“I just need my back cracked.”
Our chiros hear this almost every week, and to be fair, we get why. A lot of people grew up believing chiropractic care is a quick crack, a few seconds on the table, and then out the door. And yes, some chiropractors still practice that way. If that is what someone wants, there are plenty of clinics that can give them exactly that.
But at Defy, our chiropractors do things differently. We do not build our care around chasing the next adjustment. We build it around understanding the whole picture of what is happening in your body and what you are trying to get back to.
Our chiros perform full assessments that look at movement, strength, lifestyle load, training history, and the factors actually contributing to your symptoms. They create specific rehab plans that match your goals, not just your diagnosis. They help coordinate imaging requisitions when needed. They prescribe and coach you through exercises so you know exactly how to progress. They educate you so you understand your injury, your plan, and what each step is meant to achieve.
Cracking a joint might give temporary relief, but it is the combination of education, rehab, training, and thoughtful progressions that builds results that last. This approach takes more time and more collaboration, but it also builds more confidence, more capacity, and more control. It helps you feel like an active participant in your recovery instead of a passive recipient of treatment.
If you have only ever experienced the quick in-and-out model, it makes sense that you would not know there is another way. But there is. And it is one that actually empowers you to understand your body and move forward with clarity and skill.
If you want to experience chiropractic care that goes beyond the cracky cracky, book a discovery call with one of our chiros and see the difference for yourself.
