Why Choose Chiropractic Care?

A 2020 study found that adults seeking treatment for spinal pain who visited both a Chiropractor and a physician were less likely to receive opioid prescriptions compared to those who only saw their physician. Another 2015 study concluded that patients reported a high level of satisfaction with the benefits of their Chiropractic care.

 

This is why 4.5 million Canadians visit Chiropractors each year. 

 

Here are a few reasons why Chiropractic care might be the right choice for you:

  1. Natural Healing: Chiropractic care emphasizes the body’s innate ability to heal itself by addressing the underlying cause of your symptoms rather than just masking them with medication.
  2. Pain Relief: It’s about combining evidence-based results with expertise to realign the spine and restore proper function to the nervous system. The result? Effective relief from a wide range of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint pain.
  3. Personalized Treatment: Chiropractic care is not a one-size-fits-all approach. We take the time to understand your unique needs and develop a customized treatment plan to address your specific concerns and goals.
  4. Preventative, Drug-Free, and Non-Invasive: This isn’t just about treating a condition; it’s also about staying ahead of the problem, focusing on interventions to prevent a problem from emerging in the first place. Instead of relying on medication or surgery, we use hands-on techniques to promote healing and wellness.
  5. Improved Function and Performance: Chiropractic care can help improve overall health and well-being by optimizing spinal alignment and nervous system function. After Chiropractic adjustments, patients experience improved physical performance, better posture, and increased energy levels.
  6. Whole-Person Approach: We don’t just address your physical symptoms; we consider factors such as nutrition, stress, and lifestyle habits to support your overall health.

 

Chiropractic care is for you, whether your care involves stability and rehabilitation, underlying mobility issues, strength development, or acute pain prevention and relief.

Common Questions We Get Asked About Chiropractic

How do I know if I need a Chiropractor?

You may need to visit a Chiropractor if you see these signs and symptoms:

  • Persistent pain in joints
  • Acute/chronic back or neck pain
  • Limited mobility
  • Frequent headaches or migraines
  • Recent injury due to an accident
  • Sports or work-related injuries
  • Postural issues or poor alignment
  • You want to focus on general wellness

If any of these signs resonate with you, it may be worth scheduling a consultation with a Chiropractor to discuss your concerns and explore your treatment options. Remember, Chiropractors are trained to assess your needs and develop personalized treatment plans to help you feel your best.

Will my insurance cover Chiropractic care?

Many insurance plans cover Chiropractic care to some extent. We recommend checking with your insurance provider to verify your coverage. Don’t worry too much about this; our staff will be happy to assist you with any insurance-related questions you may have.

We also offer our patients the option of direct billing for a variety of extended healthcare insurance companies for our Chiropractic, Physiotherapy, and Massage Therapy services.

We also offer Exercise Rehab Sessions, so you can participate in Personal Training and be billed through extended healthcare. Allow our Member Services team to do a complimentary benefits check for you during your first visit with us!

What are the common Chiropractic modalities we use?

Our Chiropractors are trained in a variety of modalities and may utilize them throughout your care.

These modalities include Acupuncture/Dry-Needling, Shockwave Therapy, Low-Level Laser Therapy (“Cold Laser Therapy”), Graston, and Exercise Rehab.

Please don’t hesitate to ask your Chiropractor if you have any questions about these modalities and/or if you would like them used more in any of your sessions at MYo Lab.

What makes MYo Lab different from other Chiropractic clinics?

At our clinic, we prioritize lumbopelvic integrity and core strength, focusing on a comprehensive, full-body approach to assessing and treating pain and injuries.

Unlike many clinics, we focus on one-on-one time with our Chiropractors to ensure you receive the highest-quality care tailored to your health needs.

How many Chiropractic sessions will I need?

This entirely depends on several factors, such as the severity of your condition, your overall health, and your treatment goals.

Our doctor will work with you to develop a treatment plan that meets your needs and fits your schedule.

Do Chiropractic treatments hurt?

Not at all! Chiropractic adjustments are generally painless. Sure, you may experience some pressure during the treatment and some mild discomfort or soreness afterward, similar to what you might feel after a workout.

This is especially true if you’re already dealing with pain in the region. Any discomfort is usually temporary and will resolve quickly.

What happens if I can’t get an appointment for my desired date/time slot?

That’s no problem! We have a super easy online booking process.

If you can’t find a date or time that works for you with one of our Chiropractors, you can view all our Chiropractors or add yourself to the waitlist.

If you need additional help, feel free to call us at (403)930-8686.

What do I wear to my Chiropractic appointment?

A lot of the time, this will depend on the kind of treatment you’re receiving.

For example, if you’re in for spinal subluxation, you may need to wear flexible clothing. But typically, here’s what you can wear:

  • Loose fitted clothing
  • Thin fabric
  • Leggings/yoga pants
  • Shorts/pants/Gym shorts
  • Comfortable shoes
  • Easy to remove layers
  • Minimal jewelry

Avoid bulky clothing, too many layers, and tight clothing, as these can be super restrictive. It’s also best to avoid dresses or skirts because you’ll be lying down, and you want to be comfortable.

Is Chiropractic care safe?

Absolutely! Chiropractic care is considered safe when performed by a licensed and trained Chiropractor (which we are!). Our team has undergone extensive education and training to ensure the safety and effectiveness of our treatments.

Can Chiropractic care help with stress and tension?

Yes, Chiropractic care can help reduce stress and tension by promoting relaxation, improving circulation, and restoring balance to the nervous system.

Many patients report feeling more relaxed and rejuvenated after a single Chiropractic adjustment.

Remember, don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions or concerns about Chiropractic care. We’re here to help!

Can I see a Chiropractor if I am pregnant?

Absolutely! Many pregnant individuals seek Chiropractic care to alleviate discomfort and promote overall well-being during pregnancy. Chiropractic adjustments can help address common issues such as back pain, pelvic pain, and sciatica that are very common as a result of pregnancy-related changes in posture and hormone levels.

Before beginning Chiropractic care, though, it’s a good idea to consult with your obstetrician or midwife to ensure that (keeping in mind your specific condition) it’s safe for you and your baby.

Chiropractic care can be a safe and effective way to support your health and well-being throughout pregnancy, helping you feel more comfortable and better able to enjoy this special time in your life.

Do you provide Pediatric Chiropractic care?

Yes, we offer Pediatric Chiropractic care for babies and children up to 12 years of age. Dr. Shelly Bouvier is passionate about providing personalised care and attention to meet the specific needs of your child. We want to make sure our little patients get the best possible treatment in a comfortable setting.
