Melbourne CBD Chiropractors : FAQ
Like many other Melbourne CBD chiropractors, we hear many questions from new and current chiropractic patients. Here are some of the most common questions and answers...
What problems can Chiropractic help with?
Chiropractic may help with many health issues, as your spine, or nervous system, controls and co-ordinates all body functions. Chiropractic helps correct any misalignments (or subluxations) to allow your body to work better. Typically, the most common problems Melbourne CBD Chiropractors see are back pain, neck pain, back stiffness, headaches, migraines, posture problems and stress related problems. We find that more people are coming in for general health checks and spinal assessments.
How often will I need to come?
This will vary with each person, depending on how long you have had the problem, your previous health history, any trauma or accidents and many other factors. After the Doctor has done an assessment, he will be able to tell you how frequently you need to have care. It may be starting with 2 or 3 visits a week initially, or less frequently depending on the above factors.
How much will it cost?
The fees are outlined, but we do remain competitive as we do not want you to miss out on your health, just for a few dollars. You can speak to the Doctor if you need assistance here.
Will my health fund cover Chiropractic?
As a Melbourne CBD Chiropractor, Dr Zukerman is covered by all major health funds, but you will need to check with your health fund for your level of cover. If your health fund says we are not a “First Choice” provider, then please advise us, as we will explain and assist you here.
Is Chiropractic safe?
Melbourne CBD Chiropractors and elsewhere can all agree on this question. YES! Chiropractic has been around since 1895 and there are numerous scientific studies demonstrating the efficacy of chiropractic care. Many millions of people universally, have and continue to receive the benefits of chiropractic care.
I do not like the “cracking” noise, what other techniques can you do?
Chiropractic has a diversity of different techniques and Dr Zukerman is trained in many of these. We use gentle, safe adjustments and we can avoid the “cracking noise.” We cater for your individual needs and have gentle methods for your comfort.
