A: Many people assume that an adjustment is just "cracking" a back. In reality, your chiropractor is attempting to align your spine in order to promote optimal function of muscles, joints and the nervous system. The sound made during an adjustment has commonly been described as a "crack, " however, it is actually more of popping sound - a release of gas from the joint as it is quickly opened and closed (think of opening a can of soda).
Chiropractic supports the concept that proper function of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems can provide for better health. When a chiropractor works with a patient, the cause of the patient's physical problem is addressed and lifestyle factors that may affect the problems (such as diet, posture, exercise, and others) are modified to speed recovery and prevent recurrence.

As someone who struggles with chronic back pain/herniated discs, Wheat chiropractic is a life saver! Dr. Wheat always fits me in and works on my back when I need help. He is very knowledgeable and always goes above and beyond to make sure he's done what he can to help my back. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for chiropractic services!
