When You Shouldn't Get Adjusted—and What to Do Instead

Chiropractic care offers incredible healing potential, yet it’s not always the appropriate choice for every situation. Flower Mound Chiropractor Dustin Campbell, D.C., QNCP, takes a thoughtful, comprehensive approach to patient care that goes far beyond traditional adjustments. He carefully evaluates each person’s unique circumstances to determine the safest and most effective treatment path.

Recognizing When Adjustments Aren’t Right

Several conditions require alternative approaches to healing. Recent fractures, severe inflammation, active infections near the spine, and post-surgical instability all warrant careful consideration before any manual therapy. Certain neurological conditions and uncontrolled osteoporosis also make traditional adjustments inadvisable.

A Thorough Assessment Comes First

Every new patient undergoes thorough neurological and structural testing. This detailed evaluation ensures that all care remains personalized, safe, and perfectly aligned with current health status. Our chiropractor believes in getting to the root cause rather than simply treating symptoms.

An Array of Approaches to Help You Heal

When adjustments aren’t suitable, numerous other therapies can provide significant relief. Quantum Neurology® Rehabilitation, red light therapy, acupuncture, and applied kinesiology offer gentle yet effective solutions. Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) and nutritional testing round out a comprehensive toolkit designed to reduce inflammation and restore balance without spinal manipulation.

Dr. Campbell, D.C.’s background in functional nutrition and personal experience with autoimmune disease have shaped his philosophy of using the right tool at the right time. His mission focuses on long-term wellness, not just temporary relief.
