Is Chiropractic An Essential Service?
Yes! On March 28, 2020, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security released a memo listing Chiropractic offices as a business and service that is to remain operational throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Chiropractic care helps take some of the load off our overburdened hospitals and emergency rooms by by providing treatment for back and neck pain before it becomes unbearable. Chiropractic adjustments reduce interference to the nervous system's ability to perform optimally. Since the nervous system controls all functions of the body (including the immune system) chiropractic care can have a positive effect on immune function.
COVID-19 Response
We are committed to staying open and serving our community as long as it is safe to do so. Our office is taking extra precautions to keep our patients and staff safe. These include: temperature checking, increased hand washing, sanitizing after every patient with alcohol-based wipes and sprays, and scheduling changes to reduce the number of people in the office at once.
We ask that if you are experiencing any one of the following symptoms: sore throat, fever, or shortness of breath, new loss of taste or smell, nausea or vomiting that you remain at home for now as a safeguard. Please wear a mask when entering the office. If you forget to bring one we can provide one for you!
