Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
What Does a Chiropractor Do?
Chiropractors are healthcare professionals who specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions that affect the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system. Through gentle, non-invasive chiropractic adjustments and hands-on therapies, they help relieve pain, restore proper movement, improve mobility, and support your body’s natural ability to heal.
Rather than simply covering up symptoms, chiropractic care focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying cause of discomfort. Many people turn to chiropractic treatment for relief from back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, joint stiffness, poor posture, and injuries related to sports, work, or everyday activities.
What Do Chiropractors Treat?
Chiropractors provide expert care for conditions affecting the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system through gentle, non-invasive, and drug-free treatment. Many people visit a chiropractor for relief from back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches, joint stiffness, sports injuries, poor posture, and other musculoskeletal concerns. Using targeted chiropractic adjustments and hands-on therapies, chiropractors help improve spinal alignment, restore joint mobility, reduce pain, and enhance overall body function.
Rather than focusing solely on symptom relief, chiropractic care is designed to identify and address the underlying source of pain or dysfunction. This whole-body approach can support faster recovery, improve movement and flexibility, reduce the risk of future injuries, and promote long-term health and wellness.
Is Chiropractic Care Safe?
Chiropractic care is a safe, non-invasive, and effective treatment option for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, joint discomfort, and mobility issues. When performed by a licensed chiropractor, chiropractic adjustments help improve spinal alignment, restore joint function, relieve pain, and support overall health without the use of drugs or surgery.
Patients of all ages can benefit from chiropractic care, from infants and children to adults and older adults. Every treatment plan is customized based on the patient’s age, health history, lifestyle, and specific concerns to ensure safe, personalized care. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, improving posture, or maintaining overall wellness, chiropractic care can help you move more comfortably and live a healthier, more active life.
How Long are Appointments?
The usual chiropractic appointment lasts about 20 minutes, which is enough time for thorough, personalized treatment while keeping your visit convenient for you. We stay on schedule, so every patient receives dedicated, one-on-one care without long wait times.
The length and frequency of your chiropractic care plan will depend on your specific condition, symptoms, overall health, and treatment goals. After your comprehensive evaluation, Dr. Shapiro will explain his findings, recommend a personalized treatment plan, and discuss how often you should receive care to achieve the best possible results.
Does Chiropractic Care Hurt?
Most chiropractic adjustments are gentle, safe, and comfortable, with little to no discomfort during treatment. Many patients notice reduced pain, improved mobility, and a greater sense of well-being shortly after their adjustment. In some cases, mild soreness may occur afterward, like what you might feel after a workout. This is a normal response and usually subsides within 24 to 48 hours as your body adjusts.
Your comfort and confidence are our priority. Before beginning treatment, we’ll explain the adjustment process, discuss what you can expect, and answer any questions you may have. Our goal is to provide a positive, personalized chiropractic experience that helps you feel informed, supported, and on the path to lasting pain relief and better overall health.
Does Insurance or FSA/HSA Cover Chiropractic Services?
Most major health insurance plans and FSA/HSA plans provide coverage for chiropractic care, although benefits vary by provider and individual policy. Many plans cover services such as chiropractic adjustments, initial examinations, and medically necessary treatment for conditions like back pain, neck pain, and other musculoskeletal injuries. Coverage for ongoing wellness or maintenance care may be limited or require out-of-pocket payment.
