Wellness Chiropractic Care in Charlotte
Throughout everyday life, misalignments in your spine happen (subluxation). You don't have to have an injury or other event to cause it. It just happens from normal daily activity. Subluxations often put pressure on your nervous system. This results in pain, swelling, and fewer signals passing throughout your body.
Stay on top of misalignments that lead to pain and complications down the road.

The basics
About wellness chiropractic care
Wellness chiropractic care — sometimes called maintenance care — means scheduling periodic spinal checkups even when nothing hurts. Everyday life in Charlotte creates small spinal misalignments (subluxations) without any injury at all, and those misalignments can put pressure on your nervous system long before pain shows up.
Just as dentists recommend regular cleanings to protect your teeth, periodic chiropractic visits help keep your spine aligned, keep pressure off your nerves, and keep your body performing at its best. Gentle adjustments catch small issues before they develop into more serious problems.
There is no one-size-fits-all schedule. Some patients benefit from more frequent visits while others come in monthly — Dr. Craig Schulman reviews your health history and goals to build a wellness plan that fits your life.

Relief from pain and stiffness in the neck, back, and other regions of the body
Improved joint mobility and range of motion

How Frequently Should You See a Chiropractor?
The frequency of your visits may vary over the course of your life and depending on what’s going on with your health. Our team will review your health history to determine what makes sense for your scenario. Some people see us multiple times a week, while others we see once a month. Everyone’s health is different, so no two wellness plans are exactly the same.
What to Expect at Your First Wellness Care Visit in Charlotte
Free consultation. Wellness care starts with a complimentary consultation with Dr. Craig Schulman — on the phone or in person — to talk through your health history and goals.

Your custom wellness plan. Based on what we find, we build a visit schedule that fits your life — some patients come weekly, others monthly. No two plans are the same.
Gentle adjustments. Each visit uses gentle chiropractic adjustments to keep your spine aligned and pressure off your nerves.
Simple payments. Our care plans and payment options make ongoing wellness care easy to keep up with.

“I came into Dr. Schulman's office with severe sciatica pain, heel pain on right, and such a tight neck that I couldn't sleep at night from throbbing aches and pains. Now that I've been seeing Dr. Schulman for 3 months now, I'm running with my dogs again, and getting back into the gym without any back or neck pain. Best decision I ever made for self care! Highly recommend!”
