Frequently Asked Questions About Chiropractic Care and Boston Injury Rehab Performance

Discover Why BIRP is Different From Your Average Boston Chiropractor

These are the questions we get asked each and every day at BIRP. But before you read these questions and their corresponding answers, let us tell you the real reason why we wrote them here. Over the years of treating patients, a common theme has became clear. AFTER finishing a session or plan of care the patient would say, "You know, most people say they are different than other chiropractors, but you really ARE different!" The frustrating part was and still is, the only way for someone to see BIRP is different is for them to experience it.

This is our BEST ATTEMPT at helping people understand what we do at Boston Injury Rehab Performance and how we really are DIFFERENT and how we really can help you achieve long term results.

It is imperative you understand exactly what we do because few, if any, chiropractic clinics in Boston (or the East Coast) offer the service that we do, in the way that we do it.

I'm already seeing another chiropractor, why would I come see you?

The truth is that most chiropractors do about 10% of what we do at BIRP. In addition to what a 'typical' chiropractor may do, we offer many other services like soft tissue treatment, exercise programming, and rehab exercise and strength and conditioning. Most important, any treatment plan given is custom tailored to your specific needs. There is no such thing as one size fits all a Boston Injury Rehab Performance.
I don't want to be adjusted, do I have to be?

NO! In fact, we only adjust about 10-15% of the patients that come to the office. We have many other techniques and protocols that we can use to get the results that you need!
I'm going to physical therapy, why would I come see you?

BIRP provides all of the same services that a typical physical therapy clinic would. The difference is the time and personal attention you get at our clinic. Your entire visit is spent 1-1 with a doctor or therapist. We don't pass you to an aide or an assistant.
I've already got exercises from my physical therapist, why would I need MORE exercises?

The truth is that most exercises given in Physical Therapy are 'cookie cutter'. In other words, every person that walks in with back pain gets the same set of exercises, no matter what. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. You may have exercises to do, but they may not be the RIGHT exercises.
You talk so much about exercise. What does that have to do with chiropractic?

We believe that proper exercise is often the BEST form of medicine for anyone. Most people in pain will benefit from the 'mixed' approach of both chiropractic care as well as proper exercise.

Health Advice Disclaimer

We make every effort to ensure that we accurately represent the injury advice and prognosis displayed throughout these FAQs.

However, examples of injuries and their prognosis are based on typical representations of those injuries that we commonly see in our physiotherapy clinic. The information given is not intended as representations of every individual's potential injury. As with any injury, each person's symptoms can vary widely and each person's recovery from injury can also vary depending upon background, genetics, previous medical history, application of exercises, posture, motivation to follow medical advice and various other physical factors. It is impossible to give a 100% complete accurate diagnosis and prognosis without a thorough physical examination and likewise the advice given for management of an injury cannot be deemed fully accurate in the absence of this examination from a physician of Boston Injury Rehab Performance. We are able to offer you this service at a standard charge. Significant injury risk is possible if you do not follow due diligence and seek suitable professional advice about your injury. No guarantees of specific results are expressly made or implied in this report.
