Frequently Asked Questions

What makes that popping sound during an adjustment?

The sound is simply the release of tiny gas bubbles (cavitation) inside the joint fluid due to a rapid change in pressure. It is entirely harmless and doesn’t involve bones scraping together.

Are chiropractic adjustments safe?

Yes. Chiropractic care is globally recognized as one of the safest, non-invasive, drug-free healthcare paths available for neuromusculoskeletal conditions.

Do you treat patients from outside Flatiron?

Yes, while we’re proud to serve the Flatiron community, patients travel to our office from across Manhattan for our chiropractic care.
