FAQ
Commonly Asked Questions
What conditions can a chiropractor help with?
Chiropractic care will treat conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, joint discomfort, sports injuries, muscle tension, and posture-related issues. Our goal is to improve mobility, reduce pain, and support your body’s natural ability to heal.
What happens during my first chiropractic appointment?
Your first visit includes a detailed health history, discussion of your symptoms and goals, a physical examination, and X-rays if warranted. After reviewing the findings, your chiropractor will explain their recommendations and discuss a personalized treatment plan.
Is chiropractic care safe?
Chiropractic care is widely recognized as a safe, non-invasive treatment option when provided by a licensed chiropractor. Every treatment is tailored to the individual, and your comfort and safety are always our top priorities.
Do I need a referral from my doctor?
No. Chiropractors are primary healthcare providers, which means you can book an appointment directly without a referral from a physician.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily. Athletic or loose-fitting clothing is ideal, especially if movement assessments are part of your examination.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of visits varies depending on your condition, health goals, lifestyle, and how long you’ve been experiencing symptoms. Your chiropractor will discuss a recommended treatment plan after your assessment.
Can chiropractic care help prevent future problems?
Regular chiropractic care will help maintain mobility, improve posture, reduce muscle tension, and address minor issues before they develop into larger problems, helping you stay active and feeling your best.
Do we treat elderly patients, and those with osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, or a history of surgery?
We welcome patients of all ages and recognize that a history of extremity or spinal surgery, osteoarthritis, or osteoporosis requires a highly individualized approach. With extensive clinical experience in managing these cases and the use of digital X-rays for accurate assessment, our team provides safe, evidence-informed care tailored to your needs and comfort.
What if I'm not in pain?
Chiropractic care isn’t only for pain relief. Many patients seek care to improve movement, enhance posture, support athletic performance, and maintain overall spinal and joint health.
Do we treat babies and growing children?
Dr. Dhalla and Dr. Serena combine professional expertise with personal experience as parents, recognizing the vital role chiropractic care can play in a child’s development. They care for patients from infancy through the preteen years.
