Doctor of Chiropractic

Dr. Jason Crist’s journey into chiropractic began as a teenager when a bodybuilding injury threatened to require back surgery. Seeking a non-invasive alternative, he discovered chiropractic care, which not only healed him completely but also ignited a lifelong passion for natural, holistic health solutions. This transformative experience led him to Northwestern College of Chiropractic, where he earned both his Bachelor of Science and Doctorate of Chiropractic.

What Are Chiropractic Adjustments?

Chiropractors are trained professionals specializing in the body’s joints and soft tissues. Using techniques like joint manipulation, soft-tissue therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and nutrition guidance, we address your unique condition to reduce pain and enhance function without relying on medications or surgery.

Why Choose Chiropractic Care?

Unlike treatments that mask symptoms, chiropractic care targets the root cause of discomfort to prevent re-injury. Our approach combines spinal manipulation, exercise, and holistic methods to strengthen your body, improve posture, and support natural healing.

What to Expect at Your Visit

Your first visit, lasting about an hour, includes a thorough case history, spinal alignment assessment, X-rays (if needed), and tests for posture, flexibility, and muscle strength. Follow-up visits typically take 30 minutes, with a personalized plan tailored to your needs.

Conditions We Treat

We address a wide range of issues, including:

Back pain and Neck pain

Back and neck pain are among the most common reasons patients seek chiropractic care. These issues often result from spinal misalignment, poor posture, or disc-related problems that place pressure on nerves and muscles.

Sciatica and Disc herniation

Sciatica causes sharp, radiating pain from the lower back down the leg due to nerve irritation. Disc herniations often contribute to this by compressing spinal nerves, and chiropractic decompression can help relieve that pressure naturally.

Shoulder pain

Shoulder pain can occur when joints are restricted, muscles are imbalanced, or nerves are irritated in the neck or upper back. Chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue therapies help restore mobility, reduce inflammation, and ease discomfort.

Sprains/strains

Sprains affect ligaments, while strains involve muscles or tendons. Both conditions cause pain, stiffness, and limited motion, and early chiropractic treatment can speed healing and prevent chronic weakness.

Whiplash and Overuse injuries

Whiplash is a sudden neck injury often caused by car accidents that leads to pain, headaches, and stiffness. Overuse injuries develop gradually from repetitive motion or poor posture and typically respond well to targeted chiropractic care.

Headaches and Poor posture

Tension headaches often begin with tight neck and upper back muscles caused by slouching or prolonged screen time. Correcting posture and spinal alignment helps reduce nerve tension and improve circulation, relieving pain naturally.

Impaired sleep and Stress

Chronic pain and stress can interfere with the body’s ability to rest and recover. Chiropractic adjustments calm the nervous system, reduce muscle tension, and help restore deep, restorative sleep.

Our treatments, such as chiropractic adjustments, soft-tissue therapy, and customized exercises, aim to reduce joint pressure, inflammation, and pain while improving mobility and overall wellness.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a chiropractic adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment is a gentle, controlled movement applied to specific joints in the spine or extremities. The goal is to restore proper alignment, improve function, and relieve pain caused by nerve or joint irritation.

2. Are chiropractic adjustments safe?

Yes. Chiropractic adjustments are very safe when performed by a licensed and experienced chiropractor. At Crist Chiropractic, each adjustment is tailored to your individual condition to ensure comfort and safety.

3. What conditions can chiropractic adjustments help with?

Adjustments can help with back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, poor posture, and many joint-related issues. They also support better mobility, posture, and nervous system function.

4. What does an adjustment feel like?

Most patients feel immediate relief or a sense of lightness after an adjustment. You may hear a “popping” sound, which is simply gas being released from the joint, not bones cracking.

5. How many adjustments will I need?

The number of adjustments depends on your condition, health goals, and how your body responds. Many patients start with a short series of visits to correct the issue and then transition to maintenance care.

6. Can chiropractic adjustments help prevent future pain?

Yes. Regular adjustments help maintain proper spinal alignment, reduce stress on muscles and nerves, and promote long-term spinal health to prevent recurring pain or injury.

7. Do chiropractic adjustments hurt?

Most patients find adjustments relaxing and comfortable. Occasionally, there may be mild soreness afterward, similar to post-workout muscle fatigue, which fades within a day or two.
