What Chiropractic Is … NOT
Hello N-Community!
I’m happy that I’m seeing more videos and interest in chiropractic. I spend a lot of time with my patients explaining what chiropractic is. But, we need to dive into what chiropractic is…not. Here are my top 3 that I feel like you need to know ASAP!
- Chiropractic is NOT ASMR pops and cracks on Youtube or Tik-Tok
As Whitney Houston said, “Crack is wack!” An adjustment does not have to make a sound for it to work. Chiropractic is not about the pop. It’s about the release of muscle tension. It’s about the increase in range of motion. It’s about improving communication between your brain and all areas of your body; creating a true release for your system to shift from uptight and dysfunctional to relaxed and mobile. At N-LINE Health establishing a relaxed state of being starts the moment you walk through the door to a tranquil place to start your health journey.
- Chiropractic is NOT assembly line or “one size fits all” treatment
At some places you don’t get the time or attention you need, your complaints are not heard. You have to repeat yourself 3,4,5x. You are treated like a car at the shop. You’re given a standard package that may not be for you and you’re pushed out the door as fast as possible. In, Out, Done. This may work for some but at N-LINE Health, we give you a full picture of your health along with a personalized treatment plan designed to satisfy your specific needs. We’re focused on matching your treatment to your body, not the other way around.
- Chiropractic is NOT one technique
A lot of people think that chiropractic is done one way; the way they’ve seen on social media videos, but there are over 300 techniques for delivering an adjustment. There are techniques that use an instrument, techniques that are more specialized to specific areas of the body or conditions, techniques that use a very light pressure, techniques that focus on energy within the body, and many more. There are also different methods for assessment ranging from soft tissue palpation to x-ray imaging. At N-LINE Health we assess and treat you based on your specific needs.
