Common Misconceptions About Chiropractic Care

1. Chiropractic care is only for back pain.

While chiropractic care is widely known for treating back pain, it can also be effective for a range of other issues such as neck pain, headaches, sciatica, joint pain, and stress. Chiropractic adjustments help restore the body's alignment, improving overall function and health.

2. Chiropractic care is dangerous and causes injury.

Chiropractic care, when performed by a licensed and experienced chiropractor, is safe. Millions of people seek chiropractic care every year with minimal side effects. Dr. Daniel Pennell tailors treatments to each patient’s individual needs to ensure optimal safety.

3. Once you go to a chiropractor, you have to keep going forever.

Chiropractic care is often recommended on an as-needed basis. Some people choose to continue regular chiropractic visits as part of a wellness plan to maintain their health, but it's not mandatory. Many patients seek chiropractic care for specific issues and stop once they’ve achieved their desired results.

4. Chiropractic care is only for adults.

Chiropractic care can be beneficial for patients of all ages, including children and seniors. In fact, children can benefit from chiropractic care for conditions like colic, ear infections, postural issues, and sports injuries. Seniors often seek chiropractic care to help with mobility, arthritis, and general wellness.

5. Chiropractic adjustments are painful.

While some people may experience mild soreness after an adjustment, chiropractic treatments are generally gentle and non-invasive. Dr. Pennell ensures that the techniques used are comfortable and effective for your specific needs.
