Dr. Schneider Asks some important questions of interest to Brookings residents - Chiropractor Brookings Dr. Schneider Asks...

How long does it take to form a bone spur?
Many who begin chiropractic care think their problem happened "last week when you bent over funny." But pictures of the spine tell a different story. Chiropractors know it can take your body years to deposit the calcium necessary to form a bone spur. It's your body's response to stress due to gravity or joint malfunction. And chiropractic care can help.
Why do so many drugs require a prescription?
Because they can be dangerous? I chose a chiropractic career specifically because it avoids artificial means of pain relief. Our Brookings chiropractic practice attracts health-conscious families that prefer a safe and natural solution. Ready to get started? Call our office today.
