FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
Chiropractic is an all natural form of health care that is based on the diagnosis and correction of joint misalignment, especially those within the spinal column. These misalignments are often the cause of deeper underlying issues in patients such as nerve and muscle pain and, in more serious cases, cell, organ and tissue dysfunction.
WHY SHOULD THE WHOLE FAMILY SEE A CHIROPRACTOR?
Chiropractic treatment is a proven method to affect overall nervous system function and wellness, without the need for invasive procedure or medications. Through correct alignment of the spine, it grants the nervous system the ability to reach its full potential, every member of the family can achieve optimal health and wellness.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CHIROPRACTIC?
There are countless benefits to chiropractic care. As we just mentioned, our Carmel Chiropractor can help address problems that are distant from the proximity of the spine.
Chiropractic care can be the solution to headaches, neck pain, back pain, overall pain relief, stiffness and other ongoing issues that have been bothering you for years. Whether the cause is from poor posture, an accident, genetics or other factors, chiropractic can help address the issues and relieve pain and discomfort for everyone in the Carmel, Zionsville, and Indianapolis communities. For example, that persistent, recurring pain in your extremities or low back pain might actually be caused by an issue in the spine.
WHAT IS PREVENTATIVE CARE VS “SICK” CARE?
In traditional doctor’s offices, the plan is to look at your body after you’re already experiencing problems. There are over 2,000 diseases and syndromes with an even wider array of treatments for them. In this way, you are being reactive to your health instead of being proactive.
With chiropractic care, the focus is on preventative and all-natural solutions which attack the root of your problems. Dr. Nick's focus at Hope Chiropractic is to correct subluxations in the spine to allow your nervous system to function properly. If you’re in search of preventative healthcare options in the Zionsville or Carmel area, we believe that we can help you. Our staff is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in providing great care. Give our team a call today.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes, we are in network with some of the major insurance companies and will run a complementary benefits check during your first visit. Please bring your picture ID and insurance card so our team can complete the complimentary benefits check to see exactly what your specific insurance policy covers. Call the office to verify if we are in network with your company.
How many visits will I need?
Every individual case is different. We will not know exactly how many visits you will need before we've had the opportunity to review your health history and complete a thorough spinal exam.
Will I need x-rays
At Hope Chiropractic we do not guess when it comes to your health. X-rays allow us to understand exactly what is happening beneath the skin and are recommended for most adults before receiving care.
Will adjustments hurt?
No, our chiropractic adjustments are safe, gentle, and effective. We don’t utilize any twisting, cracking or popping.
Is it easy to change my appointment time?
Yes, we utilize a scheduling app that allows you to easily adjust your appointments at a click of a button.
