Yes, chiropractic when performed by a trained and licensed professional, is a safe non-invasive effective treatment for increasing brain body communication among infants/kiddos (especially during their early vital developmental stages), young adults, adults, and the elderly. At Willow Sage, we use safe, gentle, specific, effective chiropractic adjustments tailored to your body and your needs.

An adjustment is a way of removing nerve interference to open up communication between your brain and body allowing for better nerve balance and adaptation. Most adjustments are performed by hand, while some use specialized instruments or adjusting tables for added comfort and precision.

The popping sound is simply the release of gas from between your joints. We have no way of knowing how much sound there will be. It is all dependent on your body, muscle tension, possible degeneration, the amount of gas in between your joints, and how your joints move. Some adjustments are loud and others are silent. Both are equally effective.

This depends on multiple factors as well as the type of care you are looking for. We take the time to listen to your story, evaluate how your nervous system is functioning, identify the root causes of imbalance, and create a personalized care plan that is aligned with your health goals. Some choose to come for pain relief while others make it a part of their holistic wellness regime.

On your first visit, we will review your initial intake form, gather any additional information needed, determine your goals for care, perform a neurological chiropractic assessment, evaluate your posture, and determine if x-rays are needed. X-rays are a great additional tool for seeing your body’s blueprint and allowing more specificity with your adjustments and care.

Physical Therapy and Chiropractic compliment one another. Physical therapy focuses more on your muscular system and getting proper firing ocurring, while chiropractic focuses on the nervous system/joints, making sure your joints are in the correct position so your nerves are communicating fully with your muscles and body. When combined, your body typically has quicker recovery times.
