Chiropractic FAQ

Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?
Most patients find adjustments comfortable and often feel immediate relief afterward. Some experience mild muscle soreness for 24 to 48 hours similar to how your body feels after starting a new workout. This settles quickly. At Premier Spine and Sport in Vaughan we explain every technique before we use it and your comfort is always the priority.

How many visits will I need?
It depends on your specific condition, how long symptoms have been present, and how your body responds to treatment. After your initial assessment at Premier Spine and Sport we outline a clear realistic care plan so you know exactly what to expect and how long it will take. Most patients notice meaningful improvement within four to six visits.

Can chiropractic care help headaches?
Many tension headaches and cervicogenic headaches, headaches that originate from the neck  respond well to chiropractic care. Research shows cervical spine manipulation can significantly reduce headache frequency and intensity. At Premier Spine and Sport in Vaughan we assess whether your headaches have a mechanical component and build a care plan addressing the root cause rather than just the symptoms.

Is chiropractic covered by insurance?
Most extended health plans in Ontario include chiropractic coverage. At Premier Spine and Sport in Vaughan we direct bill Sunlife, Manulife, Great-West Life, Canada Life, Green Shield, and most major providers. Most patients in Vaughan and Concord pay little to nothing out of pocket. Call us at 289-472-5571 to confirm your specific coverage before your first visit.

Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor in Vaughan?
No referral is needed. Chiropractors in Ontario are primary contact practitioners you can book directly without seeing a family doctor first. You can book online at premierspineandsport.ca or call us directly at 289-472-5571.

Do you treat athletes and active people?
Yes. We work with recreational and competitive athletes across Vaughan and the GTA on injury recovery, return-to-sport decisions, mobility work, and injury prevention. Whether you play golf, run, train at the gym, or play recreational sports  we build care plans around your performance goals.

What is the difference between chiropractic and physiotherapy?
Chiropractors specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the spine, joints, and nervous system using hands-on adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and exercise rehabilitation. At Premier Spine and Sport in Vaughan we also work closely with our Registered Massage Therapist to provide integrated care that addresses both the structural and soft tissue components of your pain.

Can I refuse to be adjusted?
Your comfort is our number one priority. Not every patient requires spinal manipulation and not every condition is best treated with adjustments. Our practitioners are trained in multiple soft tissue techniques and rehabilitation approaches so your care plan is always built around what works best for you specifically.

I was diagnosed with Radiculopathy (a pinched nerve on my upper back and the pain radiated from the back to my right arm). Out of 10 the pain intensity was 11. I've gone through a couple of physio and acupuncturist but Dr Melvin Liu I could say was the only one who helped me heal and manage my pain. He is thorough, professional, knowledgeable. He gave a well rounded and holistic plan to get me back in shape with acupuncture, exercises, and red light therapy. I am a firm believer that acupuncture really helped heal with the inflammation in my body. I Highly recommend Dr Melvin Liu!

Marie Kristine Reyes

...Dr. Melvin Liu has been treating my herniated disc and has been the only clinician thus far who's been able to effectively treat it. I've seen 3 other clinicians prior to Dr. Liu who misdiagnosed the issue and provided mediocre care. Dr. Liu is very knowledgeable and skilled, as well as friendly and welcoming. He has put me at ease and really helped me. I highly recommend Dr. Liu!
Derek Am

I've been seeing Dr. Melvin Liu for my back pain and headaches since I started working from home and he's one of the most patient and caring doctors I've ever had. I've seen other healthcare practitioners before, none others were able to alleviate my pain but Dr. Melvin took his time with me. He listens and he genuinely cares for his patients. I've only ever had great experiences with him.
