Once I go to a chiropractor, will I always have to go?

Everyone responds differently to chiropractic care, but the doctors will make recommendations for correcting your problem. Then it is up to you to decide how much chiropractic care you wish to benefit from.

Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?

The doctor uses a handheld tool called an ArthroStim® that gently and precisely taps the bone back into alignment. The tool itself adjusts your body at a very specific rate, which is 12 hertz—a rate that is under the pain threshold and at the healing rate. It is very gentle, yet still powerful. The key is that the doctor asks your body to go in the right position, versus just telling it with a forceful thrust.

Can chiropractic cure everything?

As chiropractors, we cure nothing. We work on the nervous system, which controls every organ, cell and system in the body.

Why would I have my newborn or young child adjusted?

The first spinal misalignment often occurs during the birthing process. We adapt the adjusting procedures to a child's spine. Children seem to get the same improvement in overall health as adults, but often faster. The number one reason children see the chiropractor is for ear infections, but it also works great for other problems like asthma, allergies, ADHD, autism, behavioral issues and general wellness care. All of our doctors specialize in pediatrics and pregnancy.

Can chiropractic help with colic and how?

Though chiropractic isn't a treatment for colic, it can help restore proper nervous system function. With the way we care for babies, it's a little different, because we find a lot more belly upsets and diaphragm disturbances due to the crying, so the adjustment is very different too. At Van Every Family Chiropractic Center, we get to the root of why a baby is so upset, determining what's wrong and then fixing the issue. To do that, we do a lot of cranial-sacral work, specifically looking at the rotation of the sacrum. Those two areas are the key. We usually see an immediate resolution with babies and colic. The crying is almost always gone after the first adjustment.

Can someone who has had back surgery see a chiropractor?

Yes, the technique we use is so gentle with no cracking or popping, and is safe even if you have had back surgery.

Does insurance cover chiropractic visits?

person with their hands on their heart Chiropractic care is not a treatment for depression, and it should not replace care from a mental-health professional, primary-care doctor, medication plan, therapy, or crisis support. If you are experiencing depression, new or worsening symptoms, or thoughts of self-harm, please seek medical, mental-health, or emergency support right away.

Many people carrying stress also notice muscle tension, headaches, jaw tension, disrupted sleep, posture strain, or a hard time relaxing. At Van Every Family Chiropractic Center, our role is supportive: gentle chiropractic care may support comfort, posture, movement, relaxation, and stress-related body tension alongside appropriate mental-health and medical care.

Support for Body Tension and Daily Comfort

Our doctors will listen to your goals, explain what we find, and focus care on comfort, mobility, posture, rest, and overall function. We encourage collaborative care whenever symptoms are medical, emotional, severe, or persistent.

Chiropractic care may support comfort, posture, movement, relaxation, and stress-related body tension as part of a broader wellness plan.

Essential Oils and Supplements

If someone is dealing with grief or having a hard time around a specific emotional issue, then we will introduce essential oils to the adjustment process. We can test a person to see what oil they need and apply it to certain parts of the body and adjust them with the oil. Certain oils help tremendously with the emotional components of grief in particular.

We can also discuss general wellness supports, while medical and mental-health questions should stay with your licensed care team.
