Question 1

Is chiropractic treatment safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes, when performed by a trained professional. At Squak Mountain Chiropractic & Rehab Dr. Joel performs a thorough examination and history to make sure chiropractic care is suitable for your condition. In some cases, chiropractic care is not recommended. In that case we work with the patient to find a suitable alternative for their needs.

Question 2

Does chiropractic treatment hurt?

Accepted Answer

Chiropractic treatment should not be painful. However, general soreness from your treatments is common and should be expected especially in the beginning stages of your treatment plan.

Question 3

How long do appointments usually last?

Accepted Answer

Appointments generally last between 30 minutes to one hour.

Question 4

Do I need a referral from a doctor to see a chiropractor?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, no referral is needed to see a chiropractor. In Washington State, chiropractors can be primary care physicians and therefore patients can schedule appointments without the need of a referral.

Question 5

What can I expect during my first visit?

Accepted Answer

During your first visit, you can expect a thorough history and examination to be performed. This helps to provide crucial information that is used in helping to determine your current condition and the cause of said condition. As long as chiropractic care is determined to be a good option for your condition, you can also expect your first chiropractic adjustment as well as initial exercises.

Question 6

What is the process for determining which treatment is right for me?

Accepted Answer

During your initial appointment, treatment recommendations are formulated based on the information gathered through the thorough history and objective examination. Important to note, chiropractic care is a conservative form of healthcare and people can respond differently to the same treatments. That is why Dr. Joel closely monitors your progress after each treatment. If you are not responding the way he believes you should, it may be recommended to try a different treatment option in the hopes of achieving better results. Dr. Joel will work hard to help you reach your goals and will modify his treatment plans if it is warranted.

Question 7

Do you accept same-day appointments or walk-ins?

Accepted Answer

YES! We accept both same day appointments and walk-in appointments. We also offer on-line booking as a convenience to our patients.

Question 8

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Accepted Answer

Be sure to complete our online intake forms prior to your first appointment. This will allow us to get started right when you come into the clinic. Otherwise, be sure to wear suitable athletic clothing.
