This is difficult to answer because everyone is different, and even the two same conditions in two different people may have different components leading to the manifestation of the symptoms. This is something that is discussed on a case by case basis following examination.

What should I expect on my first visit?

The first visit is approximately one hour long. A discussion of health concerns, followed by a thorough examination utilizing non-radiological methods  in conjunction with muscle testing, and bio-energetic analysis.

Is the expense of seeking a natural practitioner worth it?

Studies performed analyzing the health care costs of those who see complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) practitioner’s as their primary care physician (PCP) compared to those who utilized conventional medicine PCP’s spent less money on average on health care.

How does chiropractic college compare to medical school?

The training and education endured by chiropractic college graduates is extremely thorough and demanding, similar to that of medical doctors with the exception of pharmacology and surgery.

Prior to entering chiropractic college, the aspiring doctor requires 2-4 years (depending on the college attended and the state one wishes to practice in) of premed undergraduate studies. Once completed, the student must next complete 4-5 academic years of studies at a chiropractic college. This includes extensive training in anatomy, physiology, pathology, neurology, radiology, differential diagnosis, chiropractic adjusting techniques, biomechanics , and other health-related studies.

In addition, prior to graduation each student must successfully complete several hundred clinical hours of “real” patient management in a clinical setting under professional supervision. Most chiropractic colleges also require students to partake in clinical externship programs which place them in actual chiropractic offices, further enhancing their clinical practice skills.

Near or soon after graduation, the new doctors of chiropractic must successfully complete rigorous National and State Board examinations prior to obtaining a license to practice chiropractic. Once licensed, most states require that chiropractors receive annual continuing education to ensure that a high level of competency is maintained.

The following is a comparison of hours between medical school and chiropractic school graduates. You may be surprised to learn that chiropractic trained doctors receive more class and study time in many important subjects compared with their medical counterparts.
