  • They are half covered by our insurance because sometimes they can help. The electro stimulation of muscles and what not for sports injuries.

    I had some neck pain. They ask questions ( that sometimes doctors gloss over because they sometimes treat symptoms not the person). So chiro asks how I got here today (motorcycle), and what’s my exercise regime like (powerlifting). So while a doctor might prescribe pain meds and mri of neck, chiro suggests to me could be weight of motorcycle helmet during gear shifts, but also asked specifics about weight lifting sets and order. Then made a recommendation to change the order. They suggested that doing certain heavy lifts first fatigued all muscle groups involved, meaning smaller exercise after was struggling to work effectively with proper form. They suggested moving the small target exercise first till fatigue, then the larger exercise. Also did the muscle elctro impulse stuff.

    Neck pain did go away. Not sure which thing solved it though.
