Am I a candidate for chiropractic treatment?

The only way to know if you are a candidate for chiropractic treatment is by consulting with Dr. Michael Impaglia of OPtimum Chiropractic for a complete clinical assessment. If you are not a candidate for chiropractic care, or if you require medical treatment beyond the scope of chiropractic, you will be referred to the appropriate specialist or practitioner.

What should I expect at my chiropractic appointment with Dr. Michael Impaglia of Optimum Chiropractic?

Like any doctor visit, you will be asked to complete paperwork about your medical history and reason for visiting the chiropractor. You may be treated to massage or electronic muscle stimulation to help your body prepare for a chiropractic adjustment. The purpose of the adjustment is to manipulate the spine, neck, and other areas of the musculoskeletal frame into an optimal position. You will hear a lot of loud popping and cracking during your visit, but you may experience greater mobility and less pain immediately after.

Will I need to follow any special instructions after my appointment with Dr. Michael Impaglia of Optimum Chiropractic?

Dr. Michael Impaglia of Optimum Chiropractic may advise you to adopt healthier habits. For example, he or she may suggest using a back support for desk work to support a healthier posture. Other recommendations may include wearing better foot support, minimizing stress, and changing your normal sleep position.
