Is chiropractic care addictive?
No, but it is possible to get used to feeling more balanced, less stressed and more energetic as a result of regular chiropractic care.

Why do you use X-rays in your practice?
We take X-rays to reveal the alignment of your spine. We are also concerned about underlying disease processes such as degenerative disc and joint disease, arthritis, disc disorders, tumors, congenital anomalies, bone spurs, and spinal curvature. X-rays also provide a blueprint for correcting the spine back to a normally aligned position. The precise X-rays taken in our office are necessary to make the measurements used in the vectored analysis to correct spinal misalignments. We use the principles of engineering, mathematics, and physics to correct spines. Therefore, we take before and after X-rays to make sure we have corrected your spine as precisely as possible.

Will someone benefit from a spinal correction if they have no pain or problems?
Many people have their spinal misalignment for years before the pain develops. It is easier to prevent problems later on by correcting the misalignment before pain develops. Schedule a FREE consultation to determine whether or not your spine is misaligned.

Are all chiropractors the same?
There are over 300 different chiropractic techniques used to correct spinal misalignments. N.U.C.C.A. is one of those techniques. One of the main differences between N.U.C.C.A. and the most familiar form of chiropractic is that there is no twisting, cracking or popping of the spine during a N.U.C.C.A. spinal correction. The specific before and after X-rays and the vectored X-ray analysis are also unique to N.U.C.C.A.

Can you help a person who has had back surgery? Can back surgery sometimes be prevented?
Many of the patients we care for have come to us to prevent spinal surgery. We also have many patients who have already had surgery, but still have their original symptoms, or new ones. We are not opposed to surgery when necessary, but many times it can be avoided by correcting the spinal misalignment. Our procedure is safe even if you have had laminectomies, fused vertebrae, or disc removal. We have a very conservative approach to spine and spine-related problems. Drug therapy only masks symptoms, allowing the problem to worsen. Anything that cannot recover completely may require rehabilitation. Surgery becomes necessary for anything that cannot recover or be rehabilitated.

Is keeping my spine corrected all I need to do to stay healthy and well?
In health care, there is not a linear sequence when it comes to determining the cause of health problems and what the appropriate care of the body may be. For example, when a person has low back pain, who should they go to: a chiropractor, an acupuncturist, a massage therapist, or a medical doctor? The choices are confusing for most people. Many of us in health care are becoming more aware of the need to examine all aspects of life and look for the appropriate tools to restore health and wellness. Good nutrition, exercise, rest, an aligned spine, psychological and emotional wellness: All of these combined are necessary for optimal health and well-being.
