es. Chiropractic care is widely recognized as a safe, conservative, and non-invasive approach for managing musculoskeletal health. Our clinical protocols at Falcon Chiropractic are backed by extensive modern scientific literature. Notably, comprehensive research and meta-analyses highlighted by leading neurophysiologists like Dr. Heidi Haavik demonstrate that the risk of serious adverse events from a chiropractic adjustment is extraordinarily low—comparable to or safer than many routine healthcare interventions.
How many chiropractic adjustments will I need?
The recommended number of adjustments varies from one individual to another along with their goals. It is important to understand that your body requires time to heal, and each adjustment helps build upon the last. Some cases require ongoing following the initial phase, but as you progress and your spine begins to stabilise, your chiropractor will set you up with a less frequent schedule.
How long until I feel better?
How fast you heal is affected by many factors; the chronicity of the problem, getting adequate rest, nutrition and exercise and keeping to your schedule. Some experience rapid relief, while others discover it can take many weeks to months. Your chiropractor will consider how you are feeling and how your body is functioning because structure dictates function and this ultimately affects how fast you respond to care.
How does Chiropractic care work?
You are a self-healing, self-regulating organism controlled by your nervous system. Millions of instructions from your brain flow down your spinal cord to every organ, tissue and cell within your body and signals are sent back to your brain confirming everything is working correctly. Stiff or immobile joints, known as subluxations, can interfere with your body’s ability to communicate with your brain, which if left unaddressed can lead to swelling and irritation of the surrounding soft tissues.
