The basics
About chiropractic care
Your spine is made up of 24 movable vertebrae, and when even one joint loses its normal range of motion, the muscles, discs, and nerves around it can suffer. Over time those small restrictions add up — producing the back pain, neck pain, headaches, or radiating nerve pain that brings most patients through our door. Chiropractic care works by identifying and correcting these restricted joints so the whole system can function the way it should.
The adjustment itself is a quick, controlled movement applied to a specific joint — not a general crack-and-go routine. Dr. Murray performs orthopedic and movement testing before every plan so each adjustment is targeted to what your exam shows. This approach is safe and effective for patients of all ages, from young children to active seniors, and it works alongside gentle low-force techniques and [myofascial release](/services/myofascial-release/) for complex cases.

What is chiropractic care?
A chiropractic adjustment is a precise, controlled movement applied to a spinal joint that has lost its normal range of motion. When joints become restricted — from an old injury, poor posture, repetitive strain, or just the wear of daily life — the muscles around them tighten, discs absorb uneven load, and nearby nerves can become irritated. That’s what produces the back pain, neck pain, headaches, and radiating nerve symptoms that send most people looking for help.
Chiropractic care corrects the problem at its source. By restoring normal joint motion, adjustments relieve nerve pressure, reduce muscle tension, and let the spine carry load the way it was designed to. It’s drug-free, non-invasive, and backed by decades of research as a first-line treatment for spinal and musculoskeletal pain.
At Embrun Chiropractic Clinic in Embrun, every adjustment is preceded by a thorough exam — orthopedic and movement testing that shows Dr. Murray exactly which joints are restricted and which techniques will work best for your spine. Nothing is guessed, and nothing is one-size-fits-all.
What to expect
Your first visit takes about 45–60 minutes. Dr. Murray begins by listening — when the pain started, what makes it better or worse, and how it’s affecting your work, sleep, and daily routine. From there, a hands-on orthopedic and neurological exam pinpoints the restricted joints and any nerve involvement driving your symptoms. We order imaging only when the findings suggest it will change your care.
After the exam, you get a plain-English explanation of what we found and a specific, time-bound care plan with a real endpoint. Many patients receive a gentle adjustment on the same visit. Follow-up visits typically run 15–30 minutes — focused, efficient, and built around your progress. As your spine responds, we update the plan so you’re always moving forward, never spinning wheels.
Who it helps
Chiropractic care is appropriate for a wide range of patients and conditions. We regularly help Embrun-area adults and children with:
- Back pain — lower, upper, and mid-back from strain, disc problems, or posture
- Neck pain and headaches driven by restricted cervical joints
- Sciatica and pinched nerves radiating into the arms or legs
- Whiplash and auto-accident injuries
- Scoliosis management and postural correction
- Hip pain and referred pain from lumbar restrictions

What it helps
Conditions we treat with chiropractic care
Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?+
Most patients feel little to no discomfort. Adjustments are quick and gentle, and many people feel relief right away. Some patients notice mild muscle soreness for a day or two — similar to a light workout — which fades quickly.
How many visits will I need?+
It depends on your condition and goals. After your exam, Dr. Murray will recommend a specific, time-bound care plan rather than open-ended treatment. Many patients feel significant improvement within the first few weeks.
What conditions does chiropractic care treat?+
We commonly help patients with back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, whiplash, scoliosis, vertigo, hip pain, and pinched nerves — among others. If you're unsure whether your condition fits, call us and we'll be straightforward about whether an exam makes sense.
Is chiropractic care safe?+
Yes. Chiropractic adjustments are one of the safest, most well-studied drug-free treatments for spinal and musculoskeletal pain. We screen every new patient thoroughly before beginning care and tailor techniques to your age, health, and comfort level.
Is chiropractic care safe during pregnancy?+
Yes — with appropriate technique. Dr. Murray uses gentle, pregnancy-safe adjustments and positioning that relieve pelvic, low-back, and hip discomfort without any risk to mom or baby. We also offer the Webster Technique specifically for prenatal care.
Can children get chiropractic adjustments?+
Absolutely. Pediatric adjustments use very light, fingertip pressure — completely different from adult technique — and are safe for infants through teens. Parents often bring children in for colic, posture concerns, or sports injuries.
Will my insurance cover chiropractic care?+
Most major insurance plans cover chiropractic adjustments, and we accept many of them. We'll verify your benefits before your first visit so you know your out-of-pocket costs upfront. Affordable self-pay plans are also available.
Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor?+
No. Ontario is a direct-access state — you can book an appointment without a physician referral. Just call or book online and we'll get you in quickly.
How is chiropractic different from myofascial release?+
Myofascial release works on soft tissue — the fascia and muscles around a joint. Chiropractic adjustments target the spinal joints themselves to restore motion and reduce nerve pressure. We often combine both for faster, more lasting results.
What should I expect on my first visit?+
Your first appointment takes about 45–60 minutes. We review your history, perform a thorough exam, explain what we found in plain English, and — when appropriate — begin gentle treatment the same day.
