How can I find out if chiropractic care can help me?
Derry Chiropractic offers consultations where you can meet the doctor and discuss your health goals.

How soon can I get an appointment?

Will it hurt?
Our patients find chiropractic to be an enjoyable experience. The doctor will inform you of any potentially tender movements according to your condition or injury, if applicable.

Will my insurance cover chiropractic?
Most insurance will cover chiropractic care. During your consultation, your insurance will be verified and any necessary referrals or preauthorizations will be identified.

Will chiropractic interfere with my physical therapy or medication?
No, in fact, chiropractic should make your physical therapy or medication even more effective.

Is chiropractic care safe?
Yes, recent studies indicate modern chiropractic care is safer than taking aspirin! More then 2 million Americans become seriously ill every year from reactions to drugs that were correctly prescribed and taken: 16,000 Americans die annually from those side effects. Chiropractic is very safe and effective.

Are chiropractic treatments any better then going to medical doctors?
Studies have shown that chiropractic treatments not only match the medical alternatives for treating such diverse conditions as back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, cervicogenic, migraine and tension type headaches, dysmenorrhea, premenstrual syndrome, infantile colic, enuresis, and even ear infections. The treatments are also effective for longer durations after treatment and without the common injurious or even fatal side effects of medication.

My medical doctor doesn't believe in chiropractic or think it's worthwhile.
That's okay, it's not a religion. Some medical doctors are not aware of the vast amount of research that has recently been done concerning chiropractic. On a side note, only 15% of medical procedures have been reported to be validated by any scientific data.

Can chiropractic help with chronic problems or old injuries?
YES! A study published in the Journal of Orthopedic Medicine stated that chiropractic is the only proven effective treatment in chronic whiplash cases.
