Dr. Emilio Asks some important questions of interest to Lenexa residents - Chiropractor Lenexa Dr. Emilio Asks...

How come medical doctors don't recommend chiropractic?
That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more Lenexa folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.
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.
