Things to Think About When Choosing a Chiropractor

[OneSpine Chiropractic & Physioth]

With the amount of people suffering from back pain increasing every year, so too does the number of chiropractors. Many people are not sure what to look out for when choosing a good chiropractor and we will give you some helpful advice when it comes to making the right decision for you. The first step to know how to choose a good chiropractor is to know if you need one in the first place. Chiropractors are trained to manipulate your spine to help the vertebrae sit well and for everything to be in the right position. It is normally the incorrect positioning of some bone, ligament or muscle that is causing your back pain problem and this is where a good chiropractor will be able to help and ease your suffering.

Many chiropractors will start with a discussion to determine your exact needs and to find out more about how they can help you let's start with a few simple ways to determine if your chiropractor is good:

Honesty
It's an old adage but you should look for honesty in a chiropractor. If your chiropractor is honest, they will recommend the best treatment with the fastest results. If they recommend that you take supplements, an honest chiropractor will recommend the cheapest place to buy them instead of offering their own supplements. Many not-so-honest chiropractors will offer the patient a package of a set number of sessions and treatment. This is a bad sign, especially if they have yet to see how you are responding to any treatment so far. If a package is offered before they have a chance to determine your problems, that's a definite bad sign. If the chiropractor realizes that they cannot help you and instead refer to another specialist, that's an honest approach and a definite good sign.

Reputation
If you hear about a chiropractor being recommended by a friend or family member, that's a good sign. The majority of good chiropractors don't have to advertise as they have built up an excellent reputation from their previous and current clients. This is the best sign that you have found a good chiropractor.

Chiropractic Techniques
Different chiropractors use different techniques so it is important to know what they specialize in before choosing to work with one.

The right treatment in the right place.
If you have a problem with a specific area of your back, then that is the area that should be treated. Be wary of a chiropractor that recommends that you have treatment in a part of your back that have no problems with. In this case, it's better to seek a second opinion.

Certified
This may seem like an obvious point but there are still many non-certified chiropractors out there. Ensure you use a chiropractor that is certified with the American Chiropractic Association.

Not afraid to refer to another specialist
While many chiropractors want to keep any clients they have, the reality is that they cannot treat all conditions. If your chiropractor identifies any underlying problem that is causing your back problem, you should then be referred to another specialist to deal with this. A chiropractor who tries to keep the client, even though the condition is not relevant to his area of expertise is not a good chiropractor.
