When it comes to Chiropractic treatment there seems to be a hodge-podge of misinformation out there, so we wanted to take a few minutes and clear up the most common misconceptions.
Myth 1 – Once you go to a chiropractor you always have to go.
The truth is that continuing to receive adjustments or not is totally up to the individual patient. Many patients find relief in just a few sessions and may use chiropractic as a fix rather than preventative. There is nothing wrong with that at all. It has been shown though that chiropractic care throughout your life works well preventatively too and as body maintenance.
Myth 2 – Getting adjusted is painful
The sound is far worse than anything. You hear a click, pop, or crunch when an adjustment is made. The movement usually brings relief alleviating discomfort. The adjustment itself is painless.
Myth 3 – Chiropractors can only fix back and neck pain
While chiropractic specializes in spinal health through manual manipulations it can help your body heal from so much more than just back and neck pain. It can help with high blood pressure, fibromyalgia, arthritis, auto accident injuries, pinched nerves, sciatica, digestion issues, and much more. If you are wondering if it might help you, just ask!
Myth 4 – Chiropractors aren’t real doctors
Nothing could be more false. Chiropractic Physicians are legitimate medical professionals, just like any other licensed doctors. They completed their studies in chiropractic healthcare and have been licensed. Many times, their chiropractic degrees are complimented with undergraduate degrees and post graduate degrees. Chiropractors are governed by a licensing board the same as medical doctors. They need to be certified first before they have the right to practice chiropractic techniques legally after completing clinical internships. Once these qualifications are met, only then are they granted license.
