What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a holistic healthcare profession that focuses on diagnosing and treating disorders of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems and understanding how these issues impact overall health. This form of care is particularly effective in addressing neuromusculoskeletal complaints, such as back pain, neck pain, joint discomfort in the arms or legs, and headaches.
Chiropractors take a drug-free, hands-on approach to healthcare, emphasizing patient evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment. With extensive training, they not only provide targeted care but also recommend therapeutic exercises, rehabilitation strategies, and lifestyle adjustments, including nutritional and dietary guidance.
One of the most recognized procedures in chiropractic care is spinal manipulation, commonly known as a chiropractic adjustment. This technique involves applying a controlled force to joints that have become restricted or immobile due to tissue injury. Such injuries may result from a sudden traumatic event, like improperly lifting a heavy object, or from repetitive stresses, such as maintaining poor posture over time.
When tissues are injured, they often undergo physical and chemical changes, leading to inflammation, pain, and limited function. Chiropractic adjustments restore joint mobility, alleviate pain and muscle tension, and support the natural healing process. This approach not only helps relieve discomfort but also promotes improved function and overall well-being.

Amazing massage therapists.Caitlin Schnaidt2024-06-07I can't speak highly enough about Dr. Berg and the entire teqm at Spaulding. I am pregnant and have been suffering from bad sciatica which made doing most basic things throughout the day extremely challenging. After starting to see Dr. Berg I am finally able to get through the day without being in a constant state of pain. He also sees my special needs toddler and we have seen great improvements in his physical movements and comfort level since beginning to see Dr. Berg. He is knowledgeable, professional, friendly, warm, and overall an amazing chiropractor. Everyone in the office is friendly, warm, and welcoming. I was very hesitant about starting to see a chiropractor while pregnant and have been nothing but pleasantly surprised and satisfied with the results of both my own, and my son's, experiences. If you're looking for a chiropractors office I highly recommend Dr. Berg and Spaulding chiropractic.Payton Baker2024-05-30Dr. Berg is hands down the best!

He is incredibly understanding and knowledgeable about the specific needs of pregnant women. He always takes the time to listen to my concerns and adjusts my treatments accordingly. His adjustments have helped to alleviate my lower back pain and improve my sleep. Most recently, my baby went from being in the breech position to head down after a couple of adjustments. Thanks to Dr. Berg's care, I’ve felt much more comfortable and mobile throughout my pregnancy. I highly recommend him to any pregnant women or any individual who is looking for a natural and effective way to manage aches and pains. Alisha Greenberg (Massage Therapist) and Teresa Grotkopp (Acupuncturist) I would also highly recommend.

His care shows in the form results from appointment to appointment.Cody Whiteley2024-05-09I took my 6 week old baby to see DR. Berg for hard to pass gas, excessive fussiness and instantly he was able to ease my baby. Over just a couple visits we noticed a huge difference and baby was much happier. We took him back again at 4 months because he was constipated - google told us it was normal to have inconsistent bowel movements around his age but it made him extremely fussy and uncomfortable. Within a couple hours after seeing DR Berg our baby began making regular bowel movements again and his mood improved drastically. My wife also saw Dr Berg after giving birth and having multiple complaints of pain and unusual sensations. He helped realign her pelvis, hips and relieve upper back/neck pain associated with breastfeeding/ holding baby. Dr Berg is incredibly knowledgeable, holistic and personable. He has a baby of his own so he is very gentle and intuitive. We cant recommend his expertise enough, he truly takes the time to listen, notice, and fix the problem or recommend resources or other specialists. To say the least, Chiropractic care with Dr Berg has been a game changer for both baby and momma. Fairbanks is truly lucky to have this high quality care.
Doctor of Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic adjustments are typically gentle and rarely cause discomfort. In some instances, patients may experience mild soreness or aching following treatment, similar to what one might feel after exercise. These sensations are usually short-lived, resolving within 12 to 48 hours.
For certain conditions, such as lower back pain, chiropractic care can serve as the primary treatment method. In cases where other medical conditions are present, chiropractic care often complements traditional medical treatments by addressing the musculoskeletal aspects of the condition, helping to alleviate associated pain and improve functionality.
Doctors of Chiropractic are skilled in evaluating patients through a comprehensive approach that includes clinical examinations, diagnostic imaging, laboratory testing, and other diagnostic techniques. This thorough assessment ensures that chiropractic treatment is appropriate and tailored to the patient’s specific needs.
If chiropractic care is not suitable for a particular condition or if the condition requires co-management with other healthcare providers, chiropractors readily refer patients to the appropriate specialists. This collaborative approach ensures patients receive the most effective care for their overall health and well-being.
