Frequently Asked Questions About Chiropractic Care
Can a chiropractor help with disc bulge or spinal stenosis?
Dr. Strother specializes in evaluating difficult spine conditions including disc bulge, herniated discs, and spinal stenosis. He uses NeuroStructural Correction and spinal decompression therapy as part of his approach. Whether chiropractic is right for your specific case depends on the evaluation — if he can help, he'll let you know. If he can't, he'll tell you that too and help point you in the right direction.
What conditions does Corrective Chiropractic treat?
We specialize in evaluating and working with back pain, neck pain, disc bulge, spinal stenosis, sciatica, radicular pain (arm pain and leg pain from nerve compression), chronic pain, joint inflammation, autoimmune-related musculoskeletal issues, headaches, shoulder pain, carpal tunnel, neuropathy, and difficult spine pain that hasn't responded to other treatments. Every case starts with an honest evaluation to determine if we're the right fit.
Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor in New Buffalo, MI?
No referral is needed. You can schedule an appointment directly by calling or texting (269) 469-1310. Chiropractors are primary care providers and can be seen without a physician referral. We serve patients from New Buffalo, Michigan City, Three Oaks, Sawyer, Bridgman, and the surrounding Southwest Michigan and Northwest Indiana area.
Do you offer massage therapy near New Buffalo and Michigan City?
Yes. Corrective Chiropractic offers professional massage therapy including deep tissue massage, therapeutic massage, and chair massage. Our massage therapists work alongside Dr. Strother to complement your chiropractic care. We serve patients looking for massage near New Buffalo, Michigan City, and the surrounding area. Call (269) 469-1310 to book.
Do you accept walk-in chiropractic appointments?
We recommend calling ahead, but same-day appointments are often available. If you're looking for a walk-in chiropractor near you, call (269) 469-1310 to check today's availability. We do our best to accommodate urgent cases.
What should I expect on my first visit for back pain or neck pain?
Expect a conversation about this episode: where it hurts, how it started, and what has already failed. Injections, therapy, medication, time off, a previous adjustment that did not hold. Dr. Strother is listening for whether corrective chiropractic is a fit for your back or neck, and he can review any imaging you already have. You leave with a yes, a no, or a recommendation to continue into an exam. If you continue, that exam can include the clinic's latest high-frequency X-ray imaging and high-tech testing, so the findings come from a test, not a guess. You choose that next step with him. The consult itself is not a promise of care and not a requirement to be imaged.
Can chiropractic care help with sciatica and radicular pain?
Sciatica and radicular pain (pain that radiates into the arms or legs) are among the most common conditions we evaluate and work with. Dr. Strother uses spinal decompression, corrective adjustments, and rehabilitative exercises as part of his approach. Results vary by individual — he'll assess your specific case and give you an honest picture of what's realistic.
Do you accept insurance for chiropractic and massage services?
Your specific situation deserves to be understood. We'll review your financial responsibilities with you after your customized exam and testing, and again with your treatment plan.
Can chiropractic help with chronic pain and autoimmune joint inflammation?
Chronic pain and joint inflammation — including conditions related to autoimmune disorders — are conditions Dr. Strother regularly evaluates. He takes a whole-body approach and will give you an honest assessment of whether chiropractic care is appropriate for your situation. Not every case is a fit, and he'll tell you directly either way.
