Frequently Asked Questions in Flemington

Chiropractic works by taking pressure off your nerves and allowing your spine to have proper motion and position. By doing so, this allows your body the ability to heal naturally the best it can of whatever ails you. It also allows you to be as strong and healthy naturally as you can be.

Adjustments are successful when the proper motion and position of the spine is obtained. Sometimes you will hear a sound like cracking your knuckles which are just gas pockets in the fluid of your spinal joints. It is usually a good sign of a release but not required for a successful adjustment as other components like stretching the muscles, ligaments and tendons are involved in your recovery!
