Oxnard chiropractors

With so many myths out there regarding chiropractic care, it be can hard to know what is true. Discover the truth behind some of the most common chiropractic myths and then schedule an appointment with our Oxnard chiropractor.  

Myth: Chiropractors Only Treat Back Pain

Chiropractors can treat way more than just back pain. Our Oxnard chiropractor—Dr. Lemons—offers a variety of treatments, including spinal decompression, massage therapy, advanced rehabilitation, and chiropractic care. Chiropractic Wellness Center has the tools and team to treat your pain and injuries from head to toe.

Myth: Chiropractors Aren’t Doctors

DC stands for “Doctor of Chiropractic.” Chiropractors undergo three years of undergraduate school, and then four years of post-grad training and education. After all that work comes a board exam chiropractors must pass to practice chiropractic care in Oxnard or anywhere else in the world.

Dr. Lemons started practicing back in 1996 and is still helping countless patients to this day with back pain, neck pain, auto injuries, spinal conditions, and more.

Myth: Chiropractic Is Effective Only if You Get Treated Regularly

Like going to physical therapy, some health conditions or injuries do take regular treatment to heal or keep your pain in check. Dr. Lemons strives to help you get out of pain in as few treatments as possible whether it’s an old complaint or a recent injury. The sooner you feel great, the better.

Myth: Chiropractic Care is Dangerous

Surgery has significantly more risks than any form of chiropractic care. To optimize safety, Dr. Lemons will perform a physical evaluation for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Your care will match your needs and no one else’s.

Myth: Chiropractic Care is Expensive

Chiropractic Wellness Center accepts many health insurance carriers and has affordable cash options. Dr. Lemons offers chiropractic care through the latest proven and effective technology at affordable prices.
