A chiropractic adjustment is a controlled movement applied to a joint to help address restricted movement and improve joint function.
Depending on your condition, comfort level and clinical needs, different techniques may be appropriate.
Before treatment, Dr. Hagner will explain what he recommends and why. If you have questions or concerns about a particular technique, you're encouraged to discuss them with him.
Being comfortable with your treatment plan is an important part of your care.
There isn't one chiropractic treatment plan that's right for everyone.
A person who develops neck pain after spending hours at a computer may have very different needs from someone recovering from an auto accident, experiencing sciatica, or trying to stay active as they get older.
That's why care at Balanced Body Chiropractic begins with understanding you.
Dr. Hagner considers your symptoms, health history, daily activities and goals along with his examination findings. From there, he can determine whether chiropractic care is appropriate and recommend an individualized approach.
Throughout your care, your progress can be evaluated and recommendations adjusted based on how you're responding.

Chiropractic care focuses primarily on the musculoskeletal system—the joints, muscles and other structures that allow your body to move.
When joints aren't moving comfortably or muscles and surrounding tissues become irritated, everyday activities can become difficult. Sitting at work, turning your head while driving, bending over, exercising or even sleeping may become uncomfortable.
Chiropractors use hands-on techniques and other conservative approaches to address certain musculoskeletal problems and help improve function.
At Balanced Body Chiropractic, treatment recommendations are based on your individual examination rather than automatically providing the same adjustment to every patient.

Hero photo: This is where I'd use one of the new professional photographs of Dr. Hagner interacting with a patient—not an adjustment close-up. A consultation or movement assessment would be excellent.
If you've never visited a chiropractor, knowing what to expect can make the first appointment much more comfortable.
Your visit begins with a conversation.
Dr. Hagner will want to understand your current concerns, how long you've experienced them, previous injuries or treatments, relevant health history and what you hope to accomplish.
An examination can then help him better understand your condition. Depending upon your symptoms, this may involve evaluating areas such as movement, posture, joint function and other relevant findings.
After the evaluation, Dr. Hagner can discuss what he found and whether chiropractic treatment is appropriate.
Most importantly, you should understand the recommended plan and have an opportunity to ask questions before moving forward.

People visit chiropractors for many different musculoskeletal concerns. Some of the conditions commonly evaluated in chiropractic practices include:

Poor posture, prolonged computer use, injuries, joint restrictions and muscle tension can all contribute to neck discomfort.
Internal link: Neck Pain →
Sciatica
Sciatica commonly describes pain, tingling, numbness or other symptoms traveling along the path of the sciatic nerve, often into the buttock or leg. Because several conditions can produce similar symptoms, an appropriate evaluation is important.

Headaches
Some headaches originate from or are influenced by structures in the neck. These are different from many other types of headaches, which is why determining the likely source matters.

Internal link: Sports Injuries →
Pain can affect much more than the part of your body that hurts. It can interfere with sleep, work, exercise, family activities and the things you enjoy doing most.
At Balanced Body Chiropractic, we'll take the time to understand what's bothering you, evaluate your individual needs and help you determine an appropriate path forward.
Start with a conversation.
Where you feel pain doesn't always tell the entire story.
For example, discomfort in one area may be influenced by restricted movement, muscle tension, repetitive activities or movement patterns elsewhere in the body.
That's one reason Dr. Hagner doesn't want to know only “Where does it hurt?”
He also wants to understand questions such as:
-
When did it start?
-
What makes it better or worse?
-
Has there been an injury?
-
What activities are difficult now?
-
What does your work require physically?
-
What would you like to be able to do again?
That information helps put your symptoms into context and allows treatment recommendations to focus on your individual situation.
