Your chiropractor works together with your physiotherapist to ensure you are receiving the proper care. As a result, many of our patients notice improved healing and recovery times, as well as an increase in energy and improved immune response.
Is Chiropractic Treatment Painful?
Most patients report little to no pain with chiropractic treatments. There can be some initial minor discomfort during manual manipulation therapies. However, afterwards, patients normally report a reduction in pain and discomfort, as well as feeling relaxed.
Before beginning chiropractic treatment it is important to make your chiropractor fully aware of any conditions, concerns, or other issues you are currently experiencing. You should also provide a full disclosure of any medications, both prescription and over-the-counter you are current taking. Providing this information will allow your chiropractor to prescribe and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
