Dr. Stacey Asks...

Are chiropractors just concerned with the spine?

Our interest in the spine is because it covers the major communications conduit between your brain and your body. As a Wasilla chiropractor my job is to locate areas (usually along the spine) that interfere with proper nerve communications to and from your brain. Chiropractic adjustments help restore nervous system integrity. In this way, chiropractic care can affect the function of your entire body.

What's the purpose of a surgeon's mask?

When I ask most people in Wasilla this, most think it protects the patient from the doctor's germs. But it's so porous it does little to prevent the passage of germs. We chiropractors don't bother with masks.
