FAQ

What makes Gerlach Chiropractic different from other chiropractic clinics?

At Gerlach Chiropractic, we emphasize preventive care as much as pain relief. Our spinal and postural screenings help identify early misalignments before they become serious. We also offer advanced, non-invasive therapies—like StemWave—to support your body’s natural healing and long-term wellness.

 

Do I need a referral or medical records before coming in?

No referral is required to schedule an appointment with us. However, if you have previous imaging (like X-rays or MRIs) or medical records, bringing them can help our team assess your condition more thoroughly and develop a more tailored treatment plan.

 

Is chiropractic care safe for everyone?

Chiropractic care is generally safe for most people, but we always perform a detailed evaluation before starting treatment. If you have certain medical conditions—such as osteoporosis, spinal fractures, or a history of bone disease—we’ll adapt our approach to ensure your safety and comfort.

 

What conditions does Gerlach Chiropractic treat?

The practice provides care for a range of spine-related conditions, including back pain, neck pain, sciatica, disc injuries, scoliosis, headaches, and vertigo. They also support recovery from auto accident and workplace injuries.

What is spinal decompression therapy?

Is chiropractic care at Gerlach Chiropractic drug-free?
