For New and Prospective Patients . . . About Chiropractic and What to Expect Chiropractic Myths and Fears For those who have never had a chiropractic treatment, there are some common myths and fears that are prevalent that we would like to address. “Cracking” Bones A chiropractor does not “crack” your bones. The doctor does adjust your spine, neck and other bones and joints with gentle pressure. The sound you sometimes hear during an adjustment is simply carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen being released from congested areas. Loosening Bones Chiropractic does not “loosen” your bones. It simply puts your spine, neck and other bones and joints back into proper alignment. X-Rays Do We Use an Activator – also known as “That Clicker Thing”? The answer is yes. The doctor will use an activator when the patient has a condition that will not allow them to be adjusted by hand. A classic example of this is severe osteoporosis or thinning of the bone. Some patients are fearful of adjustments and we will also use the activator to adjust them. Insurance Our Denver Chiropractic office accepts all insurance plans. We are also a preferred provider for all Colorado HMOs and PPOs. We will be happy to verify your benefits for you. How Many Adjustments Will I Need? How Long Will It Take To Feel Better?
