Chiropractic Care

Restoring Movement and Relieving Pain

Chiropractic care at Reset Chiropractic & Rehab is designed to reduce pain, restore movement, and improve how the spine and joints work during everyday life. Whether your symptoms started suddenly or have been building over time, the goal is the same: help you move better so you can return to work, family life, and training with more confidence. Care is not based on quick fixes alone. Instead, the focus is on identifying what is driving the problem and building a plan around function.

Many patients come in during an acute flare-up, like a back that locks up after lifting, bending, sleeping awkwardly, or a gym tweak. Others come in for ongoing stiffness, posture-related discomfort, headaches linked to neck tension, or recurring episodes that keep returning. We also offer maintenance care for patients who want to keep their spine moving well and reduce future flare-ups.

What Makes Us Different

Dr. Pileggi and Dr. Bali follow a diagnosis-first, evidence-informed approach. That means every plan starts with assessing what is causing your symptoms and how they are affecting your movement. Treatment is built around what you need to return to function, not a one-size-fits-all routine.

Because our practice is a multidisciplinary clinic, chiropractic care can be coordinated with physiotherapy and massage when appropriate. This helps keep your plan consistent and aligned, especially when you need hands-on care and rehab progressions working together.

Concerns Commonly Seen in Our Clinic

Chiropractic care at our practice commonly helps patients manage pain and stiffness while improving mobility. Presentations often include back and neck issues, headaches related to neck tension, and joint restrictions that affect movement quality.

Common reasons people book include:

Sudden low back pain and locked up backs
Acute neck pain and stiffness
Mid-back tightness or spasm that makes twisting difficult
Headaches linked to neck tension patterns
Sciatica-like symptoms

Shoulder pain from lifting, reaching, or sleeping positions
Hip tightness and mobility restrictions
Sports and gym flare-ups including strains and sprains
Workplace injuries and accident-related recovery

Your First Appointment and What to Expect

Your first appointment is focused on understanding what is causing your pain and building a clear plan. It typically includes a consultation and history, a physical exam with movement testing, orthopedic tests as needed, and a neurological screen. You will then receive an explanation in plain language of what the chiropractor believes is going on, what structures may be irritated, and what typically helps.

If care is appropriate that day, treatment may include manipulation or adjustments, mobilization, acupuncture, and soft tissue work based on your presentation. You will also leave with home guidance such as mobility exercises, posture tips, and activity modifications to help you keep improving between visits.

Progress, Visit Frequency, and Long Term Planning

Many acute patients notice meaningful change over a course of care, often around 6 to 8 sessions. Frequency is not fixed. Our chiropractors track progress using objective reassessments, plus real-world functional markers such as driving comfort, sitting and standing tolerance, walking the dog, playing with children, or returning to the gym. As you improve, visits are typically spaced out. This approach is supportive because it connects clinic progress to the activities that matter most to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is chiropractic care safe for acute pain?

Chiropractic care can be appropriate for acute pain when it is preceded by a proper assessment. A thorough history, red flag screening, and focused testing help determine whether chiropractic care is suitable. If symptoms suggest you need imaging or medical evaluation, the right next step will be recommended.

Do adjustments hurt?

Most adjustments are not painful, but you may feel brief pressure or a release. Some people notice mild soreness afterward, similar to starting a new workout, especially during early visits. Techniques can be selected based on comfort and how reactive the area is at the time.

What is the popping sound during an adjustment?

The popping sound is commonly caused by gas bubbles in the joint fluid releasing when a joint moves quickly through its normal range. As the joint surfaces separate slightly, pressure changes and dissolved gases release. This is known as joint cavitation.

Do I have to keep coming forever?

No. Some people attend short term for an acute issue, while others choose periodic maintenance because it helps them stay mobile and reduce flare-ups. Care should be recommended based on your goals and how you respond, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

How soon should I book after symptoms start?

In general, it is reasonable to book when symptoms are limiting daily activity, worsening, or not improving within 24 to 72 hours. If pain is sharp, you feel locked up, or your range of motion is noticeably reduced, earlier assessment can be helpful.

Schedule Your Chiropractic Assessment

If you are compensating, avoiding movement, or feeling restricted, an early assessment can help clarify what is driving the issue and what steps may help you return to function.
