What Chiropractic is?
Chiropractic Care is the practice where through non-invasive therapies like adjustments or manual manipulation of the segments of the spine, we restore the connection and communication between the brain, the spinal cord, and the rest of the body that was interrupted by what we call a subluxation. When we unleash our innate intelligence, healing begins. We diagnose, treat, and prevent issues affecting the nerves, muscles, or other organs. Chiropractors treat conditions related to back pain, neck pain, sports injuries, auto accidents/injuries, sciatic pain, extremity pain, headaches, vertigo/dizziness, pregnant women, pediatric populations, and much more.
Given the importance of this matter, you want to ensure that your chiropractor is meeting all of your needs. Not just treating the pain but educating you on your problem and working with you to fix it so that you can be more functional. We do this by addressing the root cause of the pain to achieve the best results in an effective and efficient way. Below are some tips you can consider when choosing the best chiropractor for you.
Decide on Your Needs
A thorough exam will determine what type of treatment will be recommended to you. Once the chiropractor has gone through the patient’s history, a physical exam, and x-rays (if medically necessary), then the doctor can decide what type of treatment would be appropriate for you. The doctors will consider what treatment type that is best for your needs, your daily activities, and your goals, that is the type of treatment plan that will be made for you. Every patient’s treatment plan is personalized to address their needs and goals. We work together to reach your health goals.
Get Recommendations
Google reviews would be the best recommendations because they speak of our clinic and how we treat our patients in general. Our patients make honest reviews of the outcomes they get after getting treated by us. Every person is different and has different needs, chiropractic might not be for everyone, but it is definitely for the majority of people (if you have a spine) that are dealing with aches and pains.
If you still have doubts, you can always ask a friend or family member that has been to a chiropractor, and they can give you their feedback on their experience. If any of your friends or family members have sought the services of a chiropractor before, they are a good source to give you recommendations. We promise that here at Roach Family Wellness, we strive for excellent service toward our patients and will make of your visit the best chiropractic experience possible.
Your general practitioner can also be a good source of recommendation for a chiropractor. Also, your general practitioner may be well aware of your current illnesses and can refer you to a chiropractor specializing in your condition and for your specific needs.
You are always more than welcome to look us up on google and see our websites, in addition to our social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram.
Research on the Chiropractor’s Credentials
Search on websites such as doctor listing and review sites, your state licensing board website, or the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) to find qualified and licensed chiropractors. A chiropractor with a license from the chiropractic state licensing board indicates that they sat for examinations the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NCBE) conducted and has a Doctor of Chiropractic degree.
Ascertaining the credentials of a chiropractor can increase your confidence in them and make you feel more comfortable having them attend to you. Knowing their credentials will also help narrow your search if you are still conflicted.
Talk to people that they have helped.
Schedule a New Patient Consultation
Attending a chiropractor’s new patient consultation will help you feel comfortable with a doctor-patient relationship. You may also determine the chiropractor’s location and the convenience of their clinic hours in relation to your needs, day-to-day activities, and goals. We have the convenience of having two locations to be able to serve more patients.
When you are at our clinics, you are more than welcome to request a tour of our facilities to observe our equipment and get a general feel of the facilities. In addition, you be able to observe that our state-of-the-art facilities are organized, clean, safe, and fun. You will also be able to see it reflected in the impeccable staff that we count on.
During your visit, you would also be able to inquire about the chiropractor’s experience, including their treatment techniques, expected outcomes, price, and modes of payment.
Confirm the Services the Chiropractor Offers
The last thing you may want to do before fully settling on a chiropractor is to circle back to your list of needs and check off whether the chiropractor offers those services. The services you require may differ based on your cause of injury or even the area of injury. For your luck at Roach Family Wellness, we treat all types of conditions related to your Musculoskeletal system and Nervous System.
