FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is chiropractic safe?
YES. Chiropractic is a non-surgical, drug-free approach to health which places chiropractic among the safest of all health care practices. Chiropractic focuses on the body's ability to heal itself.
Does chiropractic wear out the joints?
NO. Chiropractic care can help prevent the joints from wearing out. Your bones don't "rub" together. Each joint is surrounded by fluid that should offer a lifetime of friction free movement. When there is loss of proper motion of spinal bones, the movement becomes restricted causing spinal joints to attempt to make up the difference by moving too much. Chiropractic adjustments are directed only to those areas that are not moving enough.
Who should see a chiropractor?
Nerve interference, subluxation, muscle and joint pain can affect anyone, which is why people of all ages are experiencing relief and improved health through chiropractic care. Doctors of chiropractic are highly qualified professionals in evaluating and caring for these, as well as many other health problems.
What should I expect at my first visit?
Your initial visit will begin with a consultation. Dr. Lamb will take a case history and ask about your present condition. Dr. Lamb will then perform an examination which generally includes a series of basic physical tests, as well as a specialized chiropractic evaluation of spinal movement and posture. After completing the analysis, Dr. Lamb will explain your problem and map out an appropriate plan of action with you. Dr. Lamb will discuss your care plan with you, taking into consideration your health habits, stress, and activity levels. Our office features an open adjusting room. This means that you're often in the room with others while seeing the chiropractor. This environment allows for constant interaction and education on health and wellness.
Is chiropractic care expensive? Will my insurance cover?
Chiropractic has demonstrated itself to be one of the most cost effective forms of care in all of the health care market. Dr. Lamb accepts most insurance companies. You will find the fees at Lamb Chiropractic to be very reasonable and affordable.
