Some of the diagnostic testing we use are blood testing, toxic and elemental hair testing, food allergy testing and more. We get our great results because we test and we use objective testing methods.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long will it take before I start to see improvement in my health problems?<\/strong><br \/>\nUnderstand that we don&#8217;t have a cure for your problem whether it is a rash, MS, diabetes or cancer. Our goal is to get you healthier. Progress is the key and there should be some definite, objective improvement within about 2 months if what we are doing and recommend is going to work. Do you have 2 months? If you can give us 2 months and you really work and do what is needed, it is highly unusual that progress\/improvement is not seen. Then the goal is to keep you improving on a consistent basis. Sometimes a 2-3% improvement in 2 months could the best that we can hope for but if you continue to improve 2-3% every 2 months for the next 2-3 years, where will you be?<\/p>\n<p><strong>What tests are required?<\/strong><br \/>\nEvery person is different. So it really depends on your particular case.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long does it take to get the test results back?<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you do the testing through our office, it usually takes no more than two weeks to get all of the test results back and your personalized detailed report completed!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I get my blood work done through my other doctor?<\/strong><br \/>\nOf course! You may get your blood work done through another doctor. However, it would be prudent for you to check your pricing thoroughly. Most patients find the price will usually be less if you get it through our office. Remember, if you decide to go through your insurance company for reimbursement, the test findings will go on your permanent record and will affect future premiums and ratings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is chiropractic care safe?<\/strong><br \/>\nAbsolutely.\u00a0Compared to other medical treatments, which include medication and surgery, chiropractic is by far the safest.\u00a0It is estimated that 140,000 people in the USA die each year from drug-related reactions and nearly 100,000 people die as result of medical errors. Insurance companies who evaluate the risks of all professions, and charge a premium based on the risk the profession poses, rate chiropractors by far as the lowest insurance premium of all health care providers. Even though thousands of chiropractic adjustments are made each year, only a few complaints are registered<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is a subluxation?<\/strong><br \/>\nSubluxation refers to a spinal bone (vertebra) that is not in its right position or not moving in its normal range of motion.\u00a0 Misaligned vertebra are irritating nerves and blood vessels, which in turn affects the way your body communicates with your spine. Subluxations are the cause of many pains and dysfunctions in muscles and organs. The body\u2019s natural ability to heal itself is greatly improved with the subluxation removed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Does the adjustment hurt?<\/strong><br \/>\nMost chiropractic adjustments are not only virtually painless, they actually feel great and relieving. In cases of a recent injury, inflamed tissue may react to adjustments and cause some discomfort.\u00a0Application of ice after treatment may soothe any irritation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Will repeated chiropractic adjustment lead to arthritis?<\/strong><br \/>\nThere is no evidence to suggest that manipulation of the spine or other chiropractic care can lead to arthritis. On the contrary, chiropractors often care for people with arthritis by maintaining joint health. Motion is life when it comes to joint health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there a minimum or maximum age for a person to receive chiropractic care?<\/strong><br \/>\nThere is no age excluded from chiropractic care. Even babies can have subluxations, due to the rigors of birth. In Denmark, for example, Chiropractic Doctors are part of the birthing team. Children&#8217;s subluxations should be treated early, as they interfere with nerves that control developing muscles and organs. of the body consist of cartilage growth centers that the bone grows from. Abnormal stresses on a rapidly developing spine and other bones and joints can cause them to develop abnormally. Your chiropractor can detect these problems while they&#8217;re easy to correct.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can chiropractors refer patients to other specialists?<\/strong><br \/>\nChiropractors are part of a network of health-care professionals. Like other doctors, they will make referrals for patients when necessary. Chiropractors are trained to recognize risk factors and signs of disease that are outside their scope of treatments and they will not hesitate to make a referral when it&#8217;s in a patient&#8217;s best interest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What makes you different from other \u00abnutritionists\u00bb or \u00abhealth professionals\u00bb?
