Dr. Merrill Asks some important questions of interest to Midtown East residents - Chiropractor Midtown East Dr. Merrill Asks...

Can someone who has had back surgery receive chiropractic care?
Yes. Rest assured that we will avoid the surgically modified areas of your spine. However, what we find is that surgical interventions will often produce spinal instability above or below the involved level. This is will be the focus of your chiropractic care.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Midtown East parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.

Your First Visit to Our Midtown East Practice

New patients are warmly welcomed to our Midtown East chiropractic office.

Our patients often remark how warm and relaxed the office is.  You'll find we have designed the space to be comfortable and casual to make you feel at home.

The Consultation

The purpose of our initial consultation is so we can get to know each other and determine if we can help.

We Listen

We will review your health history, in addition, to listening to your health concerns.  If we don't think we can help, we will tell you.

The Chiropractic Assessment

Our thorough chiropractic examination might be very different than other health practitioners you have visited.  Our goal is to determine what areas of your spine and nervous system are involved and related to any of your health challenges.  Range of motion tests, some orthopedic and neurologic tests, leg length analysis and static/motion palpation of your spine are common ways to analyze your "weak links" along the spine.

The Adjustment

In most situations, but, always based on the professional judgement of Dr. Rudin, you will receive your first chiropractic spinal adjustment.  The first session can vary in time, depending on your history, however, you can plan on at least 30-45 minutes.
