A chiropractic adjustment is the art of using a specific force in a precise direction, applied to a joint that is subluxated, "locked up," or not moving properly. The purpose of this safe and natural procedure is to eliminate interference to the nervous system, improving spinal function and overall health. The end result to any adjustment or series of adjustments is a corrected area of the body and an end to the pain.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can my children benefit from chiropractic care?

A: Yes! Children have problems just like adults do. With the amount of books children carry nowadays, making their backpacks weigh more than they do, the risk of scoliosis has risen dramatically. Dr. Cohen has helped countless children who have been in car accidents, chronic ear infections, digestive problems, asthma and so much more. The average child by the age of 5 has suffered over a thousand traumas. If these everyday traumas such as falling off a bike, sliding into first base and learning to walk go untreated they can lead to diminished function of vital organs and mobility. This is not only something that Dr. Cohen lives and believes, he has been adjusting his own son since he was 2 days old.

Doc Cohen Answers Your Questions

Q: My Back doesn't hurt, do I still need a chiropractor?

A: You probably do. The reason is that chiropractic is not just for people that have bad backs. We can help even the simplest of symptoms by strengthening the Adrenal Glands (or better known as Stress Glands) with regular adjustments and natural supplements. Weak Adrenal Glands can cause the following symptoms:

• poor endurance

• Weakness/ fatigue/ low energy

• "wiped out" during or after stress or exercise

• tend to be allergic / sensitive to odors

• need to eat regularly (hypoglycemia)

• aches, pains and stiffness

• tendency to get - bursitis, tendonitis, or arthritis

• recurrent infection / sore throat

• lightheadedness / low blood pressure

Q: Does a chiropractic treatment hurt?

A: Most people who have been to a chiropractor are used to being twisted, cracked and turned. This can be both uncomfortable and a little invasive and we do NOT use these methods unless specifically requested. Dr. Cohen uses a method called Activator. which has been consistently rated the most gentle form of chiropractic and is safe for all ages from infants to elderly. He has even been known to treat his family's 18 year old poodle Tiffany!

WHY CHIROPRACTIC

Ten Myth's about Chiropractic Medicine

1. "Chiropractors aren't REAL doctors; they're just quacks."To graduate with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree, one is required to complete 4 years of college education and 4 years of post gradulate studies, including over 4,500 classroom hours of health-specific sciences (more than the average medical school curriculum).Doctors of Chiropractic are the most educated general physicians in the areas of anatomy, physiology nutrition, and neurology. Upon graduation they, like other doctors, must pass rigorous National Board Examinations and demanding state testing before being granted the privilege to practice. In addition, our doctors attend postgraduate seminars to stay current on the latest scientific research and to learn new methods of treatment.2. "It HURTS."Like lifting a heavy rock off your toe, most patients report their chiropractic adjustments actually feel good! Although our Dr. Cohen utilize the most gentle, modern techniques available, any time there is inflammation there may also be slight tenderness. Be reassured that we do everything possible to minimize any patient discomfort. 3. "My insurance doesn't cover chiropractic" or "It costs too much."Over 200 insurance companies that cover chiropractic care are currently in our computer. Please call the office to discuss specific details such as type of coverage, deductibles, and limitations. For those with no insurance, flexible payments (as well as major credit cards & personal checks) make our reasonable fees even more affordable. 4. "Once you start you have to go for the rest of your life."The GOOD NEWS is that in our office, you will come in for the FEWEST visits necessary to correct the problem. We use sophisticated techniques so your body tells us how much care you need and how often. Some confuse maintenance care with the care that is required in correcting a problem. The treatment seems similar, however, maintenance care is optional and usually not covered by insurance.Our patients are always given the options and consequences to make their own decision on what care they desire.Once patients experience the value of chiropractic, many choose to continue.5. "You have to take your clothes off for the doctor."Any examination we perform is done with the patient fully clothed. AT NO TIME will you have to disrobe for the doctor. If x-rays are necessary, we provide comfortable cotton gowns to wear.6. "I'm too old (or young) for Chiropractic to help."Significant spinal trauma can occur at ANY age, and especially during the birth process. Naturally, chiropractic adjusting procedures are modified for the specific person's condition and age. Chiropractic has been shown to be helpful with most 'normal' childhood health problems including scoliosis, and is effective in reducing many causes of arthritis!7. "The doctor might break my neck or hurt something!"Chiropractic care has an excellent safety record, safer than back surgery, muscle relaxers, and even aspirin. In addition, only the most advanced techniques are used in our clinic to ensure the fastest healing in the safest manner. Incidentally, you won't get to hear any 'cracking' or 'popping' noises with our treatments.8. "Chiropractors are for bad backs."Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your body is self-healing. All body functions are controlled by the brain, spinal cord and the nerves of your body. If the cause of your condition is due to an irritation or pressure on a nerve, chiropractors are the ONLY doctors trained to remove this pressure. Since the problem commonly occurs in the spine, chiropractic physicians have often been mistaken as 'back doctors'.9. "My friend had this bad experience with a chiropractor. . ."There is no denying that every profession has bad apples. For this reason we offer consultations for you to interview the doctor and evaluate your condition AT THE DOCTOR'S EXPENSE. If the doctor does find he or she may be able to help, we promise you will be absolutely delighted with our outstanding level of service to you? NO EXCEPTIONS. 10. "It takes weeks to get appointment then, like any doctor's office, you wait for hours to see the doctor."We recognize that emergencies are never planned, so we reserve time for new patients and emergency care every day. In addition, we provide 24 hour emergency phone numbers so you can contact our doctors any time, day or night. With our "No Wait" policy, if you have a scheduled appointment, you may never find out what great health magazines & games our reception room has to offer. If you are considering chiropractic care, we know you'll have lot of questions. For your convenience, we would like to take the time to answer the most commonly asked questions below. If you have a specific question you would like to ask the Dr, please email Dr. Eric Cohen at doc_doccohen.com.

Have your recently seen the Excedrin commercial stating that along with the food and drug administration they are working to help the public understand that there product also works on migraine headaches? To help us better understand and purchase this, they have developed a second packaging label for Excedrin called Excedrin Migraine, and with the contents being the same as the original formula. The product is no different but the packaging suggests that the purchasing of Excedrin for headaches, and Excedrin Migraine for migraine headaches. Is it really our best interests they have in mind or are they trying to increase product sales? Bernie Seigel, MD studied “exceptional” patients to learn the qualities they possessed that lead them to recovery and health: “They educated themselves and become specialists in their care. They question the doctor because they want to understand their care and participate in it.” As chiropractors we follow the premise that to best benefit from your care, you must participate and understand it. Doctors do not heal or cure. Chiropractors improve your own natural healing abilities by allowing your innate intelligence to better express itself. We never interfere in your bodies amazing process with drugs or surgery, rather we remove the interference to your nervous system that’s not allowing your inner doctor to work and heal properly.
