  • A chiropractic adjustment is a manual therapy technique used to restore proper joint alignment and improve movement. Your chiropractor uses their hands or a specialized instrument to apply controlled force to the spine or extremities, helping reduce pain, improve function, and support your body’s natural healing process.

  • The popping sound you may hear during a chiropractic adjustment is completely normal. It occurs when gas bubbles are released from the joint due to a change in pressure — similar to the sound you hear when cracking your knuckles. This release happens as your chiropractor gently manipulates the joint to restore proper alignment and mobility.

    The adjustment itself typically involves little to no discomfort, and the sound is simply a natural byproduct of the process — not the bones themselves moving or breaking.

  • Yes — chiropractic care is safe for children and can be highly beneficial as they grow and develop. During childhood, the spine and nervous system go through significant changes, and gentle chiropractic adjustments can help maintain proper alignment, support healthy posture, and prevent future issues related to movement, pain, or injury. Our approach is always age-appropriate, gentle, and tailored to each child’s unique needs.

  • Yes — chiropractic care is safe for women during pregnancy, and many expectant mothers find it helpful for managing common discomforts such as back pain, pelvic pressure, and postural changes. Chiropractors are trained to work with pregnant patients using gentle, modified techniques that support the changing needs of the body throughout each trimester. Regular chiropractic care during pregnancy can help improve comfort, mobility, and overall well-being.
