Vert Chiropractic is focused on making the connection from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body as free from interference as possible. Ages range from one-day-old babies to the elderly who have been subjected to wear and tear throughout their lives. -
Vert Chiropractic corrects your problem without causing damage. Videos of chiropractic adjustments have become popular, and while these adjustments can be helpful if applied correctly, Vert believes that a more gentle approach is needed in providing effective treatment. We believe a soft, specific approach has the patient feeling better in a shorter amount of time. We take the twisting and turning out of the body, using a prone specific technique that allows the vertebra to return to its correct position. We also utilize therapies that are designed to be relaxing and provide relief from the symptoms the patient may be experiencing. This makes for a comfortable, pain free experience from the moment you enter to the moment you leave.

A typical initial visit will take around 30-45 minutes, and may include x-rays if necessary. Each subsequent visit afterwards will typically last only 10-15 minutes. Our care is designed to be quick and efficient, so you can get back to the rest of your life, with minimal time spent in our waiting room.

Getting a chiropractic adjustment does not hurt. Depending on the reason for adjusting, you may feel a tiny bit of soreness afterward; however, our team at Vert goes above and beyond to make sure you are completely comfortable throughout the entire adjustment process.

Working with a chiropractor can ensure that you are getting a full treatment plan that is tailored specifically for you rather than simply medicating a problem until it hopefully goes away. Our team is equipped to pinpoint the problem at hand and help get you back to living your life to the fullest. Of course, there are certain health conditions that necessitate treatment from an MD, and we will always make that recommendation first where appropriate.

At Vert, our procedures and techniques are designed to focus on healing your body from the inside out, as quickly and efficiently as possible. Treatment duration is dependent on the type of injury or misalignment, and will range anywhere from 3-28 visits. After your more urgent care is complete, we then suggest quick wellness visits every three to four months so we can check and ensure your body is working in perfect alignment, similar to getting your teeth cleaned.

Not at all! Our team is gentle with all patients no matter their age. Part of your customized treatment plan is ensuring that you are safely getting the most out of your visits, no matter your age. Our team has helped patients of all ages, from newborns to the elderly.

No matter your issues, it is important to see a chiropractor to make sure there isn’t a larger underlying problem. Our team does not automatically seek to set up a patient for long-term care; we want to fix the underlying problem. Once the patient is better, we will release the patient and see the person on an as-needed basis. Our main goal is to help you feel your best even if you may think your issues are minimal.

Our services range in pricing; however, we do accept most insurance. To learn more about pricing, give us a call. We would love to walk you through our affordable treatment bundles.

In short, no. We don't focus on the cracks, but rather the realignment of the joint and the noninvasive treatments needed to get there. We will not twist, jerk or slam the body, simply because we don’t believe that it's an effective form of care.
