  • Is chiropractic care safe?

  • What should I expect during my first visit?

  • Do chiropractic adjustments hurt?

    Most adjustments are gentle and feel relieving. You might hear a pop or crack, which is simply gas being released from the joint. Some patients feel instant relief, while others may feel mild soreness, like after a workout.
