STILL NOT SURE?

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand you may still have questions about our services.

What makes The BodyFix different from other chiropractic clinics?

At The BodyFix, we go beyond quick “crack and go” adjustments. Every treatment is personalized to your diagnosis and focused on targeting the root cause of your pain. Dr. Mario combines soft tissue work, Active Release Technique (ART), joint mobilization, and precise chiropractic adjustments to restore motion and improve function—not just mask symptoms.

How long are chiropractic treatments?

Our chiropractic sessions are typically 20–30 minutes, giving Dr. Mario time to assess your condition and deliver a tailored blend of soft tissue techniques, adjustments, and therapeutic care for better, longer-lasting results.

What does a chiropractic visit feel like?

You’ll receive hands-on care that may include soft tissue manipulation, Active Release Technique (ART), joint mobilization, and adjustments. We focus on motion and function, helping muscles, joints, and nerves work better together. Patients usually find it comfortable and informative.

Can chiropractic help problems beyond back pain?

Yes. Dr. Mario treats a wide range of musculoskeletal issues—from TMJ headaches and shoulder pain down to knee, hip, and foot problems like plantar fasciitis—because we look at how your whole body functions, not just one area.

What is Spinal Decompression Therapy, and how is it different from traction?

Our Spinal Decompression Therapy uses advanced, precise equipment that gently creates space in the spinal discs to reduce nerve pressure and promote healing. Unlike old-style traction, which can be rough and broad, this modern system targets the specific spinal segment causing your issue, making it gentle, comfortable, and highly effective.

Is spinal decompression painful?

Most patients find it very comfortable—often relaxing or even falling asleep during treatment. It doesn’t pull the spine harshly like outdated traction machines, so it’s much gentler and more precise.

What is Class IV Laser Therapy, and how does it help?

Our Class IV Laser Therapy is a progressive healing tool that uses therapeutic light energy to reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue healing, and ease pain. It’s non-invasive, painless, and especially effective for stubborn soft tissue injuries and chronic inflammation.

What is Red Light Therapy and how does it help me?

The full-body Vita Red Light Therapy Bed we offer uses medical-grade red and near-infrared light to support cellular healing, improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall recovery and wellness—not just surface effects. It’s gentle, relaxing, and builds results over time.

What is Knee Decompression Therapy (Knee On Trac)?

Knee On Trac gently decompresses the knee joint, reducing pressure and inflammation and helping improve range of motion and comfort. It’s a non-surgical, precise treatment that can help many people avoid invasive procedures and get back to normal movement.

How many visits will I need?

This varies based on your diagnosis and goals. Dr. Mario will recommend a customized plan to get you results as efficiently as possible. Many patients with higher pain or inflammation start with multiple visits per week initially, then transition to fewer sessions as they improve.

Will insurance cover my treatments?

The BodyFix operates on a cash-based model so we can offer higher quality, unrestricted care tailored to your needs. We can provide receipts or documentation if you want to submit to your insurance, but coverage depends on your individual plan.

What should I do if I’m not sure what’s causing my pain?

If you’re unsure about your diagnosis or whether we can help, just give us a call — our team will answer your questions and guide you toward the right first step.
