There’s no window into the body…

…so how do chiropractors know where to adjust?

To a layperson, the human body seems like a mystery. All of your joints, muscles, ligaments, and organs are hidden under your skin. How could anybody possibly know what’s going on in there?

And yet, if you’ve ever been to a doctor, you already know that medical experts can diagnose and treat all sorts of conditions—including chiropractors.

But how do chiropractors know where to adjust?

Whether it’s your first trip or tenth, you’re probably still learning something new with each visit.

In this article, we’ll give you the rundown of what to expect at the chiropractor.

It’s normal to be curious or even to feel apprehension walking into your chiropractor appointment, especially if this is your first time. But the worst thing that could happen is to let your anxiety keep you from pursuing treatment.

The first thing you should know is that chiropractic care is “hands-on and drugs off.” This means we prefer to take a more natural approach and allow your body to heal itself. However, if you are also seeing another practitioner, chiropractic care can work in conjunction so that you reap the benefits of both treatment protocols.

In this article, we’ll let you know what to expect at the chiropractor so that you can get the most out of your experience. And for those who have been to the chiropractor before, we’ll give you an idea of what your first visit to Oviedo Chiropractic will be like.

The best supplement for joint pain for you may depend on your individual needs, but there are four primary supplements to consider: vitamin D, collagen, omega-3s, and glucosamine chondroitin.

Do you know when to stop chiropractic treatment?

It seems like everyone is singing the praises of regular chiropractic adjustments. Unfortunately, there are still a few unhelpful myths floating around that prevent people from seeking care. And one of the biggest ones is that once you start going to the chiropractor, you can never stop.

This is simply not true!

As a professional licensed chiropractor and former educator, I consider it my duty to correct myths and misinformation. In this article, I’m going to discuss when to stop chiropractic treatment and alleviate any concerns you may have.
