FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

If you have a nervous system and a spine, you can benefit from seeing a chiropractor.  Everyone with skeletal joints may experience joint restrictions, which will impede communication between the brain and the body.  We treat patients of all ages, using techniques that are appropriate for the specific needs of each patient.

The chiropractic adjustment is the act of finding and treating a joint restriction in the spine, or the extremities.  The adjustment results in improvements in mobility, efficiency of movement and function in both the brain and nervous system. It has far-reaching impacts on all body functions.

A restricted joint does not have full range of motion.  It may, or may not, be painful to touch. Some causes are:

Trauma, either acute or repetitive.

Thoughts: mental & emotional stressors.

Toxins: chemicals, processed foods, toxic metal or mold exposure.

Causes include: Sedentary lifestyles, repetitive exercise, stress, exposure to strong chemical solutions or fragrances.

Insurance does not cover the highly personalized in-depth nutrition programs that Dr. Agger designs for his nutrition patients.  However, some flexible spending accounts may be used to cover these expenses, depending on their scope.  

Chiropractic is both safe and effective in supporting successful pregnancies.  We have special tables which allow a pregnant patient to lie on her stomach in the final trimesters.  We routinely see pregnant women in the clinic for regular adjustments, which ensures they have less discomfort, back ache & sciatica. Many of them experience an easier pregnancy, labor & recovery.
