❓ Frequently Asked Questions

GENERAL QUESTIONS

Q: What conditions do you treat at Live Well Chiropractic?
We treat a wide range of conditions including back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches, vertigo, scoliosis, shoulder injuries, pregnancy-related discomfort, and pediatric alignment issues. We also offer wellness-focused care to improve posture, mobility, and overall health.

Q: Is chiropractic care safe?
Yes. Chiropractic care is a safe, drug-free, and non-invasive approach to pain relief and wellness. We tailor each treatment to your specific needs using gentle, evidence-based techniques.

Q: Do you accept insurance?
Yes, we work with many major insurance providers. Our team will help verify your benefits and explain your coverage options. We also offer affordable cash plans for those without insurance.

FIRST VISIT

Q: What should I expect on my first visit?
Your first visit includes a consultation, health history review, spinal evaluation, and—if appropriate—your first adjustment. We’ll take the time to understand your needs and create a personalized care plan.

Q: Do I need X-rays?
Not always. X-rays are only recommended when medically necessary. We make that decision after a thorough physical and postural assessment.

TREATMENT & RESULTS

Q: How long will it take to feel better?
Results vary depending on the condition and how long it's been present. Many patients experience relief after just a few sessions, while chronic issues may require ongoing care. We’ll regularly assess your progress and adjust your care plan accordingly.

Q: Will I need to keep coming forever?
No. Our goal is to relieve your pain and give you tools to maintain your health. Some patients choose ongoing wellness care to stay aligned and prevent future problems, but that’s always your choice.

Q: Are adjustments painful?
Not at all. Most patients feel immediate relief or relaxation after an adjustment. Our techniques are safe and gentle—tailored to your age, body type, and condition.

SPECIALIZED CARE

Q: Do you treat children?
Yes! We provide gentle, pediatric-specific chiropractic care for infants, children, and teens. From birth to growth spurts, we help support your child’s spinal health and development.

Q: Can I get adjusted during pregnancy?
Absolutely. We offer safe, pregnancy-focused chiropractic care to relieve back pain, support pelvic alignment, and prepare your body for a smoother delivery.

Q: What if my vertigo or headache is from something more serious?
We always begin with a thorough assessment. If we believe your symptoms require additional diagnostics or specialist care, we’ll refer you to a trusted provider.

ALASKA-SPECIFIC CONCERNS

Q: Can chiropractic care help with work or outdoor-related injuries?
Yes. Many Alaskans experience spinal misalignments from lifting, falls, icy conditions, or repetitive stress. We’re experienced in treating these types of injuries and getting you back to work and the wild.

Q: Do you help with injuries from auto or moose accidents?
We do. Whether it’s whiplash, lower back trauma, or ongoing pain after a collision, our care can help restore alignment and reduce nerve pressure.
