Dr. Jeffrey Asks...

How come medical doctors don't recommend chiropractic?

That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more McMinnville folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.

What is the purpose of pain?

Pain prompts many McMinnville folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
