FAQ

No matter where you are in your chiropractic experience, you may still have some questions about chiropractic care. We’ll go through 10 common questions we hear at Letzt Chiropractic.
There’s no better time than the present. Getting started now on a regular schedule of chiropractic care will enable you to feel and perform at your best.
Yes. In fact, chiropractic care can help with a variety of issues, including enhancing the immune response to helping with seasonal allergies. Chiropractic care is safe and gentle for children and has been shown to reduce the symptoms of nerve interference that can be related to ear infections, constipation, asthma, colic, among other conditions.
It depends on whether you’re visiting Letzt Chiropractic for relief, corrective, or wellness care. If you are seeking relief or corrective care, visits will be scheduled according to the severity of your condition and how long you have been suffering. Wellness care may be advised on a weekly, biweekly, or monthly basis depending upon the underlying health of your spine and your desired activity level.
Chiropractors correct subluxations, which are misalignments of the spine or extremities that can prevent your body from functioning at its optimal level. Subluxations can occur from the physical, mental, or chemical stressors that our body is exposed to on a daily basis.
Statistics show that the vast majority of us will suffer from neck or back pain at some point in our lives. It is at this time that the effects of not taking care of our spine can become very evident. At Letzt Chiropractic, we provide an integrated approach to caring for your spine, and we’re confident in making the right decisions for you, giving you the best care possible.
Our integrated approach including chiropractic care and rehabilitative procedures is remarkably safe and gentle. We target the ROOT-CAUSE of your issue and is a much safer and effective alternative as compared to the traditional medical route of anti-inflammatory pain medications, cortisone shots or surgical intervention. Many patients feel immediate relief following chiropractic treatment, but some may experience mild soreness, stiffness, or aching, just as they do after some forms of exercise.
A typical visit at Letzt Chiropractic will take 15-30 minutes, as Dr. Letzt adjusts your entire body from head to toe. Our sessions are un-rushed and comprehensive.
No. At Letzt Chiropractic, we’re in the business of getting you out of pain and back into your own life.
That’s perfectly fine as Dr. Letzt can use a gentle adjusting tool called an Activator to gently and effectively adjust your spine. It is a spring-loaded, hand-held tool where the pressure can be turned up or down depending on patient comfort. And if the Activator tool is still too forceful for you, Dr. Letzt specializes in an even gentler technique called Network Spinal Analysis(NSA). This involves gentle pressure to specific points along the spine to help the body release stored tension and improve nervous system function.

Doctors of chiropractic are educated as primary-contact healthcare providers, with an emphasis on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to the musculoskeletal system (the muscles, ligaments, and joints of the spine and extremities) and the nerves that supply them. Educational requirements for doctors of chiropractic are among the most stringent of any of the healthcare professions. The typical applicant for chiropractic college has already acquired nearly four years of pre-medical undergraduate college education, including courses in biology, inorganic and organic chemistry, physics, psychology, and related lab work.  

Once accepted into an accredited chiropractic college, the requirements become even more demanding — four to five academic years of professional study are the standard. Doctors of chiropractic are educated in orthopedics, neurology, physiology, human anatomy, clinical diagnosis including laboratory procedures, diagnostic imaging, exercise, nutrition rehabilitation, and more. 

In addition, Dr. Letzt attends seminars and additional training each year to constantly improve the care he is able to offer to his patients.
