Finding The Best Chiropractor in Edmonds for You


Everyone is looking for the best chiropractor, and rightfully so. It would be crazy to want the second-best chiropractor and even more crazy to want the worst chiropractor. But with so many chiropractors to choose from, how do you know who’s the best? That’s a great question.

The simple answer isn’t very simple at all. The best chiropractor for one person is often not the best chiropractor for someone else. That’s why one person can go around telling anyone who will listen, “My chiropractor is the best,” while another person goes around saying “That chiropractor is just OK”, and they are both talking about the same chiropractor. 

Some chiropractors are better at helping kids. Some chiropractors are better at helping athletes. Some chiropractors are better at helping senior citizens. Some chiropractors are better at helping people with headaches. There are so many different types of people, conditions, and chiropractors to take care of them, this list could go on forever.

Here at Journey Family Chiropractic, our goal is always to be the best chiropractor in Edmonds, but we know that we aren’t going to be the best chiropractor for everyone in the area. That’s why we encourage people to visit our website, read our reviews, and check out our social media pages. We want our future patients to get a feel for who we are and how we can help them before they ever schedule their first appointment.

Hopefully, the end result will be that the people who are the best fit for us will know they found the right place, and we will have the opportunity to be the best chiropractor for them.


3 Traits of the Best Chiropractors

01 The Best Chiropractors Listen

You may already know what it’s like to make an appointment with a doctor or some other type of professional who isn’t really listening when you are speaking. It’s really frustrating. Unfortunately, some chiropractors are like that, too. This is a very bad sign. 

If you make an appointment with a chiropractor and you feel like they aren’t listening to you, I would strongly suggest that you walk away. They are not the best chiropractor for you.

02 The Best Chiropractors Work With You

People visit chiropractors for a wide variety of reasons. Your reasons for scheduling an appointment is probably very different than my reasons. That’s why it’s important that you and your chiropractor are on the same page. 

One person may go to a chiropractor because they want relief from pregnancy pain. Another person may go to the chiropractor because they want to recover from an injury and get back to playing sports. Someone else may go to the chiropractor because they suffer from chronic headaches.

Each person described has different goals for care, and they require a different treatment plan to achieve those goals. The best chiropractors will work with their patients and tailor their treatment so that each individual patient reaches their specific goals. 

03 The Best Chiropractors Refer You Out If Necessary

Some people say that chiropractors think they can cure everything. That’s simply not true. While there are many things that respond well to chiropractic care, there are also just as many things that do not.

For instance, if someone showed up to the chiropractor with a broken arm, they need to be referred out. Or if someone arrived at the chiropractor’s office showing signs of a stroke or a heart attack, that person should be referred to the hospital. The chiropractor isn’t going to be the best fit for those problems.

It’s a bad sign if a chiropractor thinks they can fix everything and everyone or is unwilling to refer to other medical professionals if necessary. Regardless of whether a patient has a major health crisis or they just aren’t responding to chiropractic care as expected, the best chiropractors are willing to refer them out to someone who may be able to help.
