Chiropractic Services
Looking for a Chiropractor in North Edmonton? Our Chiropractors are highly-trained in assessing and treating the spine, muscles, joints, and nervous system. They assess, diagnose, and treat most musculoskeletal conditions. Chiros use chiropractic adjustments and other related hands-on therapies to support the body’s musculoskeletal system and associated neurological functions. They promote general health and support preventative care. Your chiropractor may use other techniques to compliment your treatment such as Graston, Active Release, needling, joint mobilization, and joint manipulation (a high velocity, low amplitude “thrust” technique used to release hypo-mobile joints).

Is Chiropractic Treatment Safe?
Chiropractic care is widely recognized as one of the safest and non-invasive forms of health care available for the treatment of neuromusculoskeletal complaints. The risks associated with chiropractic services, however, are very small. Many patients feel immediate relief following chiropractic treatments. Some may experience mild soreness, stiffness or aching, similar to the feeling following some forms of exercise. Your chiropractor will always review any risks with you before proceeding. Our chiropractors ensure all your questions are answered and you feel completely comfortable and safe during your whole appointment.
Do I Need a Physician Referral to See a Chiropractor?
No, Chiropractors are primary care providers, thus you do not need a physician referral to see a Chiropractor. However, physician referrals are always welcome. Although, be aware that some extended health care plans require a physician referral in order to provide coverage for your visits, so it is a good idea to check your insurance plan and find out if a referral is required on their end.
Do Insurance Plans Cover Chiropractic Treatments?
Chiropractic care is covered extensively by insurance. Including employee health benefit plans, the federal public service, worker’s compensation board, the automobile insurance industry, extended healthcare benefits, the RCMP, Canadian Forces, and Veteran’s Affairs Canada. Each individual plan is different so check your health plan to determine the coverage available to you for chiropractic care.
How Often Will I Need An Adjustment?
Chiropractic care is a process, not a single event. Treatment for each person is determined based on their individual needs and diagnosis. Some patients feel better after one treatment, but most people require a structured treatment plan to resolve their issues. Your chiropractor will review the plan with you on your first visit.
Do Adjustments Hurt?
Chiropractic manipulation is a highly controlled procedure that rarely causes discomfort because minimal force and gentle pressure are used. Most patients feel relief immediately following treatment. Any reported soreness after an initial adjustment has been described as similar to that associated with starting a new exercise program. Drinking plenty of water, using an ice pack, and engaging in light stretching after your first visit can help ease any discomfort and promote healing.
