Your Family is Our Family

Chiropractic care has been shown to decrease the overall costs in medical expenses for individuals and families. Although chiropractors normally recommend more frequent visits in the beginning of your course of treatment, families who participate in regular chiropractic care save on health care. Individuals who utilize chiropractic care on a regular basis are less likely to spend money or use their health insurance on hospital and emergency room visits, prescription medication, surgeries, or other crises. At Trochim Chiropractic you will find that we do everything in our power to make sure you receive affordable care. We participate with several insurance companies and will even check your benefits for you in our office. We offer many payment options and work with you in order to make sure you can get the care you need for an amount you can afford.

The best way to think of chiropractic is a lifestyle change in which you are being proactive with your health and taking it into your own hands. Chiropractic care can be very quick or even instant depending on the certain condition. However, long term chiropractic care is how you can prevent problems from arising in the first place. Symptoms are usually the last thing to show up and the first thing to go away once we’ve stated care. This means that problems are often present in the absence of symptoms. The only way to know how long your particular condition may need attention is to come in and talk with the doctor.

Using chiropractic for pain relief only is like robbing a bank and only stealing the pens!

Since a chiropractic adjustment is a specific force, applied in a specific direction, to a specific spinal joint, it is virtually impossible to adjust oneself. It is possible to turn or bend or twist in certain ways to create “popping” sounds, like the sound that sometimes accompanies a chiropractic adjustment. Unfortunately, this type of joint manipulation is usually counterproductive, often making an already unstable area of the spine even more unsteady. Adjusting the spine is for professionals! The best way to enjoy the healthful benefits of chiropractic is to receive adjustments from a Doctor of Chiropractic. Even your doctor must seek out the services of another colleague to help restore and maintain proper spinal function.

People with musculoskeletal conditions are perfect candidates for chiropractic care but that’s not all chiropractors treat. Chiropractic care is very conservative and yields very low risk as opposed to more invasive procedures such as prescription medications and surgery. It is only sensible to start with the most conservative care and move towards more invasive procedures once the conservative method is proven ineffective. Also, chiropractors are trained to identify conditions that may warrant other, more invasive methods of treatment and will be able to make a referral if it is necessary ensuring you get the care you need when and where you need it. At our clinic we treat a variety of musculoskeletal conditions as well as visceral disorders. Some of these conditions include:

Low back pain, sciatica, herniated discs, restless leg syndrome, foot and ankle pain, knee pain, hip pain, mid back pain, rib pain, shoulder pain, elbow pain (tennis elbow), hand and wrist pain (carpal tunnel syndrome), neck pain, headaches, vertigo, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, sinus problems, allergies, ear infections (otitis media), nocturnal enuresis (bed wetting), care of infants and pregnant women, colicky infants just to name a few. Other visceral disorders such as digestive health and heart and lungs have seen amazing results with chiropractic care due to an optimally functioning nervous system. Trochim Family Chiropractic is also the perfect place for instances such as car accidents, work place injuries, and athletes.
