FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS IN Bettendorf IA

Chiropractic care uses thorough analysis of the spine and related structures to make small corrections with the goal of improving function and decreasing pain.

After finding areas to correct in the spine, the chiropractor makes the correction to that area by using one of many different techniques. In our office we offer everything from low-force and more gentle techniques like Activator or S.O.T. to more hands on techniques like Gonstead or Thompson drop table techniques. Your chiropractor will consult with you on what might work best for you and this may vary from visit to visit.

We firmly believe that chiropractors are extremely safe and that is what you can expect from our office. Your chiropractor uses their understanding of the anatomy of the body and any medical history that you might have to make an educated decision on what would be best for you. If your chiropractor finds that what they offer may not be best for your condition or that your condition is better suited to being examined by another type of professional, a referral is then made. Fortunately, this is a rather infrequent occurrence.

Happiness, better range of motion, and “feel like dancing” are all common side effects of chiropractic care. We are kidding (kind of). We remind patients that when we correct something in their body that has been there a long time, it might be met with some resistance. This in turn might lead to them being mildly sore the next day. This happens less than 50% of the time with our new patients and depends on their condition prior to entering the office.

Our providers are known in this community for giving a level of individualized care and attention that is simply unmatched. You will often hear one of them say, “the most important patient is the one in the room.” They believe that you deserve care that is specific to you on that particular day. No two patients are the same and no two visits are the same.

Chiropractors treat many of the musculoskeletal issues that arise somewhere between the “nose and the toes.” Pulled muscle? We do that. Fibromyalgia? We do that too. Tendonitis from playing too much pickleball? Yup, we can manage that as well. We work on everything from jaw pain, headaches, back pain, foot problems, numbness and tingling, shoulder pain, etc. If you are unsure if we can take care of your problem, please feel free to call and talk to one of our providers.
