Schedule a Visit with Our Albany ChiropractorWhat Is a Chiropractor?
Chiropractors are licensed healthcare professionals whose training focuses on the body’s natural ability to heal itself. They support that healing through hands-on treatments such as spinal manipulation, manual therapy, exercise, and lifestyle guidance. Chiropractors can also diagnose conditions by reviewing your health history, performing a physical exam, and ordering imaging or other tests.
Becoming a chiropractor takes years of rigorous training. Most chiropractors complete at least three years of undergraduate study, followed by a four-year Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) program accredited through the U.S. Department of Education. They must then pass national board exams and earn a state license. In Oregon, chiropractors are licensed by the Oregon Board of Chiropractic Examiners and must complete continuing education to keep their license active.
What a Chiropractor Can Help With
Chiropractors are best known for treating back and neck pain, but they help with many other musculoskeletal and nerve-related problems. Patients often visit our Albany clinic for the following.
- Back pain and neck pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Sciatica and pinched nerves
- Herniated and bulging discs
- Knee pain and other joint pain
- Auto accident injuries and whiplash
- Sports and work injuries

Chiropractors also look at how spinal and joint problems affect your overall health. They can offer guidance on exercise, posture, weight management, and stress to help you stay well.
