Straight answers to the questions we hear most often at our Flagler Beach office. Flagler Chiropractic is at 1240 S. Oceanshore Blvd., Flagler Beach, FL — call (386) 439-9001.
Is chiropractic safe?
Chiropractic care is widely regarded as a safe, drug-free option for many musculoskeletal problems when performed by a licensed chiropractor after a proper exam. Mild soreness for a day is the most common side effect. We screen every patient and use gentle techniques when appropriate.
What is the popping sound?
The “pop” is a small release of gas within the joint fluid when the joint surfaces separate slightly — similar to cracking your knuckles. It is not bones cracking, and it is not required for an adjustment to work. See it in our videos.
How often will I need to come in?
It depends on your condition and goals. Acute problems may need more frequent visits at first, then taper as you improve. Some people choose periodic wellness visits.
Do I need a referral?
No referral is needed to see a chiropractor in Florida. Just call (386) 439-9001.
What techniques do you use?
Diversified, Gonstead, Activator, Palmer Package, S.O.T., cranial therapy, flexion/distraction, and more. See all services.
What should I bring?
Completed patient forms, photo ID and any insurance information.
