Your first visit to a chiropractor typically includes a thorough health history review, physical examination, and discussion of your symptoms and health goals. The chiropractor may perform orthopedic and neurological tests to assess your condition.
Chiropractic care can help with a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. Schwenn Family Chiropractic has documented outcomes for these conditions:
Yes, chiropractic care is widely recognized as one of the safest, drug-free, non-invasive therapies available for the treatment of neuromusculoskeletal complaints. While no healthcare treatment is completely free of potential adverse effects, the risks associated with chiropractic care are very small. Many patients feel immediate relief after treatment.
For your first visit, bring your ID, insurance card (if applicable), a list of current medications, and any relevant medical records or imaging studies (X-rays, MRIs). Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for movement. Arrive 10-15 minutes early to complete paperwork.
Many health insurance plans cover chiropractic care in Iowa, including most PPO and HMO plans. Medicare also covers chiropractic adjustments for spinal subluxation. Coverage varies by plan, so contact your insurance provider or the clinic directly to verify your specific benefits and any out-of-pocket costs.
The number of visits varies based on your specific condition, its severity, and your health goals. Acute conditions may resolve in 4-12 visits, while chronic issues may require longer care. Your chiropractor will develop a personalized treatment plan and discuss expected timelines during your initial consultation.

What patients are saying about their care
"I continue to be blown away by Dr. Schwenn’s knowledge and ability to help. One night during pregnancy, I experienced severe sciatica pain truly 10/10, husband-has-to-help-me-move-in-bed level. I was close to going to the ER. By morning the pain was slightly more manageable (7–8/10, so I called Dr. Schwenn for a same-day appointment. Before my visit, every step sent shock-like pain down my leg and I was limping. After that first appointment, my pain dropped to a five and the shocks and limp were gone. A couple days later my pain had climbed back to a seven, so Dr. Schwenn tried a different adjustment on my pubic bone (which I didn’t even know was possible. That made a huge difference. With visits a few times each week, my pain has now decreased to typical pregnancy discomfort — mostly tightness and weakness that I’ll address with PT. Dr. Schwenn continues to monitor my pelvis throughout pregnancy and also works on ligaments and muscles, helping with even the “normal” pregnancy aches."
