Chiropractor patient results vary. At Discover Chiropractic in Fremont, CA, many patients report improved spinal curves and the total resumption of their normal lifestyles.

Why Don’t Medical Practitioners And Chiropractic Doctors Get Along?

DrHans — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 05:20:23 +0000

That’s changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. Attitudes are slow to change. However, as the public demands alternatives to drugs are surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to our chiropractic office.

Will The Chiropractor Give Me Any Medication For My Pain?

DrHans — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 04:41:46 +0000

No you won’t get any medication for your pain. Chiropractic doctors do not dispense drugs. Because we rely on natural methods, we can show you how to use ice to control painful symptoms. When proper applied, ice can have an analgesic effect without the side effects of pain medications.

Can I Have Chiropractic Care After Back Surgery?

DrHans — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 04:54:34 +0000

Yes, you can have chiropractic care after your back surgery. Rest assured that your chiropractic doctor will avoid the surgically modified areas of your spine. Surgery often causes instability above or below the involved level. These areas will be the focus of your chiropractic care.

Why Do Newborns Get Chiropractic Adjustments?

DrHans — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 17:21:13 +0000

Even today’s “natural” childbirth methods can affect an infant’s spine. Preliminary studies suggest that colic, unusual crying, poor appetite, ear infections or erratic sleeping habits can be signs of spinal distress. Pediatric chiropractic adjustments are gentle. Knowing exactly where to adjust, the doctor applies no more pressure than you’d use to test the ripeness of a tomato.

You can get more information on gentle chiropractic care by contacting Dr. Hans at 510-797-4796. His staff of chiropractors in Fremont, CA and Union City, CA are always available to answer your health questions.

How Many Chiropractic Adjustments Will I Need?

DrHans — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 03:19:02 +0000

The number of chiropractic adjustments varies with each patient and his or her individual health goals. At our Fremont neck and back care center, many patients sense progress within a week or two of frequent visits. Visits become less often as your spine stabilizes. In chronic cases, complete healing can take months or even years.
