It’s not always the case. The three primary causes usually involve physical trauma, emotional stress, or exposure to chemical toxins. Occasionally, these factors might combine to contribute to the issue. Through our examination process, we aim to pinpoint the most probable cause(s) for better understanding and treatment.

Subluxations typically stem from three fundamental sources. Physical causes encompass incidents like slips, falls, accidents, repetitive movements, and incorrect lifting techniques. Emotional factors like stress, anger, and fear can also contribute to subluxations. Additionally, chemical causes may involve exposure to substances like alcohol, drugs, preservatives, pollution, and an unhealthy diet. The pain you’re experiencing is genuine, and psychological factors contributing to pain are frequently observed. However, considering psychological causes as a “diagnosis” often occurs when healthcare providers have exhausted other potential explanations for your condition. In such instances, we have frequently discovered that undetected subluxations might be the probable underlying cause.

Certain patients experience rapid improvements, while others notice a gradual reduction in symptoms over several weeks or even longer with chiropractic care. Predicting the exact timeline of improvement is impossible. Especially for chronic conditions like long-term headaches, progress might take time. We closely monitor your advancements and adjust our recommendations accordingly to ensure optimal care.

A shift is occurring. Long-held prejudices and biases are yielding to research highlighting the advantages of chiropractic care. Although attitudes are slow to transform, the public’s increasing preference for alternatives to medication and surgery is prompting more medical practitioners to recommend chiropractors.
