Frequently Asked Chiropractic Questions

Your Lancaster Chiropractic Questions Answered

At Life Potential Chiropractic, we understand that new patients often have many questions before their first visit. Whether you’re curious about NetworkSpinal care, appointment details, or insurance coverage, we’ve gathered the most common questions asked by our Lancaster, PA chiropractic patients — along with clear, helpful answers.

1. What is chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care focuses on improving the function of your spine and nervous system to enhance your body’s natural ability to heal. By using gentle, precise adjustments, chiropractors help relieve tension, restore balance, and improve posture, movement, and overall wellbeing.

Network spinal is a gentle, non-invasive approach that focuses on the connection between your brain, spine, and body. Instead of traditional “cracking” adjustments, it uses light touches along the spine to help your nervous system release stored tension and develop new strategies for self-healing.

Many patients in Lancaster, PA report feeling more relaxed, energized, and emotionally balanced after network spinal care.

While many people seek chiropractic care for back pain, neck pain, or headaches, it also supports a variety of other concerns, including: 

  • Posture and spinal alignment 
  • Stress and fatigue 
  • Muscle stiffness and joint discomfort 
  • Sciatica or nerve-related pain 
  • Sleep and energy balance 
  • Overall wellness and nervous system function 

Your first appointment includes a thorough consultation, a review of your health history, and a gentle spinal evaluation. We’ll discuss your concerns, explain our approach, and create a personalized care plan.

No adjustments are performed during the initial visit until we’ve completed your full assessment and discussed your options.

Not at all. Most patients describe the process as relaxing or relieving. Network spinal adjustments are especially gentle — there’s no twisting, cracking, or popping involved. You might feel warmth, light movement, or deep relaxation as your body releases stored stress.

The number of visits depends on your condition, goals, and how your body responds to care. Some patients notice improvement in just a few sessions, while others choose long-term wellness care to maintain alignment and stress resilience.

Life Potential Chiropractic is a cash-based practice, meaning we do not directly bill insurance.

Absolutely. Chiropractic care — especially the chiropractic techniques that Dr. Tony Miller implements — is safe and beneficial for pregnant women, children, seniors, and individuals managing chronic health conditions. Our techniques are gentle and tailored to your body’s needs at every stage of life.

Your first visit may take around 45–60 minutes to complete your consultation and assessment. Follow-up visits are typically 15–20 minutes, depending on your care plan and progress.
