5 Signs You May Need Chiropractic Care Consultation

Jul 15, 2021

A lot of the aches and pains that we experience in daily life can be solved with Chiropractic care. If you haven’t visited a Chiropractor yet, here are some signals that it may be time to pay a visit.

1. Daily Troubles

You are having trouble with your daily activities: getting dressed, preparing meals, taking care of children, shopping, getting through your workday without pain, exercise and sports are limited. 

2. Medication Avoidance

3. Prolonged Pain

You might need to visit a chiropractic professional if you’ve had pain for longer than 3 weeks without seeing improvement in symptoms.

4. Usual Remedies No Longer Work

Your pain is not responding to more conservative treatments like over-the-counter medications, hot packs, or topical pain relievers.

5. Unusual Bodily Changes

You have increased pain at night, unexplained weight loss, changes in bowel/bladder function related to your back pain, visual disturbances, trouble speaking/swallowing, neck stiffness with a fever, progressive weakness, saddle paresthesias. If you have any of the above symptoms you should see your healthcare provider immediately. These are red flags and suggest a serious condition.
