Frequently Asked Questions at Casses Chiropractic Clinic, PC
In order to help our patients best understand what we can do for you, we’ve compiled a list of the questions we hear most often. Have something you’re wondering about but aren’t seeing below? We’d love to chat-simply give us a call.
Once I go to a chiropractor, will I always have to go?
No, visiting a chiropractor does not mean you are committed to a lifetime of care. Many patients seek chiropractic treatment to resolve a specific condition or injury. However, some individuals choose to continue with maintenance care to keep their spine aligned and promote overall wellness. It’s entirely up to you and your personal health goals.
Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?
Chiropractic adjustments are generally not painful. However, it is common to experience some soreness in the muscles surrounding the areas being worked on during and after the adjustment. This discomfort is temporary and typically resolves within a short period. Our team does our best to ensure you remain comfortable and pain-free in our care-we want you to leave feeling better than when you found us!
Can chiropractic cure everything?
Chiropractic does not claim to be a cure for any specific condition. Rather, it focuses on improving the function of the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. By restoring proper alignment and reducing nerve interference, chiropractic care aims to support the body’s natural healing process. It can complement other healthcare approaches and help alleviate symptoms associated with various conditions.
Why would I have my newborn or young child adjusted?
Chiropractic care for newborns and young children can promote healthy development and address common issues such as misalignments from birth trauma, colic, reflux, and breastfeeding difficulties. By gently adjusting the infant’s spine, chiropractors aim to optimize nervous system function and support overall well-being.
Can chiropractic help with colic and how?
Yes, chiropractic care has shown promise in helping infants with colic. Misalignments in the spine can disrupt the normal function of the digestive system, leading to symptoms like colic. Chiropractic adjustments for infants are gentle and safe, aiming to restore spinal alignment and remove nerve interference. This can help alleviate symptoms and improve the baby’s comfort.
Does insurance cover chiropractic visits?
We accept a variety of insurance plans at our practice. To determine if your specific plan covers chiropractic care, we encourage you to give us a call. Our team will gladly verify your coverage and help you understand any copays or associated costs in advance. Our goal is to ensure transparency and prevent any surprises.
Do I need a referral from my physician?
No, you do not need a referral from your physician to receive chiropractic care. We welcome individuals to our practice without the need for a referral. Our experienced chiropractors will conduct a comprehensive assessment to evaluate your condition and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
Do you work with medical doctors?
Yes, we collaborate with medical doctors in the area to provide comprehensive care for our patients. We believe in a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare and maintain open lines of communication with medical professionals. This allows us to share pertinent information and ensure continuity of care for your specific condition.
Will I get adjusted on my first visit?
In most cases, if deemed appropriate and safe after a thorough history, examination, and any necessary imaging such as X-rays, you can expect to receive an adjustment on your first visit. Our team will discuss their findings with you and determine the best course of action for your specific needs.
Will you suggest exercises or other things I can do?
Yes, as part of your personalized treatment plan, our chiropractors may recommend exercises, stretches, ergonomic modifications, or lifestyle adjustments to complement your in-office care. These additional measures can help support your progress, improve strength and flexibility, and promote long-term wellness.
Can someone who has had back surgery see a chiropractor?
Absolutely. Chiropractic care can be beneficial for individuals who have had back surgery. Depending on your specific situation, our chiropractors may utilize adjustments, laser therapy, or spinal decompression to address inflammation, scar tissue, or residual pain. We will work closely with you and your medical history to ensure the most appropriate and safe treatment options are provided.
