1. What is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care is a holistic, drug-free approach to health that focuses on the vital relationship between your spine and nervous system. At The Wellness Path, we recognize that misalignments in the spine—called subluxations—can disrupt the communication between your brain and body. This interference may lead to discomfort, reduced function, and overall imbalance. Through precise and gentle chiropractic adjustments, we restore alignment and help your body heal naturally—allowing it to function at its highest potential.
2. Who Benefits from Chiropractic Care?
Everyone! From newborns just hours old to adults well into their 90s and beyond, chiropractic care supports health and vitality at every stage of life. Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, improved mobility, or a proactive way to enhance your well-being, chiropractic care can help.
Dr. Vic has personally experienced the benefits of chiropractic care for over 22 years and is passionate about helping others unlock their body’s full potential.
3. Is Chiropractic Care Safe?
Yes—chiropractic care is one of the safest forms of healthcare. Adjustments are gentle, specific, and personalized to each individual. Chiropractors consistently carry some of the lowest malpractice insurance rates in healthcare, which reflects the safety of the profession. At The Wellness Path, your comfort and well-being are always our top priority. We take the time to make every adjustment safe, effective, and tailored to your needs.
4. Does a Chiropractic Adjustment Hurt?
Not at all! Most patients describe adjustments as relieving, relaxing, and even energizing. By releasing tension in the nervous system, chiropractic care helps restore balance and ease throughout the body. Our doctors specialize in a variety of gentle techniques to ensure your experience is both effective and comfortable. If you have concerns, just let us know—we’re here to support you every step of the way.
5. Can I Tell If I Have a Subluxation?
Not always. Subluxations don’t always cause pain—but they do interfere with how well your nervous system functions. Since less than 10% of the nerves in your body sense pain, it’s entirely possible to have spinal misalignments without any symptoms. That’s why regular chiropractic checkups—just like dental cleanings—are so important. They help detect and correct issues before they become bigger health concerns.
6. Why Don’t I Usually Get Adjusted on My First Visit?
Because your health matters, and we take the time to do things right. Your first visit at The Wellness Path includes a detailed consultation, thorough examination, and an in-depth nervous system assessment. We review your results carefully to design a personalized plan that meets your specific needs. On your second visit, we’ll walk you through your findings and explain the recommended care plan moving forward.
7. When Will I Feel Better?
Healing is a journey, and everyone responds differently. Since the nervous system controls every healing process in the body, your recovery depends on how long the issue has been present and how well your body adapts to care. Our comprehensive assessment helps us determine the best course of care so we can support your health goals as efficiently as possible.
8. I Tried Chiropractic Before and It Didn’t Work. Why Should I Try Again?
Because you deserve to feel your best—and not all chiropractic care is the same. There are over 300 different chiropractic techniques, and finding the right approach is key. At The Wellness Path, we use advanced neurological assessments and tailor care to your unique needs. If you’ve had a less-than-great experience elsewhere, we invite you to discover the difference with our personalized approach.
9. Once You Start Going, Do You Have to Keep Going Forever?
Only if you want to continue feeling great! Just like healthy eating, regular exercise, or dental checkups, chiropractic care is a lifestyle choice that helps maintain your well-being. Many of our patients choose ongoing care because they love how they feel and function when their nervous system is working at its best—but the choice is always yours.
10. How Much Does an Adjustment Cost?
We believe in personalized care, not one-size-fits-all pricing. That’s why we start with a complimentary consultation, where you can meet our doctors, share your health goals, and learn more about how chiropractic care works. Since lasting results require consistency, we don’t recommend a per-visit model. Instead, we design care plans based on your unique needs to ensure the best possible outcomes.
11. Do You Take My Insurance?
We don’t bill insurance directly, but we provide all the documentation you need to submit claims for reimbursement. Our focus is on providing the highest-quality care without limitations set by insurance companies. Before beginning care, we’ll go over all financial details so you can make the best decision for your health—no surprises.
