Frequently asked quick facts
Do adjustments hurt?
Most people feel slight pressure followed by relief. Mild soreness is possible and usually fades within a day.
How long before I notice change?
Simple strains often improve within 1–3 visits. Disc-related issues may take 8–12 weeks of steady progress.
Will I need lifelong visits?
Only until your goals are met. Some patients choose occasional check-ins to maintain their comfort and mobility.
Is chiropractic covered by insurance?
We are in-network with Blue Shield PPO and can submit out-of-network claims for most major insurers.
