If you have neck or back pain but have never seen a chiropractor, you might be missing out on a great opportunity. Spinal manipulation has been around for thousands of years, only to come back in the form of chiropractic much later. Daniel David Palmer is considered to be the founder of modern chiropractic care in the 1890s. We have enlisted some quick tips for new patients below.

1. Corrective chiropractic is one of the best options for dealing with sports injuries and sudden pain if you are wanting to not only address the issue and reduce the pain, but to also put you in a position to where you are less likely to suffer from that injury or the same severity again. Chiropractic doesn’t involve surgery, drugs or medicine. This type of treatment is extremely popular in Australia, United States and Canada, where people have found many benefits, including relief from back pain, headaches, arthritis and joint pain, scoliosis, even some have reported decreased symptoms of asthma, blood pressure and ear infections. Also, pregnant women often choose to go to chiropractors for to address low back pain and better organ function.

2. Chiropractic care is all about natural healing. Chiropractors believe that our body has the natural ability to heal itself under the right conditions. These conditions are created by the chiropractors by removing or alleviating nerve pressure in the spine. Usually, treatments are not painful.

3. It is very important for a patient to talk in detail with the chiropractor before starting the treatment. In many cases, the first session may offer instant relief, while some patients may need more than a few sessions before seeing results. However, it is imperative that you know and understand the treatment plan and ask plenty of questions. If you have doubts, do not hesitate to ask!

4. Chiropractors may use other forms of treatment to offer the patient faster results. These include cold laser therapy, ARP therapy and even spinal (neck and lowback) decompression. All these treatments are non-invasive so you can avoid the unwanted risks and costs associated with surgeries. However, it is important to find the approach that you are most comfortable with. Ask about the therapies needed, and there is no harm in knowing about the experience and expertise of the chiropractor either.

5. Lastly, choose a clinic that you are comfortable in. Many patients are often anxious about their chiropractic sessions, but the overall environment and staff behavior can make all the difference. Many clinics will have the necessary diagnostics, such as an x-ray machine, which is an added advantage. It is also a good idea to ask about evaluation cost in advance. Treatment cost might be difficult to address before your evaluation, as the doctor’s office will not know exactly what’s wrong, exactly what needs to be addressed and exactly what treatment options work best for you.
