Frequently asked

The questions we
get most.

If yours is not here, call the office at (630) 699-9858 and ask. We would rather answer it before you book.

Good questions

Answers, in plain language.

What happens at my first visit?

We take your history, then assess how you actually move by hand. You will be told what we found and what we think is driving it before anything is treated, and in most cases treatment starts the same visit.

Do I need a referral?

No. You can book directly using the scheduling link or by calling the office.

Is chiropractic care safe?

Chiropractic is a drug-free, non-surgical approach with a long safety record. We assess before we treat, and where a forceful adjustment would not be appropriate, such as with disc involvement, we use gentler options like flexion distraction instead.

Does an adjustment hurt?

Most people find the adjustment itself quick and easy. Soft tissue work such as ART or dry needling can be uncomfortable while it is happening, and we will tell you before we do it rather than surprising you.

How many visits will I need?

It depends on what we find, how long it has been going on, and what you need to get back to. You will get an honest answer after the assessment rather than a package quoted before we have examined you.

Do you take my insurance?

Coverage differs a lot between plans, so the honest answer is to call us at (630) 699-9858 with your details and we will go through it with you before you commit to anything.

Do you treat people who are not athletes?

Yes, and most of our patients are not competing at anything. The sports training simply means we are used to working out why something keeps coming back under load, which applies just as much to a desk job as to a race.
