Question
two questions-do you have to have health insurance to attend a chiropractor?
two im having severe lower back pains. right at the end of my spine. for example if i bend over to touch my toes when i get about four inches from my toes my back starts to hurt. it feels like two parts are being pulled in the opposite direction. constant throbbing pain. even when im sitting up straight. when i sit down on that part of my butt/back even on a pillow it hurts. so what do youthink-chiropractor?

Answer
Christina,

Thank you for your question and I hope I can help.

No you do not have to have insurance to see a chiropractor.  I am sure you will find a doctor who would accept cash or check as payment.

As far as your back pain, it sounds like you may be having what is called lumbar facet syndrome.  This involves the lower back joints, where the vertebral bones connect together.  The joints will be jammed together and cause lower back pain when movement or stress is put upon them.  Often, the pain will be relieved with lying down.

I recommend seeing a chiropractor for an evaluation to determine if this is what is going on. The treatment involved manipulation of the lower back joints, which relieves and eliminates this pressure and relieves and eliminates the pain.

I hope this helps and good luck.

God Bless,

Dr. Boss
