Frequently Asked Questions

At Elevate Chiropractic, we know you may have questions about chiropractic care, what to expect, and how it can help you. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common questions from our patients.

What is chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care is a natural, non-invasive approach to health that focuses on the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system. Chiropractors use gentle adjustments and complementary therapies to restore alignment, improve mobility, reduce pain, and support your body’s ability to heal itself.

Is chiropractic care safe?

Yes. Chiropractic care is widely recognized as one of the safest drug-free, non-invasive therapies for musculoskeletal issues. At Elevate Chiropractic, Dr. Brett Wee tailors every treatment to your individual needs and comfort level.

What conditions do chiropractors treat?

Chiropractic care can help with a wide range of issues, including:

  • Back and neck pain

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Whiplash and auto accident injuries

  • Sciatica and nerve pain

  • Sports and work-related injuries

  • Joint pain and stiffness

  • Postural imbalances

Do adjustments hurt?

Chiropractic adjustments are generally not painful. You may hear a popping or cracking sound during the adjustment, which is simply gas being released from the joints. Most patients feel relief, greater mobility, or reduced tension right away.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions depends on your condition, lifestyle, and goals. Some patients feel relief after just a few visits, while others with chronic or complex issues may benefit from a longer care plan. Dr. Wee will create a personalized treatment schedule designed for your recovery and long-term health.

Can chiropractic care help even if I’m not in pain?

Yes. Many people visit chiropractors for wellness care, not just pain relief. Regular adjustments and supportive therapies help maintain spinal health, prevent injuries, improve posture, and support overall wellness.

Do I need a referral from a doctor?

No referral is required to see a chiropractor. You can book an appointment directly at Elevate Chiropractic.

Is chiropractic care covered by insurance?

Many extended health insurance plans cover chiropractic care. Coverage varies, so it’s best to check with your provider. Our team can help guide you through your options.

Can children and seniors see a chiropractor?

Yes. Chiropractic care is safe and effective for patients of all ages, from newborns to seniors. Treatments are always adapted to suit the needs, size, and condition of the patient.

What should I expect at my first visit?

Your first visit includes a consultation, health history review, and a physical assessment. If appropriate, Dr. Wee will perform your first adjustment and may recommend additional therapies such as stretching, strengthening, or soft tissue techniques. You’ll leave with a personalized care plan designed just for you.
