Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral from my doctor to see a chiropractor?

In most cases, you do not need a referral to see a chiropractor. Chiropractors are primary healthcare providers and can assess, diagnose, and treat musculoskeletal conditions independently. However, some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage, so it’s best to check with your insurance provider.

What should I expect during my first chiropractic visit?

During your first visit, your chiropractor will take a comprehensive health history, perform a physical examination, and may order diagnostic tests if necessary. Based on this information, they will develop a personalized treatment plan and explain what to expect during your subsequent visits.

What is Low Level Laser Therapy? DOES LOW LEVEL LASER THERAPY HURT?

No, Erchoniaโ€™s low level lasers do not heat or freeze the skin.
Low level laser therapy is a form of alternative medicine that uses laser light at low levels. The light is applied to the surface skin of the body with the intentions of decreasing pain or inflammation, promoting healing of wounds, tissues, and nerves, or for preventing tissue damage. This is much different than the high-level lasers that we know for surgical procedures to cut and destroy unhealthy tissue.

 

Is chiropractic treatment safe?

Yes, chiropractic treatment is generally considered safe when performed by a licensed and trained chiropractor. Chiropractors undergo extensive education and training to ensure safe and effective treatment. They use gentle, non-invasive techniques to adjust the spine and other joints.

Does chiropractic care hurt?

Chiropractic adjustments are typically painless, although you may experience some mild discomfort or soreness afterward, similar to the feeling after exercising. Most patients find chiropractic care to be relaxing and relieving.
