During one of my daily workouts, my lower back told me to STOP doing what I was doing. Ouch! Where to go to get fixed? After some internet searching, I found Mountain Park Chiropractic and was pretty impressed with my initial visit. Clean office, super friendly staff, and professional doc. We discussed my x-rays (got these done elsewhere, as MPC does not do x-rays) and I learned that yes, I'm out of alignment and the vertebrae in my neck are not in the "normal/optimal" slightly curved shape.
My sessions begin with a couple of treatments (heat application, electrical "pulsing" stimulation--my favorite!, or ultrasound therapy) then ends with the chiropractic adjustment (generally when the chiropractor manipulates the spine and other joints by using controlled force, leverage, direction, amplitude, and velocity). Adjustments occur while lying on the fancy chiropractic table; the table is like a massage table on crack: headrest, footrests, armrests, motor that moves the table up/down. One of the oddly satisfying aspects of adjustments, at least to me, is the "popping" sound after the spine/joints are manipulated. That popping sound is the result of the joints releasing gas.
When I called to schedule my initial visit, office staff offered to call my insurance company to confirm that it covers chiropractic care. Staff then called me back to say, yes, I'm good. I really appreciated that! In addition to chiropractic care, MPC offers massage therapy. I haven't tried a massage yet, but will probably do so soon.
If you have back, neck, shoulder, etc. issues, check out MPC. They're great!
