as tension-type headaches and cervicogenic headaches (headaches that originate from neck dysfunction).
A 2011 study in the journal Cephalalgia showed that spinal manipulation provided significant improvement in headache frequency and intensity for patients with cervicogenic headaches. Chiropractic adjustments can reduce joint irritation, muscle tension, and nerve pressure that contribute to headache symptoms. -
Yes, while chiropractors are best known for treating back and neck pain, evidence supports their role in managing a range of musculoskeletal conditions. Such as joint pain, sciatica, TMJ dysfunction, and even postural issues.
A 2019 review in The Spine Journal highlighted chiropractic’s effectiveness for many non-surgical spine and joint complaints. Additionally, chiropractors often provide exercise therapy, ergonomic advice, and lifestyle support to enhance overall physical function. -
No, care plans are individualized based on your condition, goals, and response to treatment. While some patients choose frequent maintenance care to help prevent flare-ups or manage chronic issues, most people see improvement in a matter of weeks.
A 2020 study in BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders found that for patients with chronic low back pain, ongoing maintenance care after initial improvement helped reduce symptom recurrence compared to patients who stopped care.
