Your First Visit to Our Philadelphia Practice

You will be warmly welcomed and made to feel at home. Help is on its way!

The first visit takes about an hour (ours is not an office that generally keeps people waiting). To find out if we can help you, we ask questions and listen and discuss. We generally do not provide care on the first visit unless a person is in severe pain and needs some relief. Often (unless it is due to a recent accident or injury) a person comes to us with a problem they've had for some time. It is important to carefully examine and determine what is causing the problem so it can be properly and safely treated, rather than just begin care without a complete clinical picture.

We no longer keep X-ray equipment on the premises, so if we feel you need radiographs, MRI or any other studies, we will refer you to a convenient facility. If you have recent studies, bring them.

Dr. Rush  Asks some important questions of interest to Philadelphia residents - Chiropractor Philadelphia Dr. Rush Asks...

Would you rather feel good or be healthy?
Ask most people in Philadelphia and they want to feel good. Careful! Would you take medicine that makes you feel good, rather than vomit to expel improperly prepared food? Every chiropractic patient knows that you can't measure your health by how you feel. True health is when your body works as it should.
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.
