New Patient Frequently Asked Questions

What a process! You’ve been through our Comprehensive Examination, reviewed all the results (yes I know, there was a lot to cover…), received a crash course in spinal and neurological function, and have been accepted into our corrective care program.  

Still, there may be some looming questions about chiropractic I didn’t answer and we want to make absolutely sure you understand everything possible in order to get the best results.  

That’s why I’ve amassed this mega-list of the most common (and not so common) questions I field every day… I know if one person is asking, there’s likely ten others wishing they knew the answer too!

What exactly is a chiropractic adjustment?    

How do you know when an adjustment worked?    

Why don’t I feel any different after an adjustment?    

Is it ok to have adjustments on back-to-back days?    

I’m starting to notice that I have more energy and I’m sleeping better… is this normal?    

Sometimes there are very few adjustments required while other times there are several… what’s going on here?    

What can I do to speed up my recovery?    

Should I exercise before or after my check-ups?    

Should I also be seeing a Physiotherapist or Registered Massage Therapist?    

How come no one has ever told me this is what Chiropractic is all about?    

Why does my insurance only cover a portion of my required corrective care?
