What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic focuses on restoring nervous-system function by correcting spinal misalignments (subluxations).
Because your nervous system controls every body system—muscles, digestion, breathing, even immunity—regular adjustments help you heal and function at your best.
What is a subluxation?
A subluxation is a slight shift in your vertebrae that irritates nerves exiting your spine.
This can limit movement and disrupt how the nervous system communicates with the body, impacting overall function.
Correcting subluxations helps restore balance and support optimal health.
What conditions do chiropractors treat?
While chiropractic is not a treatment for specific conditions, many people see improvements in issues such as back pain, headaches, colic, nursing difficulties, sleep disturbances, digestive problems, and more after nervous system-centered care.
Chiropractic care focuses on your body’s ability to adapt and works to support your natural physiology and ability to heal.
What happens on my first visit?
Your first appointment begins with a warm, one-on-one consultation to review your health history, concerns, and goals.
Next, we perform a comprehensive evaluation—including spinal alignment checks, range-of-motion tests, and a neurological assessment—with on-site digital X-rays if clinically required.
At the end of this visit, you’ll receive a clear report of findings and we’ll schedule your first hands-on adjustment for your second appointment.
Will the chiropractic adjustments hurt?
Most people find adjustments comfortable and relieving. Dr. Megan uses gentle techniques to release tension in the nervous system.
Mild soreness can occur as toxins are released from the spine and tissues. However, staying hydrated after adjustments helps flush these toxins out quickly.
How long until I see results?
Everyone responds differently to chiropractic care. Some feel relief after the first adjustment, while others take several visits.
Healing is a process that takes time, consistency, and patience.
Dr. Megan tailors care to each patient, ensuring the best possible outcomes for their condition and goals.
Is chiropractic care safe during pregnancy?
Yes! Chiropractic is safe and effective during pregnancy. Dr. Megan is Webster certified and has advanced training in prenatal and postnatal care.
With specialized techniques, including pregnancy pillows and adjustable tables, care is tailored to ensure both safety and comfort for moms-to-be.
Why would a baby or child need a chiropractor?
The birthing process can cause stress on a baby’s nervous system, especially during long labors, medicated deliveries, or cesareans.
This trauma can kick a child’s nervous system into fight-or-flight mode, affecting sleep, nursing, digestion, and overall behavior.
Gentle adjustments address spinal nerve stress, promoting better health and development in infants and children.
Once I see a chiropractor, do I have to go forever?
Our goal is to restore and maintain optimal nervous system function. Many patients choose to continue with periodic check-ups for long-term health benefits.
