What if I feel nervous about seeing a chiropractor?
When you come in as a patient, please bring up any concerns you have. Lilies will address any issues to remove the uncertainty. If you’re the type of person who likes to be fully informed, she will go through each step before starting your adjustment. Others like to simply go ahead, and then are pleasantly surprised at what an easy experience they have!
If there is a slight amount of discomfort, it’s only when areas that are particularly tender are being adjusted. It will last just for a moment, because the adjustment is quick.
You know how you can crack the joints in your hands? What happens in your spine is similar. A joint is being released, and there are small bubbles in the joint that create that sound. It’s not a cause for concern or an indicator of effectiveness.
There are different reasons that people go to a chiropractor. IF you just want relief, you can discontinue treatment when your symptoms are gone. There is never an obligation to carry on if you wish to stop. Some find it beneficial to have maintenance adjustments, much like they go to a dentist for a checkup. Because of today’s lifestyle, our bodies are under serious stress. That stiffness and tension may be relieved with periodic visits.
