Dr. Harris Asks some important questions of interest to Hanover Park residents - Chiropractor Hanover Park Dr. Harris Asks...

Will chiropractic adjustments make my spine too loose?
No. Only the spinal joints that are fixated and "locked up" receive attention. The occasional spinal joint that moves too much is passed over so weakened muscles and ligaments can strengthen and heal.
Are aches and pains good or bad?
While aches or pains may be unpleasant, they're merely warning signs. As a Hanover Park chiropractor, I see this all the time. The pain is not the problem! It just means a limitation has been reached and something needs to change. That's when we get to work correcting the underlying cause.
