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

Are chiropractors real doctors?
Chiropractors are not medical doctors (MDs) but are doctors of chiropractic (DCs). They undergo extensive training and are licensed healthcare professionals.
Can chiropractic care help with sciatica?

How long does a chiropractic adjustment take?
Adjustments typically take a few minutes per session, but your overall visit time may vary depending on additional therapies or treatments.
What is the popping sound during an adjustment?

Is chiropractic care covered by insurance?
Many insurance plans cover chiropractic care, but coverage can vary widely. It’s best to check with your insurance provider to understand your benefits.

Can chiropractic care help with allergies or asthma?
While chiropractic adjustments are not a direct treatment for allergies or asthma, some patients report improved immune function and respiratory function with regular care.
What is the difference between chiropractic care and physical therapy?
Chiropractic care focuses on spinal and joint adjustments to improve nerve function and musculoskeletal alignment, while physical therapy emphasises exercises and rehabilitation to restore movement and function.
Can chiropractic care help with tension headaches?
Yes, chiropractic adjustments and spinal manipulations can alleviate tension headaches by reducing muscle tension and improving blood flow to the head and neck.
Is chiropractic care appropriate after surgery?
Depending on the type of surgery and your recovery, chiropractic care may be beneficial for restoring mobility and function. Always consult with your surgeon or physician.
Can chiropractic care help with digestive issues?
Chiropractic adjustments primarily focus on the musculoskeletal system, but some patients report improved digestion and overall wellness with regular care.
