Best chiropractic Care in Phoenix, AZ

Golf, hiking and pickleball

Twisting sports can flare up an aching back. Ask for an assessment of how you move as well as where it hurts. A chiropractor may suggest exercises or a change in technique. If a sudden movement caused sharp pain, or if your leg feels weak or numb, see a doctor before you return to your sport.

Arthritis and older spines

Arthritis, osteoporosis and spinal surgery all change what is suitable. Tell your chiropractor about them, and ask if you need imaging or a medical opinion first. Ask about lower-force techniques. A bigger adjustment is not necessarily a better one, and you should feel able to say no.

Arizona's chiropractic board

The Arizona State Board of Chiropractic Examiners licenses chiropractors and handles complaints. Look up whoever will be treating you. Ask whether massage, physical therapy or acupuncture in the office are provided by someone with the proper license, and how each is billed.

Staying active in the heat

The summer heat can stop people from walking or exercising for months, which can leave backs stiffer. Ask for an indoor plan. The CDC estimates that 22.9% of adults in Phoenix report no leisure-time physical activity, so you may need to be deliberate about staying active. A short daily routine is easier to keep than a long one.

Choosing a doctor after a work injury

Warehouse, landscaping and construction workers often ask whether they can go directly to a chiropractor. The Industrial Commission of Arizona's claims division explains that an employer may have you seen by a doctor of its choosing one time. After that, you may report to a physician of your choice. If you return to the employer's doctor a second time, that doctor becomes your attending physician, and changes later on need approval.

Do this carefully, because switching without approval can leave bills unpaid. Check with your claims adjuster that a chiropractor's care would be covered before you start a series of visits.

When summer changes your routine

Summer pushes walking and golf indoors, or before dawn. Back pain can return when you stop moving, so ask for a routine that works in a small indoor space. Before a long drive north to escape the heat, plan a stop every hour or two to walk. Winter visitors should also have their plan written down, so that a provider at home can pick up the thread.
