Just as you would with a visit to the doctor’s office, you will be guided into an examination room that contains a chiropractic table. You will be asked about your condition and the chiropractor will let you know the treatment recommended. A thorough history of your health condition will be examined as well as any x-rays that may have been taken. You will then be asked to lie down or sit down on the table and the chiropractor will start the treatment session.
During the session you may hear popping sounds when the adjustments are made. These are tiny gas pockets that are being released from the joints. It sounds much like the sound you’d hear if you cracked your knuckles. This sound is nothing to worry about and is not an indication of whether the adjustment is working or not.
