Frequently Asked Questions

We hear this question a lot at Realign Spine and Wellness, especially from people who have not yet experienced working with a chiropractor. According to the Mayo Clinic, chiropractic adjustment is a safe option for treating pain through spinal manipulation. In fact, Doctors of Chiropractic have to go through 4,620 total educational hours to get their degrees. That's almost 1000 hours more than a Doctor of Physical Therapy and less than 200 hours than a Medical Doctor.

Chiropractic offers patients a safer, less risky way to treat injuries and pain using physical manipulation.

The word chiropractic, from the Greek, literally means “done by hand.” There is no cutting and no harsh chemicals used with chiropractic manipulation of the spine. Treatments simply involve one human applying hands to another’s body.
